Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer of Shiba Inu, has a few choice words for people in the community who would rather dwell on the negative reports instead of spreading positivity.

Following news that Shiba Inu creator Ryoshi has deleted all his blogs and tweets, many SHIB holders were alarmed, thinking the mysterious figure behind the popular token would no longer be around for the community. Despite Kusama's post on Medium, some people on Twitter seemed committed to their narrative that something was going on within the Shiba Inu dev team.

Several of these Twitter users took advantage of the situation and promoted tokens that they alleged Ryoshi was working on. "I can imagine the FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) the ShibArmy must be facing and it is, for this reason, I’m writing this article," Kusama said in a blog they wrote to appease worried SHIB holders.

However, it appears that the blog was not enough for some, and Kusama had a few choice words for them. "How comical. After recent updates and announcements of two industry heavyweights for Shib MV and everything else on the horizon after months of hard work, all I will do is laugh. #SHIB is Shib and will continue forward," the lead developer tweeted.

"I am not important, and one day I will be gone without notice. Take the SHIBA and journey upwards frens," Ryoshi reappeared in the comment section of a Medium blog post titled "We Are All Ryoshi," published on Monday.

However, it turned out the Medium account now belongs to someone else and not the Ryoshi that created Shiba Inu. "Report: Collectively, it’s being reported that the allhailtheshiba medium now belongs to another user," Shiba Inu's Milkshake shared on Twitter several hours after the blog was shared on the micro-blogging site.

FUD is the crypto speak for fear, uncertainty and doubt and Kusama assured the community that "FUD will be just that." They also reminded the Shib Army that "Shib is Shib and we remain to grow far into the future following the path laid by our magnificent founder."

SHIB was trading down 1.32 percent at $0.00001169 with a 24-hour volume of $376,311,493 as of 5:43 a.m. ET on Wednesday based on the data from CoinMarketCap.
