It’s no everyday occurrence for a cryptocurrency to start a Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) war with one of its largest price-tracking websites. However, that’s exactly what’s happening this morning with pupcoin Shiba Inu (CCC:SHIB-USD) and price reference site CoinMarketCap. Indeed, the SHIB crypto is catching headlines today with its latest internet tiff.
So, what do you need to know about the Shiba Inu debacle today?
Well, on Thursday, Jan. 13, the official Shiba Inu Twitter made a statement challenging recent actions by CoinMarketCap. SHIB accuses the site of knowingly listing three apparently fake contract addresses for the crypto, for Bep20 (CCC:SNM-USD), Solana (CCC:SOL-USD) and Terra (CCC:LUNA-USD). It went on to state that CoinMarketCap ignored communication requests and expressed its disappointment with the website.The @Shibtoken account followed up with two more tweets elaborating that “$SHIB is an ERC-20 Token Only!” Additionally, the account requested the #ShibArmy to remain “calm and professional” while they wait for a resolution.
