Elon Musk Suggests New Price for Twitter Verification After Stephen King Criticizes $20 a Month Report

Elon Musk is suggesting a new price for Twitter verification after legendary author Stephen King criticized the reported price of $20 a month.

According to various reports, Twitter is considering charging verified users $19.99 per month to use Twitter Blue, which is a feature for verified users that unlocks additional features.

Under this new plan, Musk wants to charge every verified user the new rate of $19.99 per month or risk losing their blue check mark. Thus, the thousands and thousands of verified Twitter users with blue check marks, which indicates they are who they say they are while tweeting, could lose their verification status unless they pay the $19.99 monthly fee to join Twitter Blue.

King tweeted in response to the report, “$20 a month to keep my blue check? F–k that, they should pay me. If that gets instituted, I’m gone like Enron.”
