Twitter has been using the Doge dog logo since Monday and we still don’t know why

Since Elon Musk acquired Twitter, the social media platform has seen frequent changes.

Twitter Blue has been revamped and now offers additional benefits to subscribers, including the display of the coveted blue checkmark, more exposure for your messages, the ability to change the color of the Twitter icon and much more.

Speaking of the Twitter icon, the platform’s iconic logo can be easily spotted from a league away, since the bluebird logo is more or less etched in our minds.

Things, however, are changing very quickly, and now, Twitter’s iconic blue bird logo has been replaced with a puppy logo: the Dogecoin cryptocurrency logo.

If you open Twitter on the web, you’ll notice that the bluebird logo has been replaced with the new Doge logo. The logo is currently the talk of the town on Twitter, as even the #TwitterLogo hashtag has been trending for hours.

Elon Musk, CEO of Twitter, recently tweeted a meme-tweet in which Doge showed his ID card to a police officer and claimed that the photo on the card was old. This has led many to speculate that the Twitter logo might change soon, and it has.

Later on Monday, he tweeted a reference to an earlier conversation on Twitter in which he pondered buying the platform and changing its bird logo to that of a chick. “As promised,” Musk tweeted with a screenshot of the chat.

Musk didn’t explain why Twitter’s home button is now an image of a dog. But in recent days, news has emerged that Musk and his lawyers are trying to dismiss a lawsuit filed by dogecoin investors who claim Musk raised the price of the cryptocurrency and then let it fall.

Plaintiffs are seeking $258 billion in damages as Musk’s lawyers argue the suit is a “work of fiction”.
