A recent X-post from a Shib linked account cited one of the messages Ryoshi sent to the Shib community on his blog.
“Shibarium/Bone Updates” X Account (@shibizens) has published a link to Heipit.app, which runs in the stage, with the image of a young man who looks like a Japanese prince/another young nobleman as if filmed from an old school video game.
This image is accompanied by Ryooshi's message, showing the humble attitude of the mystical creator of Shiv to his brainchild.
“I'm not there.”
I've been saying from the beginning that I'm no one and I don't care. https://t.co/g8qtg1kray

On May 30, Ryoshi, founder of the pseudonym Shib, deleted all posts on Twitter and other social media platforms, as well as personal blog posts about Medium. His departure had no major impact on SHIB prices, which fell by just 6% that day.
Since then, the project has been led by another pseudonymous and investor known as kusama's embarrassment. These days, the community still remembers Ryoshi, citing messages on social media from time to time.
On October 28th, SHIB, the second largest meme cryptocurrency, reached an all-time high of 0.00008845. I'm currently changing my hands for $0.00001346. This is down 84.77% from its historic peak.
