- Median following is 46,667, 3.2× the index-wide median of 14,533 — expect higher rate cards.
- 31% have recent content captured for judgement versus 19% overall — better-evidenced than average.
How to read these numbers: this covers creators indexed and validated inside Koinon Link, not every creator on the platform. Suspected bought-follower accounts are quarantined and excluded from the table above (shown separately). The authenticity score is our own anomaly detection over follower/engagement structure, not a platform-official metric. Figures update as collection continues.

Why this niche deserves its own view
"Cross-border" is defined by who the audience is and what job they do, not by what the creator posts about. Two creators can both cover AI tools while their audiences barely overlap — one talks to media buyers who care about creative and bids, the other to engineers who care about APIs and deployment. Searching by topic mixes them together; searching by audience function does not.
