Shiba Inu Taps NVIDIA and Alibaba-Powered Tech for AI Push as Its Token Price Struggles

• The Shiba Inu project has announced a major partnership to enter the AI gaming space.
• The new “Shib.fun” platform will be powered by NVIDIA and Alibaba Cloud infrastructure.
• This news comes as the SHIB token is hovering at a critical technical support level.

Shiba Inu’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, confirmed the ecosystem’s growing focus into artificial intelligence (AI) by announcing a strategic partnership with TokenPlayAI, an AI-powered gaming platform developed by Astra Nova. 

At the announcement Shytoshi Kusama also hinted at broader ambitions beyond this initial step, suggesting more AI integrations and a new, AI-centric white paper are on the way.

Shiba Inu’s New AI Gaming Platform

The new partnership will debut Shib.fun, a no-code platform that will allow users to build and play blockchain games. The platform will be developed by Astra Nova and will utilize its TokenPlayAI technology. This system is powered by high-performance infrastructure from NVIDIA and Alibaba Cloud, signaling a commitment to creating advanced, AI-enhanced gaming experiences.

Kusama’s tweet hinted at broader ambitions, suggesting that this is just the first of several AI integrations. With over 22,000 sign-ups already on the waitlist, anticipation is building. A new AI-centric white paper is expected soon, which Kusama suggests will outline the ecosystem’s roadmap and introduce more partnerships. 

Community members believe this could be a major catalyst for SHIB’s journey toward the mythical $0.01 mark. With the SHIB token losing the 50-day and 20-day exponential moving averages, the first bullish move confirmation would be the meme coin reclaiming these EMAs.

SHIB Price Analysis: Token Hovers at Critical Support

SHIB currently trades at $0.00001173, hovering just above a key support zone near the 0.0 Fibonacci retracement level ($0.00001199), as per CoinMarketCap data. A failure to hold this level may open the door to deeper losses. 

Upside targets sit at the Fib extensions, with resistance seen around $0.00001648 (0.786 Fib) and $0.00002123 (1.618 Fib). The broader breakout zone lies between $0.00002695 and $0.00003619, which would represent a massive bullish reversal.

On the other hand, the RSI is at 36.40, showing that SHIB is approaching oversold territory but hasn’t fully entered it yet. This signals weakening momentum, though a reversal could occur if bulls defend the current support zone.

The MACD indicator shows that the MACD line (blue) remains below the signal line (orange), with both trending below zero. This crossover points to continued bearish momentum, but the flattening histogram could hint at a possible trend exhaustion in the short term.
