Twitter changes verification colour to gold; Here's how CSK reacted to 'yellove'

Twitter CEO Elon Musk has revamped the social media platform after the company's earlier idea failed. Earlier, a 'Twitter Blue' concept was introduced, wherein any individual could pay $8 with minimum verification to have their profile verified. As a result of this concept, several impersonators misused the social media platform and caused havoc by spreading fake news.

For example, one user pretended to represent US pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly and spread a massive piece of fake news by stating that insulin is now free, resulting in the company shedding billions in market cap after investors sold shares of the company. As a result of this chaos caused by the earlier concept, Musk has now introduced a new version of 'Twitter Blue', which has three different colours to indicate the authenticity of profiles.

'Twitter Blue' launches three different colours for verification

In the latest revamp, 'Twitter Blue' has introduced three different colours to verify official handles. Gold represents companies, grey represents government accounts, and blue represents individuals. When it comes to getting verification for individuals, they will need to undergo a manual authentication process to get the blue tick.

Similar to the previous version of 'Twitter Blue', users will stay have to pay $8 per month on the web to get their profile verified. However, this time, iOS users will have to pay $11 per month as compared to the previous $8 for all users. Twitter released a statement to confirm the news by stating that they have made some upgrades and improvements to their website.
