Software giant Microsoft has sent the Shiba Inu cryptocurrency community into a spin on social media with speculation over a recent tweet about dogs participating in online meetings in its business communication platform.
The cryptic tweet posted on the official Microsoft Twitter account said: “There are two types of dogs on Teams meetings.”
The post sparked much reaction from fans of the meme coin receiving over 6,936 likes, 2,100 retweets and some 288 quote retweets with many responses including Gifs and images of the infamous Shiba Inu dogecoin. Many social media users think the tweet is hinting at a potential partnership with the tech giant.
One response said: “Woof! Let me guess #ShibaInu @Microsoft.”
While another posted: “#SHIBARMY could you imagine what we all hope this means. The possibilities would be endless. In #SHIB and @Microsoft we trust.”
While another Twitter user reminded others that Microsoft has always been a supporter of cryptocurrency.
They wrote: “Microsoft ventured into cryptocurrencies relatively early by starting accepting Bitcoin in late 2014.”
One of the most valuable companies in the world is currently developing its own Web 3 strategy, according to a job posting published earlier this month.
Last month, Microsoft announced it would buy video game holding company Activision Blizzard for $68.7 billion (£57.4billion) to make a foray into the mushrooming metaverse sector.
In late November, Shiba Inu partnered with David Volk, a former VP at Activision Blizzard.
As reported by U.Today, the Shiba Inu team is expected to reveal the name of its metaverse project in the near future.
Meanwhile, the team recently announced that the protocol would soon make it possible to buy plots of virtual land, pushing the price of the LEASH token higher.
