Twitter Blue
One of Elon Musks' first ventures after he became the CEO of Twitter. It's the first of many schemes to fuel his goal of monetizing Twitter and squeezing every last penny from it. It's a monthly (purported $8) subscription you pay to get premium Twitter features, which now includes being able to get the Blue Verified checkmark.
I would bet many people are getting Twitter Blue simply for the checkmark now, which completely nullifies its original purpose as a way of ensuring a well-known or honorable person's authenticity.
Basically, Twitter Blue is the equivalent to Discord Nitro, and the Verified checkmark would be demoted to the same function as having a Nitro badge, which means nothing other than the fact you bought their subscription.

Thomas was a broke but renowned copyright-free music producer. After the events of Twitter Blue, he was furious to see his verified checkmark, something that took him ages to get, suddenly disappear. Thomas had never seen such bullshit before.
