This is an excellent question. You can’t right now. At one point all the pieces were in place for this type of independent verification (on the profile) but my hunch is it was too misleading and therefore removed. Think we need to wait until mainnet launch for FIDs and FNames. He does post a socials.txt iirc

Go to his profile, click into his NFTs, select the ENS collection, and scroll to the bottom until you see his account owns vitalik.eth

I had the same question when I first got here! After I’ve observed for a while, I’ll just say “I generally believe what the others are believing” but eventually it would be nice to have a better solution 🤝✨👏
