Shiba Inu Manager Shares Key Message With SHIB Community

Shiba Inu lead developer Shytoshi Kusama has shared an important message with the SHIB community. This message comes as cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike has experienced a major disruption due to a software upgrade issue.

A bug in an update released by CrowdStrike caused a cascading effect on global computer systems on Friday, with industries ranging from banking to aviation experiencing outages.

CrowdStrike is a cybersecurity solutions provider that develops software to help businesses detect and block hacks. Many Fortune 500 companies use CrowdStrike, including major global banks, healthcare providers, and energy companies.

The recent incident, which disrupted IT systems globally, exposed the risks of centralized systems as well as the potential of decentralized solutions.

Message from Shytoshi Kusama

In a screenshot posted via his official handle X, Shiba Inu manager Shytoshi Kusama wrote:

“As the world heads into the weekend, paralyzed by a simple update, it becomes clear that a new global operating system is needed. One that does not rely on a central authority, but is decentralized and powered by Web3 technologies that are, at their core, designed for days like this.

That’s why we talked to people about “treating yourself” on this world tour that has already been viewed hundreds of millions of times on platforms like Instagram. This tour isn’t about treating yourself, it’s about moving from an outdated Web2 mindset (and software) to a way to delight your customers, stakeholders, and yourself (if you’re not a business) with a higher level of engagement, security, and innovation.

Fortunately for innovators and the world at large, during the market downturn, our large decentralized community of builders and believers has been working on systems specifically designed for this occasion. As the inevitable toll of a global critical infrastructure outage is measured in financial loss and loss of life, we will lead the conversation on exactly why Web3 is the future and the Shiba Inu ecosystem is the operating system of that future.
