Will they actually be doing ID verification? Binance is one of the investors, so it might just be "if you can pay $8 you can be whoever you want, at least for a while".
I don't get the link. Why would Binance be in favour of impersonating others for $8/month?
Crypto people are generally not in favor of providing your government ID for things. "Pay $8 in crypto and also give us your identification documents" will not be popular.
You do in fact need to prove your identity if you want to trade on binance. (KYC requirement.) So I don't see why they would have a problem with making people prove their identity for a bluecheck.
Last I checked, Binance does KYC.
Crypto to crypto Binance has no KYC option up to $10k per day or so.
