Yesterday, a well-known SHIB influencer named Lucie announced on Twitter about the launch of a new Twitter account for Shiboshi, which is Shiba Inu’s non-fungible token (NFT). The new account, called “THE SHIBOSHIS,” was created by the Shiba Inu team.
Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer of Shiba Inu, and other members of the Shiba Inu community have started following the new Twitter account for Shiboshi, called “THE SHIBOSHIS.” As of the time of writing, the account has garnered 993 followers.
However, the Twitter handle has only posted a single tweet since its creation. It reads:
“In the meanwhile….”
It is important to note that the primary focus of the new Twitter account, “THE SHIBOSHIS,” is to share pertinent information related to Shiba Inu’s NFT project. The influencer, Lucie, also revealed that a new agency would be taking over the management of the account in the future. Additionally, she urged other SHIB supporters to follow the Shiboshisworld website.
Creating the “THE SHIBOSHIS” Twitter account makes it the latest Shiba Inu project to have a dedicated account on the platform. In the previous month, it was reported that the team responsible for Shiba Inu launched a Twitter account for Shibarium, the upcoming layer-2 network for the cryptocurrency currently in the public beta phase. This Shibarium Twitter account has already gained more than 13.7K followers and primarily shares information related to Shibarium.
SHIBOSHIS: Shiba Inu’s NFT Project
SHIBOSHIS is an NFT project owned by Shiba Inu. It consists of a limited collection of 10,000 NFTs, each of which is a distinctive pixel art representation of a Shiba Inu avatar generated randomly. Shiba Inu has disclosed that during the first phase of minting on October 14, the SHIBOSHIS project was extremely popular and sold out in just 34 minutes, dominating the Ethereum blockchain.
As per the announcement, during the minting phase, exclusive access to purchase SHIBOSHIS was given to LEASH holders. Each investor was allowed to purchase a maximum of 10 SHIBOSHIS.

The initial batch of 3,000 SHIBOSHIS was created by exchanging 0.1 ETH for an equivalent value of LEASH. Subsequently, the following 5,000 SHIBOSHIS were produced by exchanging 0.2 ETH for a similar value of LEASH. Finally, the last 2,000 SHIBOSHIS were created by exchanging 0.3 ETH for a similar value of LEASH. In summary, the price of minting the SHIBOSHIS increased with each batch.
Notably, the minting phase for SHIBOSHIS was so popular that it lasted only less than one hour. As a result, individuals who missed out on the initial opportunity can now only buy SHIBOSHIS from current owners. According to OpenSea, a well-known NFT marketplace, there are currently 3,562 individuals who own SHIBOSHIS. The lowest price that SHIBOSHIS is currently being sold for is 0.3195 ETH, equivalent to $577. This price is commonly called the “floor price” of SHIBOSHIS.
