Reflections of the $INU - Part 1

On June 3, 2023- a new token was deployed on the Ethereum blockchain with the simple and unpretentious ticker: $INU. There has been a multitude of variations of INU tokens (Inu of course meaning “DOG” in the Japanese language), all riding the wave of the two most famous Inu: DOGECOIN (DOGE) and SHIBA INU (SHIB)- both catapulting to multibillion-dollar market caps during the crypto bull-run of 2021. Tens of Inu token variations were created, with many of these scams or eventually going to a zero value.

This new $INU token on the surface seemed to be another tired and tried copy-cat job, but something seemed a bit different with this one. 20Eth was added to the LP and subsequently burned. The contract ownership was rescinded. A developer burning 20Eth of liquidity at launch in the midst of crypto winter is a very extravagant move to say the least. By creating such a huge LP/MC ratio, the developer must have keenly been aware that this could be a super-massive project.

The developer later sent a message through the blockchain deployer giving the official website of the project: www.ryoshi.guru accompanied by the Japanese phrase:

分散型。多くの人が挑戦しましたが、達成した人はほとんどいません。私は分散型通貨の新時代を始めるためにここにいます

This translates into English as as “Distributed. Many have tried, but few have succeeded. I am here to start a new era of decentralized currencies”

Ironically enough, the website also listed the token contract address, along with the numbers:

10569013 [346.81]

This happens to be the Ethereum block number of the original SHIB contract. Further research into $INU revealed that the contract was deployed using an extremely outdated version of the Solidity compiler (v0.5.0+commit.1d4f565a). This is the same compiler version used for the original SHIB contract.

The initial rumors of Ryoshi creating this token pushed $INU to a $12M market cap within the first 2 days of its launch, with daily trading volumes on Uniswap reaching $20M+ at its peak! Additionally, it was listed on 6 additional exchanges in less than 7 days of its launch… a feat unheard of in this bear market.

Background

Ryoshi is a name familiar to most in the crypto space. Being perhaps the most famous anonymous crypto developer, Ryoshi is credited with being the creator of the SHIB token. It arose from humble beginnings in August 2020 to become one of the biggest projects in crypto in 2021. Then on May 30, 2021, Ryoshi surprisingly made an announcement that he was leaving the project. He explained other members of the SHIB leadership team were catering the future development of SHIB to venture capitalists at the expense of the community of small investors that propelled its rise. This moved entirely against his core concept of DECENTRALIZATION. Ryoshi at this moment erased all of his twitter posts and changed his twitter profile pic, which was the sole public identity of this anonymous developer.

With this mysterious disappearance, Ryoshi became both a mythical and mystical figure in the hearts of the crypto community. Everyone wondered what happened to him and if he would ever return. And then the unexpected…..

If you are not aware, please watch the video below to learn what happened to him and the story of $TSUKA:

Reappearance and $TSUKA

Reappearing behind a new token called $TSUKA, Ryoshi vowed to continue the goal of his original beginnings- to bring forth a new era of DECENTRALIZATION- where the VC investors would carry no more power over the average investor “fren”. He further cemented his role as the HERO in this journey, bringing decentralized digital currencies forward to the crypto world. This was an especially important topic of discussion after the collapse of centralized crypto companies such as FTX, 3-Arrows Capital, and Celcius, creating havoc and uuncertainty in the crypto market in 2022.

Ryoshi began to send cryptic messages and clues through the $TSUKA blockchain deployer. A large and influential community quickly developed around this token, with everyone waiting to decipher the new messages. These messages were clues and hidden meanings on what Ryoshi’s thoughts and next steps would be in his plan for decentralization. These messages often appeared as riddles or parables- leaving the community debating on what the messages truly meant. His myth grew even larger, as the messages frequently referenced spiritual and philosophical ideas around crypto, further increasing his lore and the curiosity of the broader crypto community.

Ryoshi and $INU

Has Ryoshi returned to create a new and better token to directly challenge his original creation SHIBA INU?? This would be a reveal that would shock the crypto world! We are of the opinion YES! It is simply called $INU, and this token is an extremely important part in bringing his conceptual idea of decentralization one step closer to humanity.

There are numerous clues from the $TSUKA deployer that reveal this truth. If the $INU token is truly the newest creation of the mythical blockchain Guru called Ryoshi, this would ultimately become one of the most extraordinary token launches ever…. and it would be done in secret! Sometimes the truth is right in front of the eyes. Sometimes the forest cannot be seen for the trees…. and this would be very much in-line with how Ryoshi has moved in the past.

The clues from the $TSUKA deployer messages:

Below are clues from messages sent by the $TSUKA deployer that may point to Ryoshi being the creator of $INU. Please read them closely.

“I has a dream about a new chain for my puppy.”

Jun-06–2022 09:50:28 PM +UTC

QUESTIONS: Is Ryoshi alluding to his plan for a future Dog token? Why would he create a new Dog token?

