FIDE is the world over the board organization that awards titles like Grandmaster.
No other organization's titles are worth anything.
Yes, Hikaru is a FIDE Grandmaster. Chess.com recognizes that title and posts the red GM in front of his name.
You have to get a real FIDE title first. This can only be done over-the-board in real life tournaments. Then you log in to chess.com and tell them that you're a grandmaster or International Master or whatever. They'll ask for proof. Then you show them proof and then they'll add the title next to your name and give you free diamond membership forever!

Always double check: when Chess.com recognises a title, you can hover over it and it will give the full description. There are also people who use the "GM" letters as an avatar so that on first glance on some screens, it looks like they have a title when in reality they haven't verified it with Chess.com
Hmm, but tournaments can sometime award titles even if you don't meet the rating requirements.
Does your FIDE profile show the CM title?
Somehow, It doesnt’t. 🤷♂️

Checks out - you should check with your federation.

The other kids in the tournament marked as c do have their CM titles despite their ratings.

You simply don't know how much wrong is your third sentence.
U can probably hack into chesscom and get a GM title urself although I wouldnt advise going that route
Sure it's possible. People hack governments, so why not chess.com.
It's just wildly impractical.
Easy. Just put your name as a real grandmaster and then try to play really well to get a good elo rating and then go to that page

You would need to hack FIDE. They issue the GM title.
