Twitter is considering charging for the coveted blue check mark verifying the identity of its account holder, technology newsletter Platformer reported on Sunday, citing two people familiar with the matter, according to a NDTV report.
According to the report, users would have to subscribe to Twitter Blue at $4.99 a month or lose their “verified” badges if the project moves forward.
