Elon Musk Recalls His Legendary DOGE Twitter-Logo Move: 'That Was Awesome'

Elon Musk Embraces Doge Meme Stunt on Twitter

In a recent exchange on X (formerly Twitter), Elon Musk showed his approval for a playful prank he pulled two years ago. The tech billionaire briefly replaced Twitter's logo with the famous Doge meme, sparking excitement in the Dogecoin community.

The conversation started when user "DogeDesigner" reminded followers: "Elon Musk once replaced this platform's logo with the iconic Doge meme." Musk, now using the handle "Kekius Maximus," replied enthusiastically with "that was awesome" and a laughing emoji.

When Musk made the logo switch in April 2023, it had an immediate effect on Dogecoin's market value. The cryptocurrency initially rose 8%, then quickly gained another 30%. Many in the Dogecoin community saw this as Musk's way of bringing his favorite meme coin into the platform before its rebranding to X.

Musk's $44 billion acquisition of Twitter (now X) in October 2022 continues to generate interest across tech and crypto circles. The Doge logo incident highlights his signature mix of humor and unpredictability in business and social media.
