Shiba Inu (SHIB) is one of the top meme coins on the market, and it's now accepted by a major company. Kronos Advanced Technologies (KNOS) has become the first publicly traded company in the United States to accept SHIB as a payment method, which is a pretty big deal for the cryptocurrency. Kronos revealed in a Form 8-K filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that they'd started accepting SHIB. It's a big moment for the company and the asset. This move puts Kronos at the cutting edge of technological innovation in its industry. In 2024, SHIB had over 1.39 million holders worldwide, which shows just how popular it is. Kronos, a top US air purification systems company, has seen the writing on the wall and has decided to integrate SHIB into its payment options. Kronos CEO Greg Rubin said that the integration is in line with the company's commitment to embracing new technology. “Integrating SHIB as a payment option is in line with our forward-thinking ethos and dedication to embracing technological advancements,” Rubin said. He said that this decision would be good for the company and its customers, making Kronos more attractive to tech-savvy users and making sure that the company's strategy is future-proof. In the last 24 hours, SHIB has shown it can handle the heat, gaining 1.5% and trading at over $0.000017, according to CoinMarketCap. On top of that, its trading volume has shot up by more than 44% during this period, keeping it firmly in the top tier of the meme coin market.
