Hmm, i never seen such around facebook ever since i started using it late in 2011. Its been like that all time, everyone its just moving on with the normal badge. They improved instagram by adding the blue badge for more authentication of the user in demand of such.Well, Facebook also has that option where you get blue tick mark, which stands for page or profile verification. Just like on Twitter you can also request profile and page verification. The verification establishes you as a real person. However, in order to get verified, you will have to fulfill certain criteria.
