Instead of the blue checkmark for verification it's been replaced with gold (for companies) and sliver checkmarks (for governments/politicians). And an individual can link his account with an verified organization (like the CEO of Binance).

I think it's better than the old system where people would try to bribe their way or put out fake press releases to obtain notoriety for a bluecheck. Now the bluecheck is more of a "I'm less likely to be a bot" signifier.
