Shytoshi Kusama Steps Down as Shiba Inu Lead, Transitions to Global Ambassador Role
Shytoshi Kusama, the pseudonymous leader of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem, has announced his departure from his role as the lead visionary, transitioning into a new position as the project’s lead ambassador.
In a statement on X, Kusama emphasized that Shiba Inu has now reached a stage where execution and communication take precedence over vision. He highlighted key milestones achieved under his leadership, including Shiba Inu’s continued ranking among the top 20 cryptocurrencies and the successful operation of Shibarium with 800 million seamless transactions.
“I can now say I have accomplished my initial goal with flying colors,” Kusama stated, reaffirming his confidence in the project’s foundation. “Simply put, there is no more vision needed, only execution and communications.”
As lead ambassador, Kusama will focus on expanding Shiba Inu’s global adoption by guiding projects that integrate with ShibOS—formerly known as the 36 Chambers of Tech—while forging partnerships to implement innovative technologies into the ecosystem. His efforts will ensure that Shiba Inu continues to evolve with a strong and sustainable infrastructure.
