Musk also disclosed that Twitter is willing to work with publishers.
This comes barely a week after the Verge revealed that the tech mogul wanted to charge people $19.99, Sh2400, a month for the new Twitter Blue subscription, which currently stands at $4.99 a month.
"For users who are currently verified, they will have to subscribe 90 days after the current plan is put into place, or risk losing their blue checkmark," the report by the verge states.
