Shiba Inu lead ambassador Shytoshi Kusama has now been silent on X for 137 days, with his last post and interaction recorded on May 13. Although he has not published new posts for more than four months, Kusama has occasionally updated his X profile, changing his location to "close" and previously to "backlog, Marketing and positioning." His bio was also updated from "Pure focus: AI App/site: ROS Finishing touches: Beta website complete. Final bug pass" to simply "Polish."
The extended absence has kept the SHIB community on alert, with speculation building over a possible comeback as October approaches. Meanwhile, Shiba Inu’s daily chart is nearing its first major golden cross of 2026: the daily 50-day moving average is climbing toward the 200-day moving average, a traditionally bullish signal. SHIB’s last visible golden cross occurred in November 2024, and one month later the token reached a high of $0.0000334 in December 2024 before later printing a series of death cross signals.
