Shiba Inu and Bad Idea Partnership
Notably, Shiba Inu and Bad Idea enjoy an excellent relationship. Since Bad Idea became an official Shiba Inu partner, SHIB enthusiasts have been supporting the crypto project.
As reported earlier, Bad Idea recently completed an audit with CertiK, a blockchain security platform, thanks to contributions from the Shiba Inu community.
The Shiba Inu community supported a proposal to help Bad Idea secure a free audit from CertiK. Although the proposal did not reach the required votes for a free audit, Bad Idea was already entitled to a 20% discount at the time of the report.
In the meantime, the Bad Ide and Shiba Inu teams are working on a secret AI initiative.
