The mysterious founder of Shiba Inu, known by the pseudonym Ryoshi, has had his voice heard again and again over the years. One of his old messages has been quoted by the head of one of SHIB’s strategic partners, K9 Finance.
In his message, Ryoshi speaks about scammers and his job to defend Shiba Inu and its community.
Ryoshi's old message shared with SHIB army
The cofounder of K9 Finance, DAO @buzzdefi0x, has shared an important message that Ryoshi sent to the Shiba Inu community when he was still in the public eye.
In this message, the SHIB founder stated that his “job is to defend the line and the brand.” Anybody who “comes and honors Shiba” is a friend, and anyone to tries “to leech from the Shiba is a scammer and placed into exile.” Thus, Ryoshi has again urged the Shiba Inu army to protect SHIB’s integrity, sending fudders and scammers “into exile.”
“My job, my job is to defend the line and the brand. From the beginning, it is always the same. SHIBA is SHIBA. That is all. Anybody who comes and honors the Shiba walks equal with me. Anybody who comes and attempts to leech from the Shiba is a scammer and placed into exile.” -…

Earlier this year, Ryoshi’s two other messages, old ones, were cited to the SHIB community by the marketing lead of the team Lucie.
SHIB’s Lucie issues major warning
On Wednesday, the social media marketing expert of the SHIB team, Lucie, issued an important warning to the global Shiba Inu community. Speaking about “wolves in sheep’s clothing,” she warned SHIB users about “deceitful individuals” who “lurk, aiming to manipulate for personal gain.”
Still, Lucie has found a silver lining, announcing that every scammer “adds fuel” to SHIB’s bright fire and ignites the team’s “determination to build a more transparent and trustworthy ecosystem.”
Stand tall against the wolves in sheep’s clothing. 🐺
