Shytoshi Kusama returned to social media in late January and scheduled a livestream called “Legacy and Lineage of Kings.” He used the event to describe an independent AI project built outside the crypto sphere (Ed. note: this project focuses on family legacy and reparations). According to his X profile, the work began at a corporate partner’s request.
He also said, “He shared that the project operates as an independent venture built at the request of a specific corporate partner.” The lead ambassador described the technology as existing beyond traditional crypto boundaries.
Community reaction split between confusion and devotion, as summarized in a social media post by The Shibmagazine. See that reaction here.
Supporters remain hopeful for a new ecosystem announcement for Shiba Inu, and some await a concrete update. The community’s ongoing expectation appears in a status thread, visible here.
Kusama also reshared a development linking Shiba Inu with Astra Nova, promoting a joint IP project called Protocol Purgatory. The collaboration announcement can be read here.
