JAKARTA - On Monday, April 3, Twitter changed its iconic blue bird logo with the popular currency logo, the dog image that is famous in the meme, Dogecoin. This seems to be one of the late April mop jokes of the world's company owner and billionaire Elon Musk.

Twitter users see that the blue bird logo on the main page and Twitter charging screen has been replaced with a shiba Inu image associated with Dogecoin currency.

Like Musk, they also posted memes to tell about the changes. Dogecoin's official account replied with a Verycurrency tweet. Wow. Much Coin. How Money. So Crypto.

Musk himself did not explain the reasons for this change, but some users speculated that this was a April mop joke the company couldn't solve on April 1.

This change in the Twitter logo comes just days after Musk asked the US court to reject a lawsuit filed by Dogecoin investors worth US$258 billion (Rp3,845 trillion) over the alleged pyramid scheme.

Reported by Reuters in June last year, according to the lawsuit, the plaintiffs claimed that Musk had known that since 2019 the cryptocurrency had no value, but he promoted Dogecoin to profit from his trade.

Musk used his profits as the richest person in the world to operate and manipulate the Dogecoin pyramid scheme for profit, exposure, and entertainment, the lawsuit reads.

The plaintiffs complained that Dogecoin's sales began when Musk appeared on Saturday Night Live and called Dogecoin a hustle' in the program segment.

Lawyers for Musk and Tesla have named the lawsuit claim a " fantastic fiction work" over Musk's "light and often ridiculous tweet about Dogecoin."

The value of Dogecoin jumped last year after Musk announced that Tesla's merchandise could be purchased using Dogecoin.

With the change in the Twitter logo, Dogecoin's value jumped from $0.079 to $0.094, the cryptocurrency's highest value since November last year.

According to leaked internal memos, Twitter is now worth less than 20 billion US dollars (IDR 298.1 trillion), less than half of the price Musk paid six months ago. Although he promised to remove the blue tick of the legacy for verified users starting April 1, the site only deleted the tick for the main Twitter account of The New York Times.
