- pcmoney 5y agoSure but it very rare for an account with substantial follower numbers not to be a blue check (unless they became prominent during a time when Twitter had suspended the verification program for new blue checks). Blue checks also get recommended as people to follow more which inflates their numbers so it is a feedback cycle. I would wager that a blue check on Twitter is more valuable and monetizable than most 4 yr degrees.
