Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter, shook up the internet on April 4th when he replaced the iconic blue bird logo of the social media platform with none other than the “Doge” meme. As promised, this followed a conversation Musk had had with a user last year, where he was asked to change the blue bird logo to the Doge meme. To further catch the attention of the public, he also mentioned he will be supporting and buying Dogecoin—a well-known cryptocurrency.
The news brought a heated discussion to the platform, along with a bit of much-needed fun and positivity. From appreciating Musk’s decision to expressing their joy over a newly fun Twitter, the reactions spread across the platform quickly. Actor Jack Black also chimed in, interested in seeing what would happen if he didn’t pay for the verification checks on Twitter.
Elon Musk is no stranger to cryptocurrencies, as many might remember him for being the “Dogefather” due to his vocal support for Dogecoin in the past. Through his latest Twitter update, he seeks to promote the visibility and public acceptance of Dogecoin.
Twitter, popularly known as a micro-blogging platform, was created in San Francisco. The platform has become an integral part of the public during the current digital age, as users now rely on Twitter for news, entertainment, updates, and more. Twitter has evolved over the years, introducing many new updates and features, including the white bird version of its logo and its own verification process.
Meanwhile, Dogecoin, a cryptocurrency popularized by Musk, was initially created as a joke in 2013. Since then, it has become an increasingly popular option in the cryptocurrency market, backed by its to-the-moon slogan and the Dogefather’s endorsement. The newest meme-driven logo of Twitter is an excellent move to further push the market capitalization of Dogecoin and making it a hot asset.
