Profile verification badge, via ID card or passport could be another good option.

But this time, Medium seems to have taken extra steps to prevent another wave of fake accounts. Every new user must now verify their account with a phone number, adding another layer of authentication. This will make it harder for spammers to create multiple accounts and return after getting suspended. It’s a step in the right direction, one that could lead to less spam, fewer low-quality interactions, and ultimately, more money going to real writers rather than engagement farmers.
