The 12-foot, 560-pound logo, a symbol of Twitter's most influential years, is expected to sell for over $40,000 in a tech memorabilia auction ending March 20.

  • The auction, which began on February 27, 2025, is set to close on March 20 and includes other tech artifacts, such as Apple memorabilia and a functional Apple I computer.
  • The buyer will be responsible for the costs of moving the massive logo from its current storage location in San Francisco.
