Additional clarification:
No one lost a verification badge today–If you received an email that your channel will no longer be verified, this was just an advanced notice & you can appeal
The checkmark has never appeared on YouTube mobile channel pages (this will be added soon)https://twitter.com/TeamYouTube/status/1174735005215420416 …
The checkmark was MORE than enough to know if the channel is the official channel. The new design looks honestly stupid and ridiculous. Just keep the Check mark man
