Many people have inquired how you can tell the difference between accounts that have been confirmed as official and subscribers to Twitter Blue with blue checkmarks, so Crawford responded in a tweet by saying: "We're introducing the 'Official' label to select accounts when we launch." The CEO continued, "The 'Official' label is not for sale and will not be applied to all previously confirmed accounts. Several prominent figures, important media outlets, commercial enterprises, business partners, and government accounts are among the accounts that will receive it.Is this Twitter’s NEW verification badge?

Crawford's use of language suggests that Twitter may no longer verify users, unless they are exceptionally well-known. When it begins to roll out the new label in the upcoming days, how it decides that should be clear. Following the change, there will be three different sorts of accounts on Twitter: those who have signed up for Twitter Blue, which displays a blue checkmark in place of the former "verified" mark; those who have an "official" designation in place of that mark; and those that have neither mark. You would think it would have been simpler to allow verified users keep their verified checkmark and to add a new mark for Blue subscribers, but this is the new Twitter, where everything is a little bit more complicated than before.A lot of folks have asked about how you'll be able to distinguish between @TwitterBlue subscribers with blue checkmarks and accounts that are verified as official, which is why we’re introducing the “Official" label to select accounts when we launch. pic.twitter.com/0p2Ae5nWpO
