Shytoshi Kusama Schools X User Who Said SHIB Will Remain ‘Chump Change Meme’ Unless It Can Rise Above A Penny: ‘Those Who Are Wise Give Us Respect’

Shytoshi Kusama, the leader of the Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) ecosystem, expressed frustration over the coin not getting due respect despite impressive gains over the years.

What Happened: Kusama was responding to an X post by Nick Tomaino, founder of cryptocurrency-focused fund 1confirmation, who didn’t include Shiba Inu on his list of most impactful cryptocurrency projects to date.

“Again, the disrespect… smh #SHIB,” an irritated Kusama said.

When pointed out by a fellow SHIB community member that unless the coin rises above $0.01, it won’t garner any respect and will remain a “chump change meme.”
