Twitter owner Elon Musk says he wants to get rid of the Twitter bird logo, and replace it with an “X”.
However, Mr Musk also has a history of making statements that fail to happen or are not serious.
Mr Musk, who has changed the name of the business to X Corp, said the replacement “should have been done a long time ago”, the BBC reports.
According to reports, the billionaire wants to create a “super app” called “X” which is similar to China’s WeChat.
He said on Sunday he was looking to change Twitter’s logo, tweeting: “And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds.”
He then said that an interim logo would go live later the same day.
Mr Musk posted an image of a flickering “X” on Twitter, and later in a Twitter Spaces audio chat, replied “Yes” when asked if the Twitter logo will change, adding that “it should have been done a long time ago”.
The company’s chief executive, Linda Yaccarino, wrote on the platform that the rebrand was an exciting new opportunity.
“Twitter made one massive impression and changed the way we communicate,” she said.
