Krypto-Twitter, passt auf "verifizierte" Betrüger auf, jetzt wo jeder für einen Badge bezahlen kann. Früher konnten nur Celebrities einen Badge erhalten bzw. wurde der Badge mit dem weißen Häkchen willkürlich vergeben. Es sollen sogar Twitter-Mitarbeiter horrende Summen für einen Badge erhalten haben. Korruptionsverdacht. Also so ganz unrecht hat Elon in diesem Punkt nicht. Zwei Klassen Twitter. Lords und Peasants. In den USA soll man bald einen Badge für $8 im Monat kaufen können. Der Launch wurde verschoben. Allerdings könnten davon auch Scammers Gebraucht machen. Passt daher in den nächsten Tagen besonders auf Twitter auf und überweist generell eure wertvollen Kryptos keinen dubiosen "Gewinnspielen", wo ihr selbst etwas einzahlen müsst. Vitalik würde euch niemals auffordern ihm eure Kryptos zu überweisen, um sie zu verdoppeln. Fun fact: Auf Twitter ist es einfacher eine politische Diskriminierung zu melden als einen Fake-Account / ID Theft. Das gibt zu denken. Es gibt zwar eine Meldefunktion für Spam, aber keinen Punkt für Fake-Accounts. Was sagt ihr dazu? Würdet ihr $8 im Monat für einen Badge bezahlen? ## Scam with verified account and bot army of comments (tweet got deleted in the meantime)  *This is not the real vitalik.eth although the account has a verification badge, it has a different username than the real vitalik.eth (VitalikButerin at the time of this post).* ## Widespread verification https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1589403131770974208 ## Banning impersonation https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1589390597798125568 ## Measures against "verified" scammers announced https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1589401231545741312 ## Twitter loosing $4M each day, whew https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1588671155766194176 ## Ads as a political weapon, means to manipulate mass media. Big corporations exerting political pressure by canceling ads. Cancel Culture. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1588538640401018880 ## Elon Musk agrees Twitter staff privately sold verification for more than $15,000 https://www.tweaktown.com/news/89345/elon-musk-agrees-twitter-staff-privately-sold-verification-for-more-than-15-000/index.html ## English Crypto Twitter, watch out for "verified" scammers now that anyone can pay for a badge. Previously, only celebrities could get a badge, or the badge with the white checkmark was given arbitrarily. Even Twitter employees are said to have received horrendous sums for a badge. Suspicion of corruption. So Elon is not completely wrong on this point. Two classes of Twitter. Lords and peasants. In the U.S., you will soon be able to buy a badge for $8 a month. The launch has been postponed. However, scammers could also take advantage of it. Therefore, pay special attention to Twitter in the next few days and generally do not transfer your valuable cryptos to dubious "giveaways" where you have to deposit something first. Vitalik would never ask you to transfer your cryptos to him to double them. Fun fact: On Twitter, it's easier to report a political discrimination than a fake account / ID theft. Food for thought. There is a report function for spam, but no option to report fake accounts. What do you think? Would you pay $8 a month for a badge? *Live your Secrets and Hive Prosper* 🍯 xx Viki @vikisecrets
