Compared with accounts its own size
David 'JoelKatz' Schwartz's engagement rate beats 73% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 46% 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 14:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.

SCAM ALERT: There has been a huge escalation lately in airdrop and giveaway scams targetting XRPL users lately. Any such posts you see are likely scams. Anyone claiming to be me on Instagram, Telegram, or almost anywhere else is likely a scammer. Stay safe XRP fam.

I hear this will be the largest @RippleSwell yet. I wouldn't miss it. The best part of these events is always seeing the new ways people are using XRP and building on the XRP Ledger. Looking forward to diving into core use cases around payments, tokenization, interoperability, DeFi, AI, and whatever comes next. Bring your best ideas and meet me there, XRP community. https://t.co/ZOxGt3Ni59

Amazon: If I shop for something and don't buy it, then it makes sense to show me ads for similar products. But if I shop for something big and do buy it, I definitely don't need anything similar. How do you not understand this?

Measured over 13 original posts, its engagement rate beats 73% of 3,882 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 102K times each, and 0.801% of those impressions turn into an interaction.

- What is David 'JoelKatz' Schwartz's engagement rate on X?
- David 'JoelKatz' Schwartz (@JoelKatz) has an engagement rate of 0.115%, based on the median interactions across 13 original posts from the last 30 days against 706,343 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.115%, David 'JoelKatz' Schwartz sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,582 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 @JoelKatz have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 73% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 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 @JoelKatz post?
- Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.13 posts per day across the measured window.
