Shiba Inu arrives on Coins.ph, central bank approved exchange

Shiba Inu adoption is on the rise as the meme coin gets listed on Coins.ph. The exchange is approved by the Philippine's Central Bank and has over 16 million users. Shiba Inu has therefore reached 16 million new users overnight, following the exchange listing. 

The licensed crypto exchange has 20 listed crypto assets, according to the Coins.ph website. 

The announcement came a week after the exchange teased its users with the listing of the second-largest meme coin. The listing was originally scheduled for July 13, 2022, however due to a technical glitch, there was a postponement in the SHIB listing. Finally, issues were resolved and the exchange proceeded to list Shiba Inu. 

Tuition fees can be paid in Shiba Inu, at this university

Mexico-based Utel University is present in more than 11 countries, including United States, Mexico, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Panama and Peru. The university announced the acceptance of tuition fees in 34 cryptocurrencies, including Shiba Inu. 

Utel joined hands with Bitso, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, to accept crypto payments. Shiba Inu can now be used to pay tuition fees, widening the meme-coin’s utility and adoption worldwide. 

Following the news of Utel's partnership with Bitso, the online university became the first in Latin America to adopt cryptocurrency payments efficiently, transparently as a reliable method of payment for the community.
