An anonymous man built a coin and made someone else the largest holder without telling them. That person woke up one day with $1 BILLION he never asked for.
> In August 2020 a man calling himself Ryoshi launched Shiba Inu with one quadrillion tokens. No investors, no VCs.
> His entire plan was written in something he called a "woofpaper."
> It had one move. Send 50% of the entire supply directly to Vitalik Buterin. The co-founder of Ethereum without asking him.
> 500 TRILLION SHIB tokens landed in Vitalik's wallet one morning from a complete stranger.
> Ryoshi's reasoning "There is no greatness without a vulnerable point. As long as VB doesn't rug us, Shiba will grow and thrive."
> He made the most trusted man in crypto his unwilling business partner as a marketing strategy.
> By May 2021 those tokens were worth over $1 BILLION.
> Vitalik donated 50 TRILLION SHIB to India's COVID-19 relief fund worth $1.2 BILLION. The largest crypto donation in history.
> Then burned 410 TRILLION of the remaining tokens in a single transaction, erasing $6.7 BILLION, saying he didn't want to be a "locus of power" in a dog coin he never chose.
> SHIB pumped on the burn.
> In May 2022 Ryoshi deleted every account, every post, every trace of himself and vanished from the internet entirely.
> His final words "I am not important, and one day I will be gone without notice. Take the SHIBA and journey upwards frens."
> Nobody knows who he is. He never sold a single token.
> The coin reached a $40 BILLION market cap.
> The founder is gone, the man who received it never wanted it.
None of it was supposed to work and all of it did.
