I think the badge is presently for verified accounts, but who is to say he wouldn't make the verification tag purchasable? The thing is, it's possible he'll do that, I don't think he understands the aspect of social media "Freedom". The fact that the new owner of Twitter is business oriented, It'll surely reflect on Twitter's Principles and all that.

I see. I think there’s a bit of confusion as to whether he’ll only be charging already verified users, or selling the verification to everyone entirely at the monthly subscription fee.
I agree about Elon showing his true colors soon. Many people believe Elon bought twitter to make it a better place. That may be the case, by we should remember first and foremost, the fact he’s a business man, and everything he does with his business is principally to make him money. His plans for twitter will be more of business oriented that superhero saving.
