Twitter CEO Elon Musk has once again made headlines with a new update for the micro-blogging site. This time, Musk has changed the iconic blue bird logo, which has served as a home button on the web version, with the "doge" meme of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency.

On Monday, April 03, 2023, Twitter users noticed the 'doge' meme, which is part of the logo of the Dogecoin blockchain and cryptocurrency, on the web version of Twitter. The 'doge' meme, created as a joke in 2013, features the face of a Shiba Inu.

The doge image (of a Shiba Inu) is well-known as the logo of the Dogecoin blockchain and cryptocurrency, which was created as a joke in 2013 to mock other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

Musk shared a humorous post on his account featuring the 'doge' meme in a car telling a police officer, who seems to be checking his driving license, that his photo has been changed. It is important to note that there was no change to Twitter's mobile app.
