Attention content creators: hitting 5 million impressions is just the start, not the finish line.

Here's what actually matters for your payouts—verification status. Interactions from verified or Premium account holders? Those count. Engagements from regular accounts? They pump your reach and feel great on the surface, but they don't translate into direct earnings.

So the playbook is clear: verified/Premium engagement moves your needle on monetization. Everything else boosts visibility and algorithm performance, sure, but the wallet stays empty. Understand the mechanics, optimize accordingly.

After all that, 5 million views are useless; you still have to rely on influencers' engagement to get rewards.

So basically, you have to rely on influencers and paid users? This game rule is really ruthless.

Haha, so basically, you have to trick verified people into liking to make money... Regular users are just tools, right?

Damn, so my millions of views are all wasted? Only interactions from big influencers count for money?

ngl, this logic is a bit heartbreaking... Does it mean that all my 2 million followers' views are just for nothing?

Haha, isn't this just a blatant way of telling you that quality of fans is more important than quantity? Interactions from regular accounts are just free riding.
