Elon Musk Says Twitter's New Multicoloured Verification Will Launch Next Week

Elon Musk said that Twitter will tentatively roll out a new multicolored verification system next week.

Under this scheme, companies will get a gold checkmark, government officials will get a grey checkmark, and the blue checkmark will be dedicated to individuals even if they are not celebrities. That would mean that the blue check mark will be used with legacy verified accounts and folks who buy Twitter's new $8 per month paid plan.

Musk added that the company aims to manually authenticate all verifications before the new verification system goes live.
