SHIB Army's Record Burn Spike 48,554% Following Kusama's Festive Message

Meanwhile, the SHIB price has recovered from yesterday's plunge, and Shytoshi Kusama, the mysterious SHIB leader, has posted a festive tweet.

Kusama stated that he has been "pretty quietly working like a dog" and has nearly forgotten to send season's greetings to the vast SHIB community worldwide. He wished everyone a Happy Easter in various forms, depending on their religion: Passover, Eid, and Gudi Padwa/Ugadi.

In addition, Kusama has invited Shibarium users and builders to attend the Blockchain Life Forum in Dubai on April 16 and say "hi" to the SHIB representatives.
