Cryptocurrency founder Shiba Inu has left the community and deleted all his blogs and tweets.

Ryoshi anonymously released Shiba Inu in August 2020 as an alternative to Dogecoin. After launching the project, the identity of the founder is unknown.

The founders of Meme-coin used to say that one day they would “disappear” and they did so this week.

“I said from the beginning, I am nobody, I am not important. Even if they are successful, the attempts to get rid of my “identity” are inadequate. I’m a useless guy who just pushes the keyboard and it’s interchangeable. “I’m in Rio,” wrote the mysterious founder in a post that was removed from the media.

In Rio, under the address of Twitter @Ryōshi ResearchIt is considered the individual or group of individuals behind the Shiba Inu, the second most popular memecoin in the world of cryptocurrencies.

Rioche’s Twitter account is currently active, but all of his posts have been removed. The account has a profile picture of Tibetan poet and yogi Jetsun Milarepa.

Ryoshi’s identity is as secret as the identity of Bitcoin founder Sato Nakamoto.

Ryoshi said that the Shiba Inu was created as an experiment to build a spontaneous and decentralized community.

Major developers of the Shiba Inu cryptocurrency, such as Osamu Kusama, have stated that the project will continue and “realize Ryoshi’s vision and this grand experimental plan” to build a decentralized ecosystem.

Rio is one of the most successful anonymous founders of any project. “I don’t know his identity, but his legacy remains in the Shib tokens, the Shib ecosystem, and all the projects we plan to disperse around the world,” Kusama wrote in a blog post on Tuesday.

The founders have reportedly said goodbye to the Shib Army and left two blog posts on Medium. However, some members suggest that these posts may be from a scammer playing the role of Ryoshi.

Accounts related to Ryoshi’s blog appear to be currently terminated.


What is a cryptocurrency whale?

In crypto jargon, a “whale” represents an individual or institution with a large number of specific cryptocurrencies.

News of Rio’s existence has not negatively affected SHIB prices. Memecoin is up 3.1% in the last 24 hours and is now valued at $0.0000119.

Shiba Inu decreased 86% in October 2021 to a historic $0.00008616, while SHIB increased 54% compared to the last 12 months.

The Shiba Inu remains one of the richest Ethereum whales holding $1 billion worth of SHIB.
