Yesterday, Shiba Inu’s lead developer Shytoshi Kusama wrote an apology post devoted to a misleading countdown tweet. In this post, Kusama explained that he is not responsible for every detail of the Shib project and that he feels sorry for any confusion. Back on Sunday, Dec. 18, U.Today reported a great deal of speculation that the lead developer’s tweet inspired among SHIB community members: some thought that it hints at a major announcement, such as Shibarium. However, it turned out that the announcement was nothing more than an upgrade to the official website.

Thus, the meme coin lacks only 2% to surpass the important threshold of 60%, which will make the majority of holders on the network long-term investors. With a growing number of investors who are holding assets for more than a month, Shiba Inu's price performance should stabilize.

In a recent tweet, Ripple CTO David Schwartz reacted to a video featuring Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin participating in the Bankless podcast. In this video, Buterin called XRP “completely centralized,” adding that it has not apologized for “claiming that Bitcoin and Ethereum are Chinese-controlled.” Schwartz responded to Buterin’s words by writing that the Canadian programmer either still does not understand or is pretending not to understand that Ripple and XRP are two different things, a company and a digital asset. “He thinks XRP can say things!” said the Ripple CTO.
