Shytoshi Kusama and Kaal Dhairya, the anonymous main developers of Shiba Inu, recently had an interview with Arabian Business, revealing some unknown details about their lives. It was revealed that Kusama can speak six languages and used to work as an Uber driver in Los Angeles. He has had various jobs in music, photography, and as a barista. On the other hand, Dhairya, considered a technical genius, once worked as a delivery person in New York.
Kusama recalled how he entered the tech industry, which was inspired by an encounter as an Uber driver. He happened to pick up a seemingly wealthy individual and out of curiosity, he asked what the person did. The wealthy individual replied, “If you want everything I have, enter the tech industry.” Inspired by this, Kusama decided to pursue a career in the tech field. In the cryptocurrency space, he initially had an interest in trading and went through two cycles over seven years.
Later on, Kusama joined the Shiba Inu chat room, which had only 6,000 members at the time, and invested $3,000 in the Shiba Inu meme coin. During the same period, he read the first article by SHIB founder Ryoshi, which discussed the concept of decentralization. Kusama met Ryoshi in the chat room and shared his ideas about SHIB, immediately gaining Ryoshi’s approval.
However, Kusama realized that he needed more support, and that’s when he met Dhairya in the chat room. He convinced Dhairya to quit his job and offered him a year’s salary, starting their close collaboration. Kusama said, “Dhairya responded in the interview: ‘SHIB will add a committee by the end of the year.'”
Although Shiba Inu (SHIB) is currently the 13th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, its main developers, Shytoshi Kusama and Kaal Dhairya, have no intention of giving up their anonymity. Additionally, the two plan to transfer control of the project to the community by the end of this year. Kusama said in the interview, “The first interview also revealed the mysterious side of SHIB. The two main developers believe it is unnecessary to disclose their identities and prefer to remain anonymous. They consider this anonymity to be priceless.” Kusama admitted, “
