Elon Musk has revealed the branding for his proposed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), confirming the Shiba Inu dog as the department’s official mascot.
Introducing DOGE Department
Elon Musk sparked public interest by unveiling the branding for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) on platform X (formerly Twitter). The department’s mascot is a Shiba Inu dog, widely known as the symbol of Dogecoin.
Musk's Legal Victory and Support for Dogecoin
The announcement followed Musk’s recent legal win in a U.S. court, which dismissed accusations that he and Tesla misled investors through their promotion of Dogecoin. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that Musk’s social media statements—such as calling Dogecoin the 'future currency of Earth'—were aspirational, not deceptive. Musk and Tesla had been accused of participating in a pump-and-dump scheme and insider trading regarding Dogecoin. However, the court found these allegations unsubstantiated.
Trump's Proposal
Additionally, former U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed Musk to lead a commission to audit and eliminate inefficiencies in federal agencies.
These recent events highlight Elon Musk’s ongoing influence in the cryptocurrency community and his commitment to improving government efficiency.
