For many established KOLs who have been operating on X (Twitter) for years and have tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of followers, switching to Binance Square is essentially an additional growth track that is “closer to money and has a shorter monetization path.”
When posting content on X (Twitter), users need to jump out of the platform to take action; the conversion chain is long and losses are high. Meanwhile, on the Binance Square, high-quality content can attract real users who are ready to trade with real money at any time.
And switching platforms doesn’t mean starting from zero. The Square’s official “Yellow V (Creator Verification)” is specifically a fast pass prepared for mature creators on X (Twitter)—as long as you have 30,000+ followers on X (Twitter), after completing your basic profile information, you can directly apply and obtain the official Yellow V!
With this Yellow V certification, you can directly compress the time and effort cost of launching accounts across platforms to the minimum:
Skip the cold-start account-building phase: no need to build an IP from scratch—just inherit your X influence. Once you go live, you immediately get official endorsement.
Build reader trust in a flash: say goodbye to the awkward period of “nameless new accounts.” The Yellow V badge can significantly boost the conversion-to-follow rate of your content.
Monetization loop, done in one step: distribute the same set of content across channels simultaneously, with no entry barriers to content mining, posting/assisting deal leads, and invitation revenue sharing.
Of course, if you don’t have external follower accumulation for now, you can also take the native Square route: as long as you complete KYC identity verification, focus on high-quality content on the Square, go live to grow to 30,000 native followers, and your account has no violations, you can also easily submit an application and obtain the Yellow V badge.
1. Two major tiers and core requirements for Square influencer verification:
2. Full application process and operation path
1. Individual creators / KOLs (most recommended channel)
Applicable audience: mature influencers with 30,000+ followers on X (Twitter), or native authors whose audience on the Square reaches 30,000.
Application path: Open the Binance app → go to the 【Square】 on the homepage → tap the yellow plus icon at the bottom-right → select 【Creator Center】 → enter 【Profile】 → tap 【Edit】 at the top-right → find 【Apply Now for Influencer Verification】 and submit for review.
Practical advice: For influencers who have met the application requirements on X, you need to bind and link your X account during the application to facilitate review submission.
2. Media companies / investment institutions / project teams (business channel)
Applicable audience: Web3 project teams, research and investment institutions, crypto media, or official teams.
How to apply: Send an email to the official designated address square@binance.com.
Email required materials: company/project name, Binance UID, nature of the business, official website and social media links, and contact information of the official liaison.
Certification advantage: after passing the review, the account nickname can directly match the organization/project official name.
3. Tips to avoid pitfalls when applying for influencer verification
Don’t apply with empty information: before submitting, make sure to polish your avatar, nickname, and personal bio properly. Do not include private-domain lead-in contact details (e.g., TG, WeChat groups) or include recommendation-code watermarks; otherwise your application is very likely to be rejected by the review.
Note quarterly maintenance: getting the Yellow V badge is not a one-and-done deal. Each quarter, you must publish at least 1 compliant piece of content. Do not go inactive for a long time, otherwise the system may automatically revoke the badge.
Your influence accumulated on X (Twitter) is your ready-to-use hard asset—never waste it. Get the Yellow V certification first, then do operations from the shoulder of giants. Expanding across multiple platforms will get you better results with less effort!
