In a surprising development for the community, the Shiba Inu team has decided to delay the much-awaited ShibaCon conference. Initially set for November 9, the conference has now been postponed indefinitely, leaving many participants curious about the reasons behind this abrupt decision.
ShibaCon Conference Postponed
On October 14, the Shiba Inu team announced through its official SHIB social media channel on X (formerly Twitter) that the ShibaCon conference in Bangkok, Thailand, would no longer take place as planned, just days after the US Presidential elections on November 5.
This announcement, made just weeks before the event, has left many in the Shiba Inu community speculating about the cause of the delay. While the team did not provide full details on why the conference was postponed, they mentioned that the decision was made to enhance the overall experience for attendees.
Although the delay was disappointing for many eager attendees, the Shiba Inu team believes that this decision will lead to an even more impressive ShibaCon, uniting innovators from Web3, developers, and the ShibArmy.
To compensate those who had already purchased tickets, the team stated that ticket holders would be informed through email and refunded in full. Additionally, they expressed their appreciation to the community for their support by offering free VIP tickets. The VIP tickets will be available once the new date and location for ShibaCon are confirmed.
Community Reactions to ShibaCon Delay
The announcement of the ShibaCon postponement elicited mixed reactions from the SHIB community. Some members expressed excitement over the offer of VIP tickets, feeling fortunate to receive them for free. Others showed gratitude for the timely communication from the Shiba Inu team, sharing positive memes in response to the announcement.
Conversely, a notable segment of the community criticized the team for the sudden decision, suggesting that the postponement may be due to inadequate ticket sales, calling the situation a joke.
Amid the mixed feedback regarding the ShibaCon delay, Shiba Inu’s cryptocurrency continues to perform well. Over the past week, its price rose by 6.6%, reaching $0.000018, according to CoinMarketCap. Furthermore, data from Coinglass indicates a 23.78% increase in trading volume, totaling $226.12 million in the last 24 hours.
