Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 1 original post for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 233 interactions against 3.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.007%. Posts are seen about 38K times each, and 0.613% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.21% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.03 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 3% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 1 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 100% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 7.7K interactions, about 33x its own typical post. Only 1 original post have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Friday 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.

Starting a new company: You pay us $10k/mo and we send your competitors an endless stream of invites to be interviewed on 3 hour-long tech podcasts, speaking engagements, founder dinners, and all-day tech events so they can never get real work done and they fail.

Kalshi raised $1B at an $11B valuation. A decade ago, only a few thousand people knew what a prediction market was. Eighteen months ago, most prediction markets were banned - until we overcame the government to set them free. Over the past seven years, our community has opened up an entirely new category. Today, Kalshi is trusted, used, and loved by millions of people. It’s a part of everyday culture, and it’s driving one of the most important shifts in consumer behavior in recent history. The time has finally come for prediction markets to achieve their full potential and we are intent on making that happen. To all the believers and the early adopters: thank you.

Kalshi recently raised $300M+ at $5B from Sequoia, a16z, Paradigm and others. Since then, we've grown over 3x, hit $50B of annualized volume, and became the largest prediction market in the world. And today…Kalshi goes global. 140+ countries. 1 liquidity pool. https://t.co/Z2myzRw9bA

Ok so this 2016 trend got us thinking… we haven’t done a proper tour in a minute and maybe it’s time to change that in 2026. But what kind of tour do we start with? Do we do a college tour like the old days? We haven’t been back to India in AGES. Also we keep talking about going back to South America… anyway we are kind of down for wherever… let us know where to start???
