Brad Garlinghouse engagement report

Measured over 4 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 31, 2026.
Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 4 original posts 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 4.2K interactions against 1.3M followers, an engagement rate of 0.322%. Posts are seen about 283K times each, and 1.48% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 21.7% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 20% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 4 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 25% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 25K interactions, about 6.1x its own typical post. Only 4 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 00:00 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.

Even when our backs were against the wall, we refused to fold. Always great to be back for XRP Las Vegas, and even BETTER to see $XRP up in lights. https://t.co/kBc9rqoklO

An extremely pointed message from @POTUS to those who are dragging their feet on CLARITY. This is, and always has been, about what’s in the best interest of the American people. https://t.co/t1CIFBOBg4

Congress has spent the better part of half a decade trying to pass a framework to onshore the future of finance. It is time for @BankingGOP to hold a markup and send the CLARITY Act to President Trump’s desk. Senate time is precious, and now is the time to act.

3 continents, 4 global office visits, 5 days. Crossed too many time zones to count... Recently, @MonicaLongSF and I (along with others on the Ripple leadership team) traveled to Dublin, London, Singapore and Sydney to meet with the Ripple Team (many of whom joined from our acquisitions of GTreasury, Hidden Road, Rail, Palisade and Solvexia). A few notes from the road - 1/ centers of gravity (business and/or employee) are never stagnant, and getting out of the US coastal mindset is imperative. It was incredibly energizing to hear from new and longtime Ripplers on what moves the needle where they are. 2/ Culture cannot be taken for granted. More than ever, we’re championing a maniacal focus and eliminating bureaucracy for employees to be owners. Don’t confuse activity with progress. 3/ Adoption doesn’t happen overnight. Platforms > point solutions. Meet customers where they are, not where they might be in a couple years. 4/ AI is becoming a fundamental part of our products – especially in cash forecasting and liquidity management in real-time for the office of the CFO. Employee productivity may be where AI starts, but the end goal is much bigger. 5/ 2026 is shaping up to be another defining year. We’re in the right markets with the right capabilities across payments, custody, liquidity and treasury management. There's a huge opportunity ahead, and we are making sure XRP is at the center of it.

No August doldrums in DC this week! It was great to join the inaugural @CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee (a group I've called "the Olympic roster of crypto.") But for a “crypto” gathering, there were a LOT of TradFi players in the room like @NASDAQ, @CMEGroup, @CBOE, @OptionsClearing, @NYSE, @The_DTCC (alphabet soup!) Everyone was in agreement. Rules written for a different era aren’t good enough. Not for consumers. Not for business. Not for innovation. I made this case in an open letter to Congress back in 2019. Seven years later, we STILL need clear rules…. Thanks to the Trump administration, appointees like @ChairmanSelig, and a myriad of bold leaders in Congress, we’ve never been closer. https://t.co/PS1W516Xk5

I've been in crypto long enough to know when a moment is real. This is one of them. 10 years of Swell converging with real scale, institutional adoption, and Swell + Apex together for the first time this fall. We've been building toward this moment — see you in New York! @RippleSwell https://t.co/Kzzcpb9NIB

14 years ago, we got together with an idea to build a better way to move value. What happened next was something none of us could have built alone. And by "us," I don't just mean the three of us. I mean the developers, validators, businesses, community members, and everyone who helped shape XRP into what it is today. Happy Birthday, XRP!

Great to be back on with @MariaBartiromo discussing Ripple’s banner year and accelerating momentum as we start 2026. Already, we are actively seeing Boards and CEOs pushing their CFOs and treasurers to understand how they can leverage and benefit from stablecoins. For corporates, there's no question that stablecoins are the gateway into crypto. Institutional adoption 🤝 real-world utility. https://t.co/WfSPi73vzH
