Meme Insider
Shih Tzu (SHIH) is a meme-inspired utility token with a heart: it blends the fun of meme culture with a mission to support animal welfare. Originally launched in April 2021 on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token, SHIH later expanded to the BNB Chain to reach a broader, lower-fee user base. The project’s vision centers on building “ShihWorld,” an ecosystem that includes gaming, NFTs, and community revenue-sharing — all while raising funds for animal rights initiatives.
