Elon Musk, the new owner of Twitter, has stated that users who wish to see the "blue tick," which indicates that their account has been verified as legitimate, would need to pay $8 per month. Taking to social media, Musk wrote: "Twitter's current lords and peasants system for who has or doesn't have a blue checkmark is bullshit. Power to the people! Blue for $8/month."
He further said, "Price adjusted by country proportionate to purchasing power parity."
Musk's latest proposal for the verified symbol also includes the grant of some superpowers to real users.
