The official social media marketing lead of the Shiba Inu team, who prefers to be called simply Lucie, has taken to her Twitter/X handle to remind the SHIB army of some basic values which its mysterious creator Ryoshi used as the basis for launching Shiba Inu.
Ryoshi's old message to SHIB army
Lucie reposted a tweet of one of Shiba Inu developers @shibarium_ on the X platform. Lucie thanked him for “always reminding us about the beautiful values with which this journey began.” Ryoshi’s quote in his tweet goes “look into your soul” but it is written backwards and it depicts a “cat-Samurai” preparing to draw his katana from its sheath.
Thank you to @shibarium_ for always reminding us about the beautiful values with which this journey began.

As reported by U.Today, in late May 2022, the mysterious founder of the SHIB meme coin, Ryoshi, shocked the Shiba Inu community by making a sudden departure from social media by deleting all of his Twitter posts and all the posts in his personal blog too. Earlier, he had warned the SHIB army that he was “not important” and one day he would “be gone without notice.” “Take the SHIBA and journey upwards frens,” he wrote. Thus, Ryoshi chose to follow in the footsteps of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto who also disappeared from the public view in 2010.
SHIB army issues crucial warning
Over the weekend, Lucie also addressed the Shiba Inu army, but that was a major warning that she issued to them. The marketing lead of SHIB urged the community to “be vigilant against scams.”
She reminded them that it is vitally important to do one’s own research (DYOR is a famous acronym within the cryptocurrency community) before investing in new projects (even those that claim to be based on Shibarium) or before connecting one’s wallets to their websites. At the end of the day, she concluded, it is “a good product is what truly matters.”
Scammers and con artists are the constant evil of the cryptocurrency space. They often manage to persuade users to fall for their classic scheme to send them some crypto and then “receive a double of that back.” Naturally, after sending crypto to those wallets, the victims lose their funds without hope for recovery.
