Threats between Ask the Doctor and Shiba Inu dev https://ift.tt/32ruEfs

It is an open war between a Shiba Inu developer and the Canadian medical portal Ask the Doctor. 

The story for the truth is far-fetched.

The poisonous tweets between a Shiba Inu developer and Ask the Doctor

A premise must be made. Ask the Doctor last December 1 had added as much as $1.5 million in token SHIB in his wallet announcing that it would soon accept SHIB as a means of payment on the same day. Because Ask the Doctor is nothing but a paid medical consulting service, which has also been accepting Bitcoin via BitPay for some time now. 

That said, soon, the Canadian portal changed its mind and started posting tweets against Shiba Inu, claiming it was a rug-pulling scam.

In one tweet, they would also publicly accuse one of the most prominent members of the Shiba community who hides behind the name Shytoshi Kusama of being behind the Squid Game scam.

Shytoshi Kusama, in turn, accused Ask the Doctor of being a scam account for also promoting another meme coin, Floki Inu. 

The accusations continued from both sides until Ask the Doctor announced that it would sue Shytoshi Kusama for defamation with the specific goal of discovering his identity as well.

Shytoshi Kusama reacted as follows:

“Tell your legal team that it is illegal to buy a verified account to use it to scam other people. Tell them it is illegal to take people’s money for a service you never provide. And if you REALLY want to come and get me… COME GET ME. It’s almost time anyway… I’m ready”

Others followed this tweet. In one, Shytoshi Kusama picked up on the accusations that he was behind the Squid Game scam, dismissing them out of hand and adding:

“I would sue YOUR company, but you aren’t worth my time. I have too many REAL projects to work on.”

No Excuses

No apology came from Ask the Doctor. However, the tweets against Shiba Inu and Shytoshi Kusama are gone, except for one. 

Shytoshi Kusama tweeted yesterday about having his father in the hospital due to the Omicron variant. The Ask the Doctor account responded:

To this gesture of solidarity, Shytoshi Kusama replied, thanking and proposing to start again differently, taking care of everything and staying safe. Perhaps this justifies the deletion of all venomous posts. 

Ask the Doctor promotes meme-coins

The peculiar thing about the story is that a medical portal, Ask the Doctor, which in theory should give questions and answers in the medical field, actually promotes cryptocurrencies. In the specific case, meme-coins. 

That’s also made Ask the Doctor a sort of influencer in the cryptocurrency sphere. It is no coincidence that, after the tweets against the Shiba Inu dev, the Ask the Doctor account has lost a thousand followers in a few minutes. 

It remains singular an affair involving a medical company and an anonymous developer of a meme-coin who threatens each other with a lawsuit by exchanging accusations of fraud.
