Canadian Medical Platform Ask The Doctor wants to reveal true identity Shytoshi Kusamawho is behind Shiba Inu. In the background, there is a conflict between the portal and the SHIB community.
Ask The Doctor outraged by SHIB community leader’s words
Ask The Doctor, a Canadian medical Q&A platform, has announced that it will sue Shiba Inu Project (SHIB) volunteer Shytoshi Kusama for defamation, and will attempt to reveal his true identity so that it can sue him.
To understand the conflict, we need to go back in time. In a tweet on December 1, Ask The Doctor claimed to have added 31 billion SHIB (then worth about $1.5 million) to its balance sheet. On Monday, December 20, it tweeted that it had sold its SHIB tokens. The post added that SHIB is a scam. However, Twitter users claim that the company had previously heavily promoted SHIB tokens to retail investors.
Kusama responded to recent events. He accused the Ask The Doctor account of being a type of scam. He cited a tweet that promoted Floki Inu, another controversial cryptocurrency.
You’re a scam account. Where are all your “doctor” tweets from tour account created in what 2009? Gtfoh. Go scam another token like you planned on doing with your first tweets. .@askthedr pic.twitter.com/ceFqL8KFYv

Although the conflict began less than 24 hours ago, Ask the Doctor has already lost almost 10,000 Twitter followers, down to about 48,000. While the site said it had sold its SHIB, it did not explain why it had previously invested in a project it now considers a “scam.”
Tergiversation?
Ask The Doctor has previously revealed that it also holds bitcoin (BTC), ethers (ETH), cardano units (ADA), polkadot (DOT), polygon (MATIC), dogecoin (DOGE), and floki inu tokens (FLOKI). It has not yet announced that it is getting rid of those cryptocurrency holdings as well.
The company has since withdrawn its support for Shiba Inu, describing memecoin as a “scam.” At the time of this writing, Ask The Doctor continues to escalate the conflict on the social media platform. In more recent tweets, the company has stated that the price of the SHIB token itself is “heading towards zero.” The reason given is that Shytoshi Kusama and the other founders of the project have not revealed their true identities.
