Shiba Inu’s Lucie S. Warns Against Celebrity-Endorsed Crypto

As a seasoned crypto investor with a background in following celebrities, I’m always on the lookout for the latest trends and developments in the space. However, Lucie’s recent caution against investing in celebrity-themed cryptocurrencies has given me pause.


Lucie S., the marketing chief at Shiba Inu, has issued a warning to potential investors: Be wary of investing in cryptocurrencies that gain popularity through celebrity endorsements.

As a researcher intrigued by the intersection of music and crypto, I found myself captivated by the entry of celebrities into the world of cryptocurrencies. However, upon reflecting on this phenomenon with a friend and scanning social media threads, it seems prudent to take a moment to assess the situation.— 𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐄 | SHIB.IO (@LucieSHIB) May 29, 2024

Initially, Lucie expressed surprise at the significant involvement of famous personalities in the cryptocurrency world. She confessed, “I found myself taken aback by their presence in crypto, almost starstruck.” However, following a stimulating conversation with a friend and a few thought-provoking tweets, Lucie suggested we take a moment to pause and reflect.

I, as a passionate fan of music and celebrities myself, noted that just because someone creates music you admire doesn’t automatically make them knowledgeable about cryptocurrencies. A case in point is Azalea’s coin, which experienced a significant decrease in value by approximately 60% the previous day.

As a researcher studying the dynamic meme coin market, I’ve observed an intriguing trend emerging: an increase in the launch of new celebrity-themed coins. These coins are either endorsed by influential crypto personalities or the famous individuals themselves.

As a crypto investor, I’ve noticed that Iggy Azalea’s mother’s coin, MOTHER, has been consistently promoted on the platform now called X, which was previously recognized as Twitter. The marketing blitz around this celebrity meme coin reflects the current trend in the crypto world.

The increasing prevalence of celebrity-backed cryptocurrencies has been linked to an elevated risk of fraudulent activities from known con artists in this space. As a result, potential investors are advised to practice heightened caution and thorough research before considering an investment in these tokens.

Lucie hints at the danger of rug pulls in the Shiba Inu market. This is a common tactic used by some memorabilia coin creators to swiftly sell their tokens to unsuspecting crypto investors right after the coin’s launch.

Additionally, it’s alleged that Sahil Arora, who has a reputation for involvement in cryptocurrency scams, is linked to the latest celebrity-driven pump-and-dump activities.

Lucie made the observation that memes can bring joy, yet they can turn sour just as easily. Remember, only put in what you’re prepared to potentially part with.
