The traditional twitter bird icon has been started and replaced by an image of an Inu Shiba, an apparent wink in Dogecoin, the joke cryptocurrency on which CEO Elon Musk is prosecuted.
Musk turned to change on Monday afternoon, tweet“As promised” above an image of a one-year-old conversation in which another user suggested that Musk “simply buy Twitter” and “Change the bird logo into a Doge”.
The DOGE logo appeared on the site two days after Musk asked a judge to throw a racket trial of $ 258 billion accusing him of having directed a pyramidal program to support Dogecoin, according to Reuters.
The lawyers for Musk and Tesla qualified the trial by Dogecoin investors a “fanciful fictional work” on “harmless and often stupid tweets of Musk”.
It was not clear if the change of logo was permanent. Musk is known to use Twitter to troll his fans and criticism.
The price of Dogecoin, which is generally volatile, has increased by more than 20% in the last 24 hours, to around 9 cents. He exchanged a little less than 8 cents on Monday morning.
Dogecoin was created on December 6, 2013 by a pair of software engineers – like a joke. The name is a nod to the same “DOGE” which became popular ten years ago. His Shiba Inu mascot imitates that even: a dog surrounded by a bunch of comic strip text without the broken English.
