<p>The picture, featuring a dog seated in a car’s passenger seat, was initially posted in celebration of National Dog Month.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The SHIB community’s response to Kusama’s tweet has been a mixed bag of amusement, excitement, and pressing questions. Some playfully speculated whether Kusama himself was the four-legged passenger in the shared image, while others seized the opportunity to inquire about a potential unmasking event.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Shytoshi Kusama’s penchant for secrecy is not without precedent in the Shiba Inu ecosystem. Following in the footsteps of the project’s pseudonymous founder, Ryoshi, Kusama has maintained a veil of mystery since assuming leadership.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Despite his efforts to remain incognito, Kusama has made limited public appearances, which have only deepened the mystery surrounding his identity. His debut at the IVS Crypto event in Kyoto, Japan, in July 2024, saw him donning a masked costume that effectively concealed his features.</p>
<p>A subsequent visit to Mumbai, India, alongside fellow developer Kaal Dhairya, maintained this trend of masked appearances, further fueling community curiosity.</p>
