Shytoshi Kusama Likens SHIB to Bitcoin

Bitcoin was launched in 2009 after the American economy collapsed and slipped into a recession. The stock markets bled profusely delivering massive losses to investors during that period. Bitcoin paved the way for a decentralized economy taking a new path away from the traditional financial establishments. On the other hand, Shiba Inu was launched in August 2020 with the aim of decentralization, with the motive of giving power back to the people. Therefore, both Bitcoin and Shiba Inu are decentralized projects and have no connection to the existing financial entities.

“Ryoshi set us on a path to decentralization and founded a project that has changed the lives of millions of people,” he wrote.

The trio, Satoshi Nakamoto, Shytoshi Kusama, and Ryoshi are anonymous people and their identity is a mystery. A few names have been thrown around on social media about their identity but none of them is confirmed.
