Bluesky’s blue check system may rely on multiple organizations to distribute blue checks, according to the codebase changes.

That suggests Bluesky will actively verify notable accounts, but also label certain organizations as “trusted verifiers,” and give them the authority to directly issue blue checks themselves.

Bluesky CEO Jay Graber has hinted the company would try other types of verification.

The New York Times and other trusted news publishers may soon have the ability to verify users.
