Shiba Inu Ambassador Shytoshi Kusama Passes 137 Days Without an X Post
U.Today reports Shiba Inu lead ambassador Shytoshi Kusama has gone 137 days without posting on X, though he has edited his X profile bio and location.
Why it matters
Kusama's posting rhythm is watched by SHIB holders, and U.Today said a return would draw heavy attention from the community. The trading read published alongside the silence story comes from a single pseudonymous account, so neither claim is backed by the project or by a second outlet.
Key facts
U.Today counted 137 days since Shytoshi Kusama's last post and interaction on X.

Kusama replaced an X bio describing finishing touches on an AI app and site called ROS with the single word 'Polish'.
Reported by U.Today
U.Today said rumors of a possible Kusama comeback have kept SHIB community members alert.
Reported by U.Today

What happened
U.Today reports that Shiba Inu lead ambassador Shytoshi Kusama has not posted or interacted on X since his last activity in May, a run the outlet counted at 137 days and described as more than four months. Kusama was not entirely absent from the platform: U.Today said he changed his X location first to 'backlog, Marketing and positioning' and later to 'close', and replaced a bio about finishing an AI app and site called ROS with the single word 'Polish'. The same outlet reported that rumors of a Kusama comeback have kept SHIB community members alert, without confirming any such return. A separate U.Today piece on SHIB trading rests on one pseudonymous account, 'SHIB Knight', which said the three-hour chart was compressing above key support beneath a descending trendline. That account said a break above the trendline would open a 26% move and that a lower level could be tested first. Nothing in either report is confirmed by a second outlet, and the two pieces cover separate subjects, Kusama's posting activity and SHIB's price chart.
