Monetization
Estimated X creator earnings
$51–$121 in the last 30 days
From 10.1M views on @garrytan's original posts in the last 30 days.
Rewards eligibility: likely
Rough estimate. X publishes no payout rate, so this assumes about $5–12 per 1M original-post impressions from reported creator payouts. Only Premium viewers’ impressions count, so real payouts can be much lower.
