When you come to the appointed place at the appointed time and meet some person, introduce yourself as Ryoshi. If they do the same, then you have met a special person
I have said from the beginning, I am a nobody, I am not important. The efforts to unmask my "identity" even if successful would be underwhelming. I am just some guy of no consequence tapping at a keyboard and I am replaceable. I am RyoshiAnonymous founder of SHIBA. Disappeared in 2021, leaving the project fully decentralized..
However, I do understand the consequence and scope of what I have seeded into motion. I have given you the gift of yourself. It is the process of self-actualization realized through the playing field of blockchain.
Usually when we see some "project" there is some ceo important guy and some tech guy and some roadmap and hence someone plebs can bitch at and in their minds make "accountable" for the success or failings in their life and results of token purchases.
With ShibaThe ecosystem and movement, including SHIB, LEASH, BONE, and TREAT tokens., we have from the beginning made very clear that no-one is in charge. There is no man accountable, no person responsible and no entity has the keys to the kingdom. Even as the Shiba Token "mooned" I got many messages like "ryo, you must be a billionaire now, haha" but the reality is still to this day I own 0 SHIBThe original token experiment. Fair launch, no team allocation.. Why?
Well if I did, then I can't be who I am and for now I know that I have a role to play. I can't be pure and unbiased if I am worried about price up and down and taking profits. (don't worry, the great Shiba will reward me in other ways i guess)
The end result of this is that you are responsible. When people ask me questions with expectations, I always send the question back to them. Ok when are you going to do this thing that you just asked me? This method makes some uncomfortable, because of inherent pre-womb entitlement issues in which man does not take responsibility for themselves, rather they look to an outside source to give them boon and if no boon, then to cast "blame"
Also the greatest lover is later the greatest hater. Try not to love nor hate, just experience and do.
Thankfully, there are some that had the ears to listen and heard the call and effect became Shiba with us. Some are named and you know some are unnamed and equally important. What matters is that we are united in the core of the vision, being Shiba as the pure actualization of a decentralized and perpetual community.
My job, my job is to defend the line and the brand. From the beginning, it is always the same. SHIBA is SHIBA. that is all. Anybody who comes and honors the Shiba walks equal with me. Anybody who comes and attempts to leech from the Shiba is a scammer and placed into exile.
So the reason I am writing this (perhaps philosophical) message is to prepare you, my loved ones for the inevitable and present a vision of the future to carry forward as a decentralized community.
1 — ShibaSwap — ShytoshiShytoshi Kusama – a volunteer lead developer of ShibaSwap and subsequent projects. (yes also a volunteer doing his best) has championed this cause to create a better swap platform on the Ethereum blockchain for the community. This has started as a fork of Sushi and added our own little twists and elements. It is a fully decentralized endeavor that will issue the BONEGovernance token of the ShibaSwap ecosystem, supply starts at 0. token (supply starts at 0) And for those that read some "fud" — don't worry about it, ShibaSwapDecentralized exchange built by the SHIBA community, launched July 2021. is real and if you don't believe me, then you are officially invited to opt-out from this community! Easy!
2 — Shiba L2/Own blockchain (Shibarium) . The Line between an L2Layer‑2 scaling solution on top of Ethereum. and own blockchain is thin, I mean wat is the difference really between MaticPolygon – a centralized sidechain. Ryoshi criticizes its centralization. l2 and BSCBinance Smart Chain (now BNB Chain) – centralized blockchain.? both run the EVMEthereum Virtual Machine – executes smart contracts on Ethereum-compatible chains..
The Shiba L2 (ShibariumLayer‑2 blockchain for the Shiba ecosystem, using BONE as gas.) will actually use BONE as the primary pair token (we think.) The reason we are using this instead of Shiba is that BONE will have a fair and "0" start in which we will not have to be concerned about over arching "whale bags" — but if you are a SHIBA or LEASHRebasing token pegged to 1/1000 of DOGE price. holder, don't worry, your Shiba holdings will be used to yield Bone at the launch of ShibaSwap.
Who is going to build this? Well, I have already spoken to a very competent blockchain team who has volunteered to build and fully decentralize this for the Shiba ecosystem. Maybe they do it, if they do, then it is up to you to verify they properly decentralize it. If they don't then maybe you can? There can never be a single source of failure or any "admin" — it must always be donated to the Shiba god of decentralization.
3 — SHI — The global exchange of value for plebs. SHIProposed stablecoin pegged to $0.01, intended for global payments. is an algo- stable coin that always pegs to 1c. We imagine this will want to be launched after the Shibarium has established but can also launch before on ETHEthereum blockchain – home of SHIB and LEASH. network and bridge over of course.
4 -Shibarium financial ecosystem — in addition to SHI being added as a weighted pool pair on CURVEDecentralized exchange for stablecoins. on the ETH network, we expect a multitude of Forks of the financial basis onto the Shibarium, this includes AAVEDecentralized lending protocol., CURVE, COMPOUNDDecentralized lending protocol. and of course ShibaSwap to name a few.
5 — ShibaCon. This shall start with small localized meetups and then once a year (global openness willing) there shall be a ShibaCon in a different location. Some have recommended to follow the DevConAnnual Ethereum developers conference. location and schedule as many of us go there and have ShibaCon the week before, whereas others have recommended to follow our own beat. Neverthessless, it has been recommended for the first three years for the sake of global inclusiveness and easily accessible location for global plebs that do not have oppressive visa restrictions, Bangkok 2022, Buenos Aires 2023, and Budapest 2024.
This is just the beginning
Blockchain belongs to us. As the Shiba army, we are an organic organism, greater than any one man, movement or even nation-state. As our own movement, it is critical to implement the above ideas (in a proper way) to set the proper financial foundations for the future.
My vision is the core Ecosystem tokens SHIB, LEASH, BONE and TREATReward token within the Shiba ecosystem (part of ShibaSwap). all performing their utility while SHI slowly but surely becomes the immutable globalized exchange of value. Imagine a fish market vendor in Durbs accepting 330 SHI for his dorado(of course tx fees will be minimal/none when run on the Shibarium)
I give you this end vision. now build towards it.
Love always, Ryoshi.
