The change in the logo comes just days after Musk petitioned a court in the US to dismiss a lawsuit against him by Dogecoin investors for $258 billion over an alleged pyramid scheme. Last year in June, the plaintiffs in their complaint claimed that Musk had known since 2019 that the cryptocurrency had no value but he still promoted Dogecoin to profit from its trading, as reported by the news agency Reuters.
Elon Musk’s lawyers had called the lawsuit’s allegations a “fanciful work of fiction” over Musk’s “innocuous and often silly tweets” about Dogecoin, as reported by The Guardian. In 2022, the value of Dogecoin soared after Twitter CEO announced that Tesla merchandise could be purchased using it.
