Twitter’s logo changed: The ‘blue bird’ logo has served as a home button on the web version of the micro-blogging site.
Elon Musk announced the new logo on Twitter by posting a screenshot of a conversation with the caption βas promisedβ. The screenshot shows a conversation between Musk and a Twitter user βChairmanβ with handle β@WSBChairmanβ where he suggested βjust buy twitterβ and βchange the bird logo to a dogeβ. To this, Musk responded saying βHaha that would sickβ.

It is speculated that this could be an April Fools’ joke that showed up two days late or it could be much bigger than that. With this little stunt, the price of cryptocurrency Dogecoin has gone up by 10 percent. However, it is still lower than its peak price in May 2021.
Notably, Musk is facing a $258 million racketeering lawsuit that accused him of operating a pyramid scheme to promote Dogecoin.
A New Logo with New Checkmarks
In other news, Musk announced that all the legacy accounts on the platform will lose their blue checkmarks starting April 1. While the verification sign has vanished for many, reportedly Musk does not have enough staff to get done with the procedure faster.
