Shiba Inu lead developer Shytoshi Kusama has been absent from his official X account for over a month, prompting questions about the project’s future. Despite the silence, the Shiba Inu community remains optimistic, attributing this to his involvement in the Shibarium development, which some perceive as his priority. However, detractors and skeptics continue to target both Kusama and the SHIB team. Lucie, a leading member of the team, has defended their approach, highlighting upcoming developments like the LEASH token’s reload and addressing the community’s concerns regarding security breaches and scams. She emphasized her commitment to protecting investors from fraudulent activities while challenging those who seek to undermine the project.
