An incident that happened Aug. 11, 2025, saw LEASH supply increase by 10%, negating the belief that supply was fixed and rebasing was disabled. After careful consideration by the Shiba Inu team and the community, it was decided to launch LEASH v2 on a new, audited, non‑rebase contract with the final outcome subject to DAO approval.

With developer work on LEASH v2 in progress, the SHIB team remains committed to protecting holders and delivering a smooth, verifiable migration to LEASH v2.

In light of this, the Shiba Inu team warns the community to beware of Telegram messages promoting “LEASH V2 Migration.”

Crucial warnings issued

Susbarium reiterates that Telegram messages promoting “LEASH V2 Migration” with wallet connection requests are phishing attempts with the aim of draining user funds. Shiba Inu holders are warned never to connect their wallets or approve any transactions from these sources.

In a separate tweet, Susbarium warns of coordinated bad actors and networks of fake accounts that are actively targeting vulnerable investors, urging the Shiba Inu community not to FOMO into random links.

The Shiba Inu team also warns that there is no official LEASH token on Solana, nor is there any LEASH migration to Solana. It warns that any version of token not listed on the official SHIB website is fake and not part of the Shiba Inu ecosystem.
