Engagement
A typical post picks up 261 interactions against 826K followers, an engagement rate of 0.032%. Measured over 31 original posts, its engagement rate beats 52% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 23K times each, and 1.13% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.79% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 31 posts sampled, 65% carry an image or video, 45% are part of a thread and 45% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.6K interactions, about 9.9x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Cardano Foundation's engagement rate beats 52% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 54% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Last week, Brazil's largest company @Petrobras opened its headquarters to Cardano. It was the first stop of Cardano on the Road, our initiative bringing academia, industry, and government together across Latin America. With some of Brazil’s largest institutions in the room, this was a meaningful step towards modernizing Brazil’s industry with the power of Cardano.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 261 interactions against 826K followers, an engagement rate of 0.032%. Measured over 31 original posts, its engagement rate beats 52% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

That is about 2.79% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

- What is Cardano Foundation's engagement rate on X?
- Cardano Foundation (@Cardano_CF) has an engagement rate of 0.032%, based on the median interactions across 31 original posts from the last 30 days against 826,448 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.032%, Cardano Foundation sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,654 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @Cardano_CF have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 52% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @Cardano_CF post?
- Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.63 posts per day across the measured window.
