Many public figures had their Twitter blue tick removed if not subscribed to Twitter Blue. Some have criticized Twitter CEO Elon Musk’s decision, while some found humorous links between the StarShip explosion and the Twitter blue ticks shutting down. Félix Lengyel, aka xQc, also commented on how much financial hit Musk took on this explosion.

Although, an interesting incident happened to the streamer amidst the Twitter blue tick removal chaos. xQc got a Twitter blue tick mark while others were getting theirs removed from Twitter. And this has made many curious as to how he got it, including the man himself.

xQc and fans equally shocked after finding that he has a blue tick on Twitter

xQc was streaming recently, talking about Twitter Blue. He got a surprising comment from chat who informed the streamer he has Twitter verification. The former pro player rushed to a new tab in his browser to verify this. When he saw the results, xQc had one question, “How did I get it?”

The streamer explained to chat he could not buy Twitter Blue even if he wanted to. Being a Canadian citizen, xQc had all his bank accounts in Canada. But xQc’s place of work residence is in the US. This causes a clash in the security features of the iPhone. According to xQc, “iPhone does not process any Canadian stuff on US stuff.”
