Shiba Inu’s Main Developer Clears Up New Token Rumors
Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer of Shiba Inu (SHIB), has officially distanced himself from the new copycat token Paw (PAW). This was due to its potential as a pump-and-dump scheme, which was identified by members of the SHIB Army on Twitter and Discord. Hence, he ended his tweet with a cautionary message: „Be careful #Shibarmy, many wolves in Shib’s clothing.“
Kusama Calls Whales to Help Turkey
In response to the devastating Kahramanmaras earthquake that affected Turkey and Syria, Shytoshi Kusama sent out a call for donations. He shared details regarding crypto donations that support BEP20, Avalanche, and ERC-20 tokens on Ethereum (ETH). Unfortunately no whales answered his initial call but he later shared another donation link that accepts SHIB transfers.
Is Shibarium Dropping Today?
With Valentine’s Day being speculated as its release date, many community members are still waiting for Layer-2 solution for Shiba Inu called Shibarium. Although nothing has been confirmed yet, SHIB Sunshine reminded everyone to remain patient. Even Kusama himself cannot predict exactly when it will be released.
Cautionary Message Against Pump-and-Dump Schemes
Kusama’s cautionary message against pump-and-dump schemes serves as an important reminder to always do your own research before investing in any crypto projects or tokens. This is especially true when there are malicious actors out there looking to take advantage of unsuspecting investors who lack knowledge about cryptocurrency trading or investing principles.
Supporting Victims of Natural Disasters
The tragedy in Turkey and Syria serves as an example of how powerful natural disasters can be and how much help those affected by them need from us all. Therefore it is heartwarming to see someone like Kusama taking action and spreading awareness about donating cryptocurrency towards helping those affected by such catastrophes worldwide.
