Vitalik Buterin (@VitalikButerin) is estimated to earn $1,868 to $11,203 a month from X (formerly Twitter) creator payouts, if enrolled in Original Content Rewards. Ethereum co-founder posting technical and governance threads.
That figure comes from roughly 5.5M followers posting about 20 times a week, which we model at around 325.5M impressions a month. The audience is mixed worldwide and the niche is tech, crypto, finance or politics (premium-dense), which together set the applied rate at $5.74 to $34.42 per million impressions, including a 2.4× volume premium because Premium-subscriber engagement concentrates under the biggest accounts.
Within Crypto & Finance, that is below the median tracked account in the category, at about 63% of it. Engagement is classified as high, which sets how far each post travels beyond the follower count itself.
