BTS Achieves 1st-Ever U.S. Double-Platinum Certification With "Dynamite"

BTS has officially gone double platinum in the United States for the very first time!

On March 17 local time, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) announced that it had awarded BTS’s smash hit “Dynamite” three certifications at the same time: as of today, the song has been certified gold, platinum, and double platinum all at once.

According to the RIAA’s certification criteria, a song is certified gold after it moves 500,000 equivalent units, platinum after 1 million units, and double platinum after 2 million units.

“Dynamite” is now BTS’s first song ever to earn a double-platinum certification in the United States, as well as their fourth to go platinum (following “MIC Drop,” “Boy With Luv,” and “IDOL“).

Congratulations to BTS on their amazing achievement!
