SHIB is the “DOGECOIN KILLER,” according to the SHIBA INU website, and is listed on their own ShibaSwap, a DEX. Shiba Inu currency was established under the pseudonym “Ryoshi” in August 2020. Ryoshi claims that he is a nobody and unimportant and that any attempts to reveal his true identity, even if successful, would be disappointing.
The adorable charm of the coin, combined with articles and tweets from celebrities like Elon Musk and Vitalik Buterin, drew in a community of investors, quickly increasing its speed and value. Long thought to be the creator of Shiba Inu, Vitalik Buterin debunked the myths on the Lex Fridman show on June 5, 2021.
