Twitter and Tesla CEO Elon Musk decided to switch back to the classic bluebird logo today. This comes after three days since the DOGE mascot, also known as the original Shiba Inu meme, adorned the popular microblogging social platform.
According to Musk, the bold move was done to carry out a promise to his friend WSB Chairman. Further, the unexpected stunt by the billionaire also gave birth to speculation that Dogecoin (DOGE) will become the default in-app payment method.

The third largest Dogecoin whale “D8ZE” then sold off 300 million in DOGE, totaling $28.6 million at the time of the transaction. Naturally, the curious community of Crypto Twitter started asking questions.
