X owner and tech mogul Elon Musk has reacted to a tweet from X user “DogeDesigner,” when the latter published a reminder about a “prank” made by Musk on Twitter two years ago.
Making DOGE Twitter logo was "awesome": Musk
Back then, Musk briefly changed the Twitter logo with an image of the famous Doge meme, which also inspired the original meme cryptocurrency DOGE and became its mascot. It happened in April 2023, and DOGE existed as the Twitter logo for about a week.
“DogeDesigner” tweeted: “Elon Musk once replaced this platform’s logo with the iconic Doge meme.” Musk, who is currently using an X name “Kekius Maximus,” responded to it, showing that he does not regret that move with the logo loved by Doge fans: “That was awesome,” adding a “face with tears of joy” emoji to this comment.
When Musk replaced the blue bird logo with DOGE, the meme coin’s price jumped by approximately 8% and then rapidly added another 30%. The Dogecoin community decided that Musk had finally begun to integrate his favorite meme coin DOGE on Twitter (before it was rebranded as X). Prior to that, the Tesla CEO closed the deal of purchasing the renowned microblogging platform, Twitter, for $44 billion in October 2022.
