Elon Musk believes Twitter Blue will 'probably' return towards the end of next week in the Blue tick saga.

 After pausing its $8 blue check subscription service, billionaire owner Musk said on Sunday that it will probably come back next week. The blue verification check mark subscription option disappeared on Friday, according to several users. According to an official source, the offer has been withdrawn. It's $7.99/month service on the micro-messaging site that enabled users to pay for a verification check mark was launched almost two weeks after the world's richest man took over the company.

Things went crazy after the paid blue tick feature was rolled out. The fake accounts of Donald Trump, Super Mario, Laker's player and even Jesus Christ were all carrying a blue verification tick. Due to this, Musk decided to stop the service temporarily. Hours after it was launched, the official labels were rolled back. The official label was rolled out to limit confusion between legitimate accounts and those that pay for their blue ticks. A day later, in his first company-wide email, Musk warned that if it failed to boost subscription revenue, it would not be able to survive the upcoming economic downturn.
