Pseudonymous marketing lead of the Shiba Inu team known as Lucie has addressed the global SHIB army with a vital message, giving a “friendly reminder” about memes and the “wild world of crypto” in general.

Meanwhile, popular meme cryptocurrency SHIB has faced a massive price decline overnight, following the crash of Bitcoin.

SHIB marketing lead's warning to community

Speaking on behalf of the SHIB developer team, Lucie warned the Shiba Inu community that while everybody likes memes and meme coins, they must not forget to “DYOR” - a popular abbreviation in the crypto space that stands for “do your own research” - when planning to invest in new meme cryptocurrencies or in crypto in general.

“Remember, in the wild world of crypto, no one’s really your friend,” Lucie warned the SHIB army once again, adding: “So, keep your wits sharp and your boots ready for anything!”

Howdy, Shibarmy! 🤠 Just a friendly reminder: while these memes are all in good fun, don't forget to **DYOR**—do your own research! Remember, in the wild world of crypto, no one’s really your friend. So, keep your wits sharp and your boots ready for anything! pic.twitter.com/Aae653KWow

Lucie praises artificial intelligence tech

On Tuesday, Lucie published a tweet, in which she praised the emerging and strengthening AI technology, which is currently used by many, particularly in the sphere of art, letting users generate various images without mastering such professional design software as Photoshop.

Lucie tweeted that AI has removed “limits to your creativity,” as she shared a pfp (“proof and profile picture) of the mysterious SHIB leader Shytoshi Kusama from 2021. Shytoshi continues to remain pseudonymous. This year, however, he emerged at several public blockchain events (in Kyoto, Japan, and Mumbai, India), and then did a video interview with a leading UAE news outlet. However, in all these cases, he appeared wearing a mask.

He stated that he does not intend to reveal his true face since he believes himself not to be so important, putting the success of SHIB down to the SHIB team and the Shiba Inu community.
