4. **Introduction**

Based on the latest data - X App is a top leading platform in the world with a traffic and  
credibility (thanks to community notes system)

I think Decentraland official twitter profile supposed to have a company golden badge subscription which cost 1000$ per month and 50$ for each affected account like **@DecentralandDAO , @InWorldBuilder , @MESHfair** for example

You can find examples of company verification badge on these metaverse profiles on X - @TheSandboxGame , @Nifty\_Island , @monaverse , @WilderWorld

> Visibility and Trust

Without company subscription - **Less visible and lower trust**

With subscription - **Higher visibility and trust among users**

“Imagine playing hide and seek. Without verification, you’re harder to find. With it, you’re in a special spot where everyone can see you and knows you’re in a game.”

> Affiliate Accounts

Without company subscription - **No specific benefits**

With a company subscription - **$50 per month for each affiliate account, with verification**

“We can think of DCL main account as our home and affiliate accounts as our friends’ houses like @DecentralandDAO, @InWorldBuilder or @MESHfair account. With verification, our friends’ houses get a special badge that shows they’re part of Decentraland company and affilieted with”

> Influence on Platform Algorithms

Without company subscription - **Standard algorithmic treatment like to everyone else with 8$ - 20$ basic subscription**

With a company subscription - **Prioritised algorithmic treatment**

“Without company verification, X treats DCL profile like everyone else. With it, X might give to DCL profile a secret boost that makes it more noticeable + to affilieted once as well”

> Brand Protection

Without company subscription - **Less protection against impersonation**

With a company subscription - **Increased protection against impersonation and fraud**

"“Without verification, it’s easier for someone to pretend they’re you, new users are on target, especially on hype era! With golden verification, it’s like having an X bodyguard that helps keep bots, scammers and fakers away.”

1. **General questions:** Will foundation budget for this expense in the future?

2. **Specific questions:** Foundation having a plans to upgrade in a specific month?

3. **Supporting documentation:**
