The Shib Army community has been stricken with shocking news of Ryoshi wiping out his Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) account and disappearing from the crowd. Apparently, the pseudonymous founder of the meme coin has not only deleted all of his tweets and photos, but also blog posts on Medium.
Mysterious One-Year Turnaround
In addition to Ryoshi’s sudden Twitter wipe out, the other surprise that the community is taken aback is the two farewell messages on Medium. At this time around, this is the only trace left of Ryoshi on social media. However, Ryoshi’s decision to flee the community might not have been spontaneous, as it comes exactly a year after his last message on social media.

Ryoshi made a bald move deleting all of his Tweets and replacing his profile picture with Jetsun Milarepa, a famous Tibetan monk and philosopher. However, some crypto enthusiasts believe this is a publicity stunt to create hype around his comeback.

I salute and thank you Ryoshi!’
