Shiba Inu has been recognized as one of the most successful success stories of Bitstamp, which was founded in 2011.
The SHIB listing was first announced by the exchange in December. However, due to technical difficulties, it was postponed indefinitely.
The Luxembourg-based crypto exchange assured Shiba Inu fans in mid-December that it had not changed its mind about listing the breed.
It took almost half a year for Europe's leading cryptocurrency trading platform to finally deliver on that promise.
Bitstamp is known for its conservative listing policy and strict regulatory compliance.
Former Bitstamp CEO Julian Sawyer denied the idea of listing the meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin in August.
Sawyer resigned from his position last month. JB Graftieaux, who previously headed the exchange's European operations, has been named its new global CEO.
