It’s a sad day in the cryptocurrency community as one of the most beloved faces in the space has passed away.

The cryptocurrency world woke up to a tragic announcement this morning: the death of the Shiba Inu that inspired Dogecoin (DOGE).

Kapusu, the cute Japanese Shiba Inu who inspired countless internet memes and eventually the DOGE memecoin, took her final nap this morning shortly before 8 a.m., according to her owner’s blog post.

“Kabu-chan

Today is May 24th

7:50 am

I fell asleep…

out of the window

Birds chirp

On a beautiful morning

he hit me

To sleep

It passed quietly…”

Kapuso was 18 years old and 126 years old.

“Today, Kapuso, a friend and shared inspiration to our community, passed away peacefully in the arms of her own person. The impact this dog had around the world is immeasurable.

She was a being who knew only happiness and boundless love.

Please keep her spirit and her family in your heart, and most importantly carry her with you as your story continues – we are all so fortunate that she touched and shaped ours.

Atsuko Sado, the kindergarten teacher who rescued Kapuso in 2008, has long kept a blog about her life and pets. In 2010, she participated in a seemingly ordinary Kapuso photo shoot. Little did she know that she was about to change the Internet forever.

The adorable Shiba Inu has inspired more memes than can be measured. Ultimately, the Internet joke became a cryptocurrency that far exceeded the expectations and intentions of its founders. This memecoin has inspired the owner of an electric car company to believe in cryptocurrencies, pushing the digital asset deeper into the mainstream consciousness. Now, with the US elections approaching, cryptocurrency has become a major political hot topic – thanks in part to the attention brought to the sector by a very cute little dog in Japan.

Rest in peace, Kapuso. The world will never be the same.
