Social Bid is a sponsorship marketplace for X accounts: creators list their profile, brands bid to sponsor them, and creators keep 80%. Rankings are based purely on successful sponsorship payments with no weighting. Valuations skew wildly: Elon Musk at $241M, Bill Gates $64.4M, Mark Cuban $9.1M, Sam Altman $6.1M, while ordinary accounts start at $10. The poster asks who to onboard next and how much the community would bid.
