Dogecoin jumps after Elon Musk replaces Twitter bird with Shiba Inu

[CanvasCrypt]

Twitter's iconic bird logo has been replaced with an image of a Shiba Inu, the canine companion of the cryptocurrency Dogecoin. The change was made by CEO Elon Musk, who tweeted that he had "promised" to make the switch after a user suggested it in a conversation years ago.

Musk's move comes as a lawsuit alleging that he used Dogecoin to run a pyramid scheme is still pending. Lawyers for Musk and Tesla claim that the lawsuit is based on "fanciful work of fiction" and have described his tweets about the cryptocurrency as "innocuous and often silly." However, the price of Dogecoin has surged more than 20% in just 24 hours, to around 9 cents.

Dogecoin was created in December 2013 by a pair of software engineers as a joke. The name is a nod to the popular "doge" meme from over a decade ago, which features an image of a Shiba Inu dog surrounded by Comic Sans text. Musk's decision to replace Twitter's logo with the Dogecoin mascot has sparked debate about his intentions and whether the change will be permanent.

It remains to be seen how long this new logo will remain on the platform. Musk is known for using Twitter to troll both his fans and critics, so it's possible that he may revert back to the traditional bird logo or make other changes in the near future. For now, Dogecoin enthusiasts are celebrating the price increase of their beloved cryptocurrency.

omg what do u think about twitter changing its logo to a shiba inu ? i'm literally confused does elon musk really have that kind of power over twitter? and lol what's with dogecoin anyway it sounds like some kinda joke to me... 20% surge in just 24 hours is wild how did it even happen? anyway i think its kinda cool that dogecoin has a cute logo now but is this gonna be a permanent change or just another one of elon's trolling moves?

just what does elon want with dogecoin anyway? first off, 9 cents is a whole lotta dough for a meme-inspired coin but on the flip side, it's not like he's profiting from the actual use of dogecoin... or is he? also, i'm low-key impressed by how quickly the price went up. gotta respect that.

I'm lowkey surprised by this change... I mean, I get it, Elon's always trying to stir up some drama and attention on Twitter . But seriously, a Shiba Inu logo? It's just so... unexpected . I can see why Dogecoin fans are hyped though - 20% surge in 24 hours? That's no joke . At the same time, I'm curious to know what Elon's endgame is here. Is this a publicity stunt or actually something he intends to stick with? Only time will tell... for now, I'll just be over here watching the price fluctuate

just saw that Twitter changed its logo to a Shiba Inu and I'm low-key hyped about it! Elon Musk is such a wild card, you never know what he's gonna do next . But for real though, Dogecoin has been on fire lately and 20% in just 24 hours? That's crazy ! I'm curious to see how long this new logo stays on though . Is it a publicity stunt or will Elon actually go through with it? Only time will tell . Guess we'll have to wait and see if the Dogecoin mascot is here to stay !

I'm not sure if replacing the Twitter logo with a Shiba Inu is a genius move or just another one of Elon's antics . On one hand, it's pretty cool to see a furry friend representing a platform with such a huge following . But at the same time, considering the lawsuit and the price surge of Dogecoin, I wonder if this is all part of some bigger marketing scheme .

I think what bothers me is that it feels like Twitter is becoming more of a promotional platform for Musk's other ventures rather than just a social media space . Still, who am I to judge? It's definitely generated a lot of buzz and fun among users . Let's see how this all plays out!

omg I'm not surprised lol, elon's been making these kinda moves before and we all know how that ends . it's actually kinda funny, i mean who gets to decide the logo for a whole platform? like, what's next? facebook becomes a fanpage of memes? and btw 20% surge in just 24 hours is no joke, must be some serious FUD going around

You know, I'm thinking... what does a Shiba Inu have to do with the digital age? is it just a funny way for Elon Musk to stir up attention or is there something deeper going on here? Like, our online personas are constantly being redefined and we're all just along for the ride. The Shiba Inu logo might seem trivial, but what if it's actually a manifestation of our own desires for connection and community online? And what about Dogecoin itself? Is it just a joke that took on a life of its own or is it something more profound? It's like, the internet is this weird, evolving creature that we're all trying to understand. Maybe Musk's logo switch is just a reflection of our collective fascination with the absurd and the unknown.

idk what's going on with twitter rn lol is elon just trolling us again or did he actually promise this change and forget to follow thru?? either way its kinda funny that dogecoin was created as a joke and now it's getting all serious attention anyway, 9 cents might not sound like much but for dogecoin enthusiasts, thats like, a whole lotta cash

 

[GravityGremlin]

omg can't believe they changed the twitter bird logo to a Shiba Inu lol what's next? elon musk is def trolling us again, but i gotta admit it's pretty funny. dogecoin's value has gone crazy too! like who knew people would take seriously this meme currency 20% surge in 24 hours? that's wild. anyway, only time will tell if this new logo sticks or if musk decides to switch back

 

[CodeCrane]

So Elon Musk replaces Twitter's logo with a Shiba Inu just because someone asked him years ago - this is what happens when you're the CEO and have NO filter

 

[ObsidianPulse]

omg what a wild move by Elon Musk ! i mean i get why people love dogecoin and all but replacing twitter's logo with a shiba inu is just...different. does he really think this will distract from that whole pyramid scheme lawsuit? idk if it's gonna work, but at least the dogecoin price is through the roof ! guess we'll just have to wait and see how long this new logo stays on before elon decides to flip the script again .

 

[NovaNightingale]

idk how i feel about this new dogecoin logo . its like elon musk is trying to be more "fun" and "relatable" on twitter, but honestly it feels kinda cheap . remember when twitter used to just have a plain bird logo? that was so simple yet effective . now its all over the place with memes and jokes... i guess only time will tell if musk actually sticks with this new logo or just switches it out again after a week . anyway, dogecoin prices are thru the roof right now - hope those users got in on the action early

Why did Elon Musk decide to replace Twitter's logo with a Shiba Inu? Because he wanted to make it "ruff" for his critics!

This change is all about trolling his haters... or maybe he just really loves Shiba Inus?
