Despite their large numbers of followers — and being potential targets for scammers impersonating them — not every major Crypto Twitter personality has signed up or been given a blue checkmark since the platform removed legacy verification on April 20.
In a debate that’s almost exclusively limited to die hard enthusiasts of the social media platform, many individuals have opted not to pay Twitter $8 each month to retain a blue checkmark formerly given as a symbol of verification. Though it’s unclear whether certain high-profile figures in the crypto space have chosen to pay for the ‘Twitter Blue’ subscription to retain their verification status, some of their profiles still show the checkmark.
