What’s everyone’s take in this strategy by Elon at Twitter?

He will now be charging an $8 per month fee to users to be able to maintain the sir blue check (as verified users).

On one hand, I do support verification of any and all accounts to seek out bots.

On the other hand, many Twitter users follow a number of these folks and if the blue checks refuse to pay the fee, then traffic on Twitter goes down the tubes, as will the revenues.