Most $TSUKA researchers have determined that this message is referring to SHIB. Most feel that Ryoshi is referencing a new blockchain for SHIB. What they fail to realize is that Ryoshi had already long left the SHIB project by the time this deployer message was sent. Why would he refer to SHIB as “his” puppy belonging to him? Secondly, SHIB is almost 2 years old by the time this deployer message is sent. His “dream of a puppy” would seemingly refer to a plan for something entirely new and on the horizon.

“don t you like new journeys? I wasn t hacked. I do like new journeys”

Jun-07–2022 12:22:12 AM +UTC

QUESTIONS: Does it seems here that Ryoshi is again alluding to a NEW token in the future? Does he also seem to be doubling down and confirming the previous deployer message referring to a new Dog token?

Ryoshi re-emphasizes that he is thinking of a new project. He confirms his previous deployer message that indeed this new journey is true, and it will be with an entirely new “puppy”…. not SHIB.

“Tsuka will always remain pure from these inside deals and prearranged pumps. I have noticed for sometime that we do have a missing arrow in our quiver to level the playing field. We will not lose to these vc games that crush the average fren. So I have an announcement that will explain more.

An added path is needed to our journey.

We must not be in a rush unless the market calls for a blitz. However I want 2 empower each who share the vision.

I would like to also thank the vigorous work and dedication by the sangha. Your work has not gone unnoticed. You will see the I have been building in unison.”

(Jun-06–2023 04:10:35 AM +UTC)

QUESTIONS: Does Ryoshi hint at something important that he saw missing? Why did he announce this NEW PATH near the same time that $INU launched? Why does he says that he “want 2 empower”? Did he use the number ‘2’ in order to signify there will now be 2 tokens including Tsuka?

Arrows in the quiver are TOOLS used by hunters. It is a known fact that the original breed of INU was used in early Japan as a tool for the hunter. In fact, the AINU (a-inu) people are known as the original and most skillful archers in Japan.

Ryoshi says that he will “not lose to these VC games that crush the average fren.” It may be of note that the VC games may be referencing Shiba Inu. Is he making note that there is now a new and direct challenger to his former project Shiba Inu?

Ryoshi also emphasizes that he will be in no rush “for a full market blitz” There is no need to fully reveal that he is the creator of INU, because he feels that the current bear market is not the time to make that connection. We must wait for the proper market conditions for it to be revealed and the connections to be made explicitly.

Ryoshi here intentionally uses the number “2” instead of the word “to”. He also strategically uses the phrase “share the vision” to signify there is another group. He goes out of his way to explicitly thank the Sangha. It almost seems here that he is now speaking to 2 different groups of people, and uses direct reference to the Sangha to distinguish the conversation. He then thanks the Sangha, but seemingly focuses on another piece of his work.

THE HIDDEN MESSAGE:

I have been building in unison [INU-nison]

— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — -

“The dragon will breathe fire down on this chain and fuel this revolution forever. Know you hold the key to the most important part. To hold Tsuka you control the motions. To follow the star you control yours and many mores destiny. Look to the infinite night sky.

As I stated before empowerment will be forever with those who share this vision. For the people and governed by these very people. As one of a few that pass these strict guidelines. We must do what it takes to remain a decentralized community and most importantly a commodity. Every move is to make this ring true.”

COMMENTARY: Which star is Riyoshi referring here “to follow”? Why is he asking us to look to the INFINITE Night Sky? Have a look at the $INU website (launched almost 30-days prior to this message). You can see the White Inu Dog in the center. It is almost as if the white dog appears to be the Dog-star (Sirius), the brightest star amongst the infinite night sky serving as the ‘guide-line”…….

“Frens,
I have received many messages on chain, emails, and private messages voicing your concerns and stating your opinions.

This is why my blueprint is important. This is why the corrupt have tried to revert to my ways. Fulfilling a checklist to decentralization is the only way.

Few will never stand on the shoulders of many. Shoulder to shoulder we move in unison.

The Star will be your governance. Use its light, fueled by the dragons flame, to guide your way on the Dragons chain.

QUESTION: What is the blue-print that Ryoshi speaks about here?

Please take a look at the $INU website above. Is it written on a blue print? (more about this in part 2).

Ryoshi also again re-emphasizes moving “In Unison [INU-nison]” Oddly enough, INU can be seen “shoulder to shoulder” within this phrase when read forward or backward…

Words of the Master: The Power is In You ($INU)

It truly appears that Ryoshi has propelled us on another path in the journey towards the ultimate goal: DECENTRALIZATION. What is decentralization?True decentralization lies in the place of nature: where each member becomes their own active participant in the greater success of the whole. There is no ultimate leader and no pre-determined path. All for one, one for all. We create our own COLLECTIVE story together in-unison. Ryoshi’s own words ring true here :

This is the seed that he planted. Success is truly in all of our predetermined fate, but we must move together in-unison to achieve and reach our destiny and manifest this success. He teaches us here that TRUE POWER does not lie with the Master, or with the developer, or with the VC. ……YOU are the only Savior! This is the message that we have received from Ryoshi: $INU is the next step in the journey. The Power is in you. The Power is $INU.
