When the news of an 8$/month verified account came out, I naively thought that meant verified would still mean that they verified the identity of the user. The badge should be swapped out for a green dollar sign and called “Paid” instead. There is obviously no verification involved now.

Yes! The way it is now, the blue check's symbolism morphed from "verified account" to "paying account". It's very misleading from a UI standpoint to change the significance of the symbol like that.
