The word "shiba" in Japanese can be translated as "Brushwood". The shiba inu breed is one of the oldest and smallest native Japanese dog breeds. They were historically used for hunting small game in dense brushwood or undergrowth, which is likely why they were given this name.
Brushwood is a simple, community-facing ERC-20 on Ethereum. Like most on-chain tokens, it maps to a fixed supply: 1,000,000,000 $SHIBA. Half of that (500,000,000) has been burned to the standard dead address; 450,000,000 (45%) backs Uniswap V2 liquidity; and 50,000,000 (5%) is reserved for the team under a Unicrypt lock. There are 0% transaction fees, no max-wallet or max-buy caps, and no artificial restrictions—true DeFi with the tax knobs turned off.
Brushwood's goal is simple: create a sustainable community-driven token on Ethereum. We've been away from the spotlight for a long stretch—quiet on purpose while the wider scene cycled through noise, resets, and the next big thing. Coming back now, anchored to the same ideas we started with, feels like the right time to reopen the story: fewer shortcuts, more substance, and room for people who still believe in building together. We're here to build something real, not through hype alone, but through consistent effort, community engagement, and strategic growth. Returning to those original roots doesn't guarantee anything—but it might open the door to a brighter chapter if we earn it, day by day. The destination isn't predetermined; it's whatever we build together.
The Brushwood deployment is backed by 15 ETH held in the original deployer wallet . Everything stays on Ethereum: the same EVM address you can trace from day one, with no cross-chain shuffle between the 2023 deployment and how $SHIBA is run today—including how we fund the Uniswap V2 liquidity described below.
For the Uniswap V2 pool we are providing 15 ETH of initial liquidity, paired with 450,000,000 $SHIBA—the full 45% of total supply allocated to public trading depth in our tokenomics.
$SHIBA trades on Uniswap on Ethereum mainnet. Follow the route below—from ETH in your wallet to $SHIBA in your balance—in five steps.
Use MetaMask, Rabby, or any wallet that supports Ethereum mainnet. You’ll need enough ETH for the swap plus a little extra for gas (network fees).
Use Uniswap with ETH → $SHIBA already loaded so you don’t paste the wrong token by hand.
Open Uniswap with $SHIBAIn the interface, check that the output token is Brushwood ($SHIBA) and that the contract matches the checksum below—then you’re on the real pool.
