Next week, Twitter will start removing the legacy verified marks from user profiles.

Twitter is moving towards a system where only paid subscribers and people who are part of approved organizations have that status.

“Legacy verified” accounts on Twitter are those that had already been verified under the prior system.

Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter, stated that “far too many corrupt legacy Blue’verification’ checkmarks exist”.

More paying subscribers, according to Musk, would also help to fix Twitter’s bot issue.

According to the company, paying Blue users receive greater priority in searches and replies, which helps combat spam and scams.

Paying subscribers will also receive a blue tick, have access to 4,000-character tweets, be able to edit their tweets.

Numerous journalists and public personalities are among those designated as verified without the Twitter Blue subscription.
