On Tuesday, Musk outlined the Twitter verification plan in a series of tweets, following pushback over reports that Twitter would start charging a fee of $20 a month.
"Twitter’s current lords & peasants system for who has or doesn’t have a blue checkmark is bulls---," Musk wrote on the social media platform. "Power to the people! Blue for $8/month."
Musk continued that the price would be "adjusted by country proportionate to purchasing power parity." According to Musk, the updated service will also give users priority in replies, mentions and search, which he said is "essential to defeating spam." He said Twitter Blue will have fewer ads and provide the ability to post longer videos and audio.
The monthly verification fee, Musk said, would also give Twitter a revenue stream to reward content creators. This announcement comes just one day after news that Musk was reportedly going to start charging nearly $20 a month for the feature.
