Shiba Inu: Shytoshi Kusama comes out of "quiet mode, here's his message
To the great joy of the SHIB army, Shytoshi Kusama, the lead of the Shiba Inu project, has recently "come out of quiet mode" on his Telegram channel "Shibarium Tech." Kusama engaged in a message exchange with his followers, explaining that he and his team have been "busy with platforms to support the community and begin this network state," which is why SHIB fans have not been hearing from him much lately. "Sometimes silence is the best weapon," wrote the SHIB lead, implying that the efforts spent on work outweigh efforts spent on idle chatting. Kusama also shared that he had been talking to "very important individuals and some top in the community" about the next phase of Shibarium. This could mean that the SHIB project might have further important collaborations on the cards.

"Rich Dad Poor Dad" author reveals top assets for average investors
In a recent X post, Robert Kiyosaki, prominent investor and author of the world's bestselling book "Rich Dad Poor Dad," gave a new piece of advice to "average investors" like himself. Kiyosaki recommended not to pretend to be a Warren Buffet and "pick bottoms," but rather to accumulate strong assets and hold them for a long time. He stated that while investing, he relies on the Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) method. As part of his portfolio, the author has been accumulating gold, silver, real estate and Bitcoin (BTC) for years and used DCA for each. According to Kiyosaki, he purchased his first gold coin for $50, and today that same coin is worth $2,000. "You can become rich by being an average investor, using dollar cost averaging to get rich," concluded Kiyosaki in the last sentence of his post.
