Elon Musk who recently concluded the purchase of Twitter wants to reform the social media platform.
In preparation for a redesign of the social media network, Elon Musk is considering charging Twitter users $20 (R370) per month or $240 (R4 400) per year for a blue tick on their accounts.
According to the tech journal Platformer, the CEO of Tesla plans to increase the $4.99 monthly cost of Twitter’s Blue subscription service to $19.99.
Users who have been validated by the platform and have a blue tick designating them as reliable sources would have 90 days to join Blue or risk losing their check mark.
