Shytoshi Kusama broke months of digital absence Monday as he reappeared to reveal the imminent completion of an independent artificial intelligence project.
The return concluded a period of isolation that began shortly after the release of his AI Paper in July. Kusama remained silent through most of 2025, with sporadic X posts and location updates, as the community navigated the significant LEASH token rebase issue and the September bridge exploit. These recoveries proceeded without the active social presence or public guidance that his one million followers expected.
Earlier insider reports confirmed that the perceived digital presence provided the concentration he needed to finalize a new technology stack. Kusama operated in isolation to prepare ventures designed to operate outside the traditional lines of decentralized finance.

“I am not appearing after a long silence with an AI video for hype, or huge promises,” Kusama shared on X. “I am here because what I have been building, alone, at the request of a small company and with the grace of God, is nearing completion.”
Kusama: AI Paper
Kusama’s return centers on the global evolution of AI described in his late 2025 manifesto. He advised his audience Monday to revisit that piece “to understand where we are as a planet and where Ai currently stands.”
The project, based on his X post, focuses on a build designed “beyond crypto & designed to help ,” the world. Kusama intends for this discourse to take many days. The re-emergence positions him as an independent creator rather than the customary visionary for Shiba Inu.
Technical Refinement and the Market Impact
On top of those, the Monday reappearance opened with a personal note of gratitude. “Good day to all of humanity,” Kusama posted. “I hope from my heart all of you had a good time with friends and family over the past or upcoming holidays.” He attributed his recent labor to a specific spiritual drive and the requirements of an unnamed corporate partner.
Kusama noted that “today is the day ordained to begin speaking on it.” He shared that the initiative currently moves toward the final stages of alpha testing, noting that “this reveal will take many days, there is much to discuss.”

Market prices responded with immediate volatility following the Monday X posts. Shiba Inu traded at $0.000007698, representing a 3.29% gain over a 24-hour period.
The gain contributes to a 5.4% price surge over the last 30 days. On-chain volume recorded a moderate 0.87% increase to reach $94.15 million as per recent data from Coingecko.
High liquidity in the spot markets indicates that buyers successfully absorbed initial profit-taking.
