In a recent blog post, the masked SHIB lead developer Shytoshi Kusama outlined a proposal for a plan of establish in a Strategic Hub for Innovation and Blockchain (S.H.I.B.). This concept implies that such a hub is first to be created in a single U.S. city, potentially transforming the entire country using blockchain technology.
Kusama stressed that this plan will be presented to the future U.S. president, and in this blog post, it is offered to the entire global crypto community.
