Shytoshi Kusama, a leading figure in the Shiba Inu ecosystem, continues to maintain his silence on the X platform. After recently updating his biography, Kusama has refrained from making new posts or engaging with content on the platform. This quiet period has led the SHIB community to speculate whether the lack of updates is connected to potential developments within the project.
Shytoshi Kusama remains silent on X as SHIB trades near weekly lows
Kusama’s latest activity on X
Kusama’s most recent post on X dates back to May 13, when he tagged Shiba Inu developer Kaal Dhairya. Since then, he has not shared further statements, extending a stretch of reduced public communication that has been noted since late 2024. This ongoing silence appears to be part of a broader pattern observed in his engagement with the community.
Previously, Kusama addressed his lack of communication, emphasizing that innovation-driven work has kept him focused behind the scenes. Notably, he mentioned being involved in an independent artificial intelligence initiative. The current bio message on his X profile reflects this new focus.
Kusama’s X profile biography now reads: “Pure Focus: AI App/site: R.OS Finishing touches. Beta website complete. Final bug pass.”
Among Shiba Inu supporters, Kusama is a closely-watched figure for guidance on the project’s direction and communication. His profile location still lists previous priorities, indicating “Backlog, Marketing, Positioning” as ongoing areas of responsibility.
Glossary: A beta website is a test version of a product or site, released to a limited audience for initial feedback. A final bug pass means checking for any remaining technical issues before the site goes live.
SHIB trades sideways amid quiet period
The current silence from the Shiba Inu leadership mirrors broader market conditions. Recent weeks have seen the meme coin segment move from sharp rallies to weaker price action and a period of accumulation. SHIB is following this trend, displaying stable movement near recent lows without major volatility.
According to the latest data, SHIB fell 0.47% in the past 24 hours to $0.000004699. The weekly loss stands at roughly 6%. Although the asset showed some gains the previous week, selling pressure dominated most of the past seven days, with prices stabilizing somewhat by the weekend.
Key support and resistance levels in focus
Investors are concentrating on clear price levels in the current trading environment. Should SHIB’s decline continue, the $0.0000043 support zone is seen as critical. On the other hand, any rebound may target resistance at $0.0000055.
Additionally, SHIB has depreciated for five consecutive days since June 16. If today also closes lower, the losing streak will extend to a sixth day. As a result, both Kusama’s communication activity and SHIB’s reaction to these technical levels remain top concerns for the community in the short term.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners
Goldman Sachs analyst Bobby Molavi compared the current situation to the 19th-century British railway mania: 500 companies spent more than the nation's annual income building 8,000 miles of railway, with most early investors losing out, while the real beneficiaries were the later "passengers." He pointed out that the current AI craze is driven by both debt and momentum, and that the S&P 500’s forward P/E ratio of 18x is only "a bit cheaper." Whether the builders can retain value is uncertain, and history does not offer an optimistic answer.

Multiple venture capital firms have advised their portfolio companies to lower valuation expectations and to quickly build up cash reserves. Market participants warn that the outcome of Anthropic’s IPO will be a barometer for the industry: if successful, the boom will continue; if it fails, some companies may face elimination.
