[Kalshi Has Removed All Affiliate Badge Icons from Non-Employee X Accounts] BlockBeats news, February 24, prediction platform Kalshi has removed all affiliate badge icons from non-employee X accounts. These badges were primarily used for external partners, promoters, or community members. Affiliate badges on the X platform are used to verify organizational functionality, allowing organizations to add badges to accounts associated with them to indicate official affiliation, enhance credibility, and prevent impersonation. On February 22, X's product lead Nikita Bier stated that X will launch a paid promotion content disclosure feature (including ads from Kalshi, Polymarket, etc.), and failure to disclose will result in account suspension.
