Elon Musk swaps a “Doge” meme for Twitter’s blue bird emblem

Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter, has returned with further modifications for the microblogging platform. This time, he has replaced the recognizable bluebird emblem, which served as the web version’s home button, with the “doge” meme of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency. On April 4, Twitter users noticed the “doge” meme, which is a component of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency and blockchain logo and was made as a joke in 2013.

Elon Musk also published a funny image of the “doge” meme on his account, which depicts Shiba Inu’s face, in the automobile, notifying the policeman who appears to be looking at his driver’s license, showing that his image has been updated. It’s noteworthy that the Twitter mobile application remained unchanged.

It is crucial to remember that the Shiba Inu doge is widely recognized as the logo of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency and blockchain, which was created as a joke in 2013 to ridicule Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, according to Variety.

The screenshot of the March 26, 2022, chat between the anonymous account and Twitter’s CEO shows the latter seeking to replace the bird logo with “doge.” Musk shared this article on Twitter and added, “As promised.”

The publication Variety claims that Musk, who spent USD 44 billion to purchase Twitter last year, is a well-known superfan of Doge and has promoted Dogecoin on both Twitter and while presenting “Saturday Night Live” last year. Dogecoin’s value increased by more than 20% following Monday’s update to Twitter’s online logo.

Before launching his ultimately successful attempt to acquire Twitter, Elon Musk wrote in March 2022 “Given that Twitter has become the de facto public town square, failure to uphold free speech norms gravely threatens democracy. What should be done?” Musk posted a tweet. Earlier, on February 15, Musk uploaded a picture of the Dogecoin blockchain and cryptocurrency emblem on his account while assuming the role of the CEO and writing, “The new CEO of Twitter is great,” demonstrating his passion for the “Doge” cryptocurrency.
