According to Shibizens, a dedicated Shiba Inu news source on X, Shiba Inu (SHIB) is now available for lending through SBI VC Trade in Japan.
SBI VC Trade is continuing its program that lets users borrow against their cryptocurrency, including Shiba Inu. Members of the Shiba Inu community, known as Shibizens, have noted that this ongoing program shows SHIB is still available for lending on the platform.
SBI VC Trade, a lending platform in Japan, is now including Shiba Inu (SHIB) in its “Rent Coin” program. This means users can borrow against or lend their SHIB holdings. The current campaign confirms that SHIB is an actively supported asset, with a loan term of approximately 28 days.

This news follows Japan adding SHIB to its ‘Green List,’ which means it’s now part of a regulated system allowing services like borrowing and earning rewards.
SHIB’s recent developments
T. Rowe Price updated its filing for its Price Active Crypto ETF, originally submitted in October. The revised document explains that the fund will be actively managed and designed to provide investors with access to various digital assets, securely held by Anchorage Digital Bank.
This fund aims to beat the performance of a major crypto index by strategically investing in a changing selection of five to fifteen cryptocurrencies, which could include coins like Shiba Inu, using computer-based models.
The legal filing specifically describes SHIB as a cryptocurrency built on the Ethereum network, created in August 2020 by its creator, Ryoshi.
Rakuten Wallet in Japan now lets users buy, sell, and trade Shiba Inu (SHIB) using Japanese yen. Customers can even convert their Rakuten Points – earned through regular purchases – directly into SHIB. This connects the cryptocurrency to a major Japanese rewards program and a large customer base.
You can’t pay with SHIB directly, but you can exchange it for Rakuten Cash. Rakuten Cash is widely accepted – at over five million stores – through Rakuten Pay.
Listing SHIB on a trusted and regulated exchange makes it available to more people within a secure financial system.
