Hana is Shiba?
The Inspiration for the SHIB Logo at the core of our story is Hana, the Shiba Inu named by Paradox Designer as the primary inspiration for the iconic Shiba Inu logo that defines the SHIB memecoin. Launched in August 2020 by the anonymous founder Ryoshi, SHIB emerged as a decentralized experiment inspired by Dogecoin, growing into a multibillion-dollar ecosystem powered by the SHIBArmy and the Shibarium blockchain. Paradox’s choice of Hana as the muse for the logo wasn’t random—her spirited charm and quintessential Shiba Inu traits embody the loyalty, agility, and boldness that resonate with the crypto community. Hana was explicitly cited by Paradox as the creative spark, making her a foundational piece of SHIB’s visual identity and historical significance.
