Bluesky may soon add blue check verification | TechCrunch
Briefly

Bluesky plans to implement a new blue checkmark verification system, diverging from Twitter's approach by allowing multiple organizations to act as 'trusted verifiers' for account verification. This new method aims to enhance the credibility of notable accounts on the platform, with the potential for trusted news publishers like The New York Times to have verification authority. Users will be able to view which organizations granted the blue check by tapping on the verification symbol. This shift represents a stark contrast to X's recent subscription-based verification model.
Bluesky's upcoming blue check system will involve multiple organizations acting as 'trusted verifiers' to issue verifications, promoting a decentralized approach compared to Twitter's.
The new verification system is set to allow notable accounts to be actively verified by these organizations, distinguishing Bluesky's method from X's subscription-based model.
