The mysterious leader of the SHIB developer team known by the pseudonym Shytoshi Kusama has reached a major milestone at social media giant X.
X user and member of the Japanese SHIB army @kuro_9696_9696 posted a screenshot of Kusama’s X page. The number one million is highlighted and the SHIB fan tweeted that Shytoshi Kusama’s follower count has reached 1,000,000.
Shytoshi’s actual page shows a number very close to that: 999.8K. Sometimes the figure showing the follower count can peak and then recede slightly, as users often come and go in waves, first starting to follow accounts and then quickly unfollowing them.

SHIB representative conveys Shytoshi’s message to SHIB army
Earlier this week, Team SHIB’s official social media marketing lead, Lucie, took to X to address the Shiba Inu army with an optimistic message about the future of the SHIB ecosystem.
He titled his post “Building the future together,” reminding the community that the SHIB ecosystem is currently in the construction stage. Here, Ella Lucie quoted Sytoshi’s frequent saying: “The moat was built to protect the castle, now we build it.”
So far, according to the marketing leader, SHIB has entered step 1 and stage 1 of the project roadmap and surprisingly, “there is a lot more to come.”
Lucie compared the SHIB blockchain to a railway track where developers are building stations for users and dApp creators. The team is currently busy updating its technology, connecting with big players in the crypto space, and ensuring “the overall health of our ecosystem.”
Lucie also revealed that the SHIB team is collaborating with “some key people in the industry.” She explained that this will be a big project and will take some time. However, as soon as “the stations are built,” “it will be a whole new story.”
