Some users have clarified that they did not pay for the subscription that includes the badge but it appeared due to a measure imposed by the social network. Initially, the verification badge was used to identify accounts of public interest such as journalists, politicians or celebrities, by proving authenticity, relevance and activity.

Recently, X announced that all accounts with over 2,500 verified followers would receive Premium features for free which includes the blue badge. This move has generated mixed reactions from users with some seeing it as a punishment for being active on the platform. Despite the ability to hide the badge, some functions may not be available without it being visible.

As the market landscape continues to change, so too will the role of cash buyers in real estate transactions remain a topic of discussion and interest.
