“And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” the social media platform's billionaire owner tweeted.
“If a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we’ll make go live worldwide tomorrow,” Musk, who bought Twitter for $44 billion last year, continued.
“Like this but X,” he added above an illustration of the iconic bird, but against a black background.
Since acquiring Twitter last October, Musk, who also owns SpaceX and Tesla, has made a slew of changes to the company, including mass layoffs, charging for blue tick verification and putting limits on the number of tweets a user can read in a day.
Earlier this year, the bird logo was temporarily replaced by Dogecoin's Shiba Inu dog, which helped add as much as $4 billion to the cryptocurrency platform's market value.
