I thought Elon musk is the only employee in twitter.

Good development.

At least some people will stop falling victim of wasting time and energy on parody accounts

Was that not the benefits of the blue tick before He bought Twitter?

I hate the fact that the verification badge can be gotten by anyone. It used to be special.


Sounds so dumb of you really
The fact that it's being paid for doesn't mean anyone can get it

There are definitely still some criteria that
must be met before talking about the payment procedure

Elon isn't dumb

See this mumu eating humble pie. Isn't this the same as the blue check mark? Dumbest rich man on the planet. To even think I considered this nonentity intelligent in the first place is baffling. Only two weeks, and you are already running Twitter into the ground.

Anybody that thinks Elon Musk is a genius after this Twitter debacle should donate their brain for research. They don't need it.

Before Elon musk bought Twitter, Twitter was making $700 million annually through adverts. Adverts generate 90% of Twitter's revenue.
Elon Musk buys Twitter for $44 billion through loans that he has to pay $1.5 billion interest annually.
Twitter set up a blue check mark system to verify accounts and control reckless utterances on the platform. The blue check mark and speech moderation policy of Twitter makes Twitter an advert hub for huge brands.
Elon musk buys Twitter, says there must be free speech and monetizes the blue check mark, this drives away advertisers, Twitter's major source of revenue.
Meanwhile only 1.8million accounts sign up for the blue check mark. That gives you $172 million annually. That is not even enough to pay the interest on the $1.5 billion interest.
Twitter will soon go burst and people still think this guy is a genius. grin

Official Account they will soon start billing $8 extra or risk suspension. Good move. Let's even know which account is active and those that are not.

Exactly. This guy is not making any sense. He should have just left the blue verification badge as it was. It's even harder to notice the new official sign.

Now that he has introduced this official sign, he will end up losing those 1.8millon subscriptions. The blue tick is now pointless.

The official page check mark isn't unique and is less noticable. Unlike the blue check mark which is in a class of its own.

Perhaps those accounts will automatically be upgraded to official. Whichever way he is still a wealthy dumbass.

If not that reasoning is far from some of you. What is special about this?

The blue tick was used to identify verified accounts.

Now its a paid service. So if that freaks you, you can get yours. Quite cheap so eventually everyone on twitter gets the blue tick.

The the official badge to identify the high and mighty (special ones) which you ll never get.

So what has changed really!!!

Some ppl are just so dumb

Wealthy and dumb, indeed. I don't think he'll upgrade those accounts to official because he's using it to differentiate between official and fake new channels, etc. in a way that regular users cannot.
