BONE at the Center: HypeIt’s Two Way Street Model Builds Demand on Shibarium
As Web3 matures, platforms are no longer just about speculation. They are about building communities where culture and value reinforce each other. One of the newest entrants, HypeIt.app, is positioning itself as the cultural layer of Shibarium, the blockchain ecosystem powered by Shiba Inu. Its model ties creativity directly to participation in the network, with BONE at the center of the design.
In a conversation with Forbes, the HypeIt team outlined how their platform is reinventing content creation, NFT minting, and cultural expression on Shibarium.
Ownership as a Driver of Utility
At the heart of HypeIt is what the team calls a “two way street.” Creators can freely post content to the platform, but they are also required to participate as collectors. That participation is not symbolic. It requires a gas transaction on Shibarium, which in turn uses BONE.
“Creators post, the community validates by owning, and creators are then incentivized to own in return,” the team explained. “This creates a powerful, circular economy that directly drives BONE usage on the network.”
In a crypto environment where real utility for tokens is often debated, HypeIt’s approach embeds demand into the creative process itself.
A Community of Creators and Collectors
For artists, the opportunity goes beyond simply uploading an image or video. By design, creators must also support the work of others. This creates a more balanced, self sustaining ecosystem.
“The engagement they receive fuels their ability to continue creating,” the team said. “The platform is filled with people who are both creating and supporting, fostering a vibrant and dedicated artistic community.”
This dual role strengthens HypeIt’s cultural identity. Participants are not passive consumers. They are co owners of the ecosystem’s creative pulse.
AI as a Creative Catalyst
HypeIt has also integrated AI tools into its platform, giving creators an edge in rapid experimentation. But here again, the two way street model is a built in filter.
“AI tools allow creators to explore countless concepts and share them with the community,” the team said. “But only the most dedicated and invested creators who are also owning content can continue producing at high volume. The community’s engagement elevates the best work.”
In this way, HypeIt avoids becoming a flood of unchecked AI art and instead channels machine driven creativity through a community curated process.
Video as the Next Leap in Expression
In July, HypeIt rolled out video uploads, marking a major upgrade for its users. According to the team, the move was not just technical. It was cultural.
“Video is the language of modern culture,” they said. “By bringing it to HypeIt, we are capturing and immortalizing rich moments on the blockchain. Our model ensures these videos come from deeply invested community members, reflecting and strengthening Shibarium’s culture layer.”
With video, creators can tell more expansive stories, adding another dimension to the platform’s cultural appeal.
Built for Sustainability
A recurring theme in the interview was sustainability, a concern for any Web3 project hoping to survive beyond initial hype cycles. HypeIt’s answer is its ownership based safeguard.
“It prevents spam and promotes a healthy ecosystem by tying a user’s ability to create to their engagement as a collector,” the team emphasized. “This balanced flow of value aligns the incentives of creators, collectors, and the Shibarium network for long term growth.”
Why It Matters
HypeIt is betting that the future of blockchain culture lies not in passive speculation but in active participation, where every creator is also a collector, every post fuels network demand, and every piece of content strengthens a community.
It is a bold model. If it succeeds, HypeIt could become a blueprint for how cultural platforms in Web3 not only survive but thrive, anchored by sustainability, fueled by creativity, and powered by Shibarium’s BONE.
