Twitter CEO Elon Musk has changed the iconic blue bird logo of Twitter to a ”doge” meme of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency. However, there has been no change on Twitter’s mobile app. Twitter users were in for a surprise when they were greeted with the Shiba Inu logo instead of the Twitter bird logo. Many are wondering if it is a late April Fool’s Day prank or a permanent change.
This doge image of a Shiba Inu is the logo of the Dogecoin blockchain and cryptocurrency and was created as a joke in 2013 to mock other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.
According to Variety Magazine, Elon Musk who bought Twitter in a USD 44 billion deal is a superfan of the Doge meme. After the change to Twitter’s web logo, the value of Dogecoin rose more than 20 percent. which is its highest in more than a month.
