TechFlow reports that blockchain researcher BoringSleuth has uncovered connections between Shiba Inu founder Ryoshi and key figures and organizations in the crypto space. The research indicates that over two years before the launch of the SHIB token, Ryoshi had links to Vitalik Buterin, Binance developers, Wanxiang Group, and the CCP.
BoringSleuth meticulously traced the origin of the Shiba Inu Deployer wallet, which deployed the SHIB token on July 31, 2020. The investigation also revealed several critical associations tied to this wallet, including connections to Vitalik Buterin.
Regarding the developer's decision to "gift" billions of dollars worth of SHIB tokens to Vitalik Buterin, the researcher explained this was effectively a tax write-off.
Furthermore, BoringSleuth suggests that Ryoshi may be a pseudonym for two individuals linked to B2C2 Group, a firm that previously served as a market maker for Robinhood.
