Shytoshi Kusama, an influential figure in the cryptocurrency world and a lead Shiba Inu SHIB/USD developer, gave a cryptic response to a query about the best meme coin to invest in at present.
What Happened: A user asked Kusama, “Which meme coin should I buy now?” on X, formerly Twitter. The cryptocurrency personality responded by tweeting, “You know the answer. 🤪”.

Why It Matters: Kusama’s answer was peppered with a Zany face emoji indicating silliness. The vague response from him comes amidst a significant upsurge in the popularity of meme coins.
The Ethereum ETH/USD–based SHIB has shot up a whopping 180% so far in seven days, outperforming the gains of Dogecoin DOGE/USD. Some SHIB adherents label it as a “Dogecoin Killer.”
Another coin that has been generating Buzz has been the Solana SOL/USD-based Dogwifhat WIF/USD, which is up 335.5% so far this week.
It should be noted that WIF is in turn labeled a “Shiba Inu Killer” and it has been predicted by analyst Bluntz Capital to outperform at least two of its bigger meme rivals.
