Why It Matters: Ryoshi’s unanticipated move came as a shock to many in the cryptocurrency community, but some like ShibaSwap creator Shytoshi Kusama said the community would continue to grow with the aim of realizing Ryoshi’s vision.
“Ryoshi was, and is, one of the most successful anonymous founders of any project, ever. Though I don’t know his identity, his legacy lives on in the Shib token, Shib Ecosystem, and all the projects we foresee to decentralize the world,” stated Shytoshi Kusama in a blog.
“We’ve built from nothing, never paid an exchange for a listing, and revolutionized ‘meme’ tokens by growing exponentially.”
Some members of the community believe that Ryoshi’s sudden exit from Shiba Inu was inevitable.
“I am not important, and one day I will be gone without notice. Take the SHIBA and journey upwards frens,” wrote Ryoshi in the first Shiba Inu blog.
