What it returns

The most influential crypto accounts following one X (Twitter) account, highest influence score first, each with its profile, counts and category. Which known builders, funds and traders follow a project is a strong signal on whether it is real. The ranking is refreshed rarely: each follower's figures are the ones read at observedAt, often months old — ask social-account for one of them now. Not scoped to any chain. A username no tracked account has answers 404.
