In this light, Davinci reiterates that TREAT and SHI have not yet been launched, and anyone suggesting likewise is likely a scammer. He states that purchasing anything with a similar name will not allow buyers to participate in SHIB The Metaverse, Shiba Eternity or ShibaHub.
Enlightening the Shiba Inu community further, Davinci stated that purchasing these fake TREAT and SHI tokens does not connect in any way to any Shiba ecosystem dApps (Shib.io).
