Elon Musk Recently, the micro-blogging bluebird app, Twitter announced a change in its policy. The change brought many amendments to the norms on the blue app. The changes include taking away the blue verification make from accounts that were previously enjoying it and the necessity to pay a certain amount of money on a subscription for the blue verification mark to appear on a Twitter handle.
Surprisingly, a few days ago many Twitter users suddenly saw their previously verified blue marks disappear, while many others saw the blue mark turning to gray color. Users were already convinced that the Elon Musk-led Twitter regime might have taken the final decision regarding the monetization of the Twitter verification badge.
Prominent politicians, celebrities, opinion moulders and many Twitter users experienced this, but suddenly the blue badge Twitter verification started reappearing on the accounts of some Twitter users, even without the payment of a dime.
This happens to two set of users and it is caused by a single reason. Although many people are worrying if some calibre of people who now have the blue verification mark could pay Twitter for such purpose.
One, Twitter has decided to reward its users with one million and above followers with the blue verification mark without the payment of a dime.
Also, users with known habit of pulling conversation that attract interests from many other users are also being rewarded. This implies, if your account is not flagged and when you tweet hundreds of thousands of people always show interests in your tweet, you may just wake and find the blue verification mark on your Twitter profile.
However, something is not known, yet. Whether the blue verification mark would be given to this people for ever until probably when they lose the feature that qualifier them or it would only be rewarded to them for an uncertain number of months and later demand that they either pay for the blue verification mark or lose the mark.
