On Monday, Twitter's iconic blue bird logo was replaced with the shiba inu dog image associated with the Dogecoin cryptocurrency. This change appears to be a late April Fool's day prank orchestrated by the platform's CEO, Elon Musk, who tweeted a meme about the change and shared screenshots of an old conversation where a user asked him to buy Twitter and change its logo to the Dogecoin's mascot.

Cryptocurrency investors have certainly had a difficult year, given the fairly stable prices for all popular digital currencies. However, recent market developments are once again adding volatility to the market.

This has led to a bullish trend for Bitcoin, since the cryptocurrency has surpassed the $4,000 threshold. In fact, the price recently saw a $200 growth, bouncing from $3,900 to $4,100. In return, this helped increase bitcoin’s market capitalization to over $70 billion, whereas the entire market’s worth is now situated at over $140 billion.

The recent price volatility has also encouraged price spikes for other cryptocurrencies. As such, Ethereum saw a 6% increase, whereas XRP and Litecoin gained around 5%.
