Former President Donald Trump hit the jackpot this spring when his social media company finally went public.

Even though Trump Media & Technology Group DJT generates very little revenue, investors are assigning an eye-popping valuation north of $9 billion to the company. Trump’s dominant stake in Trump Media is now valued at nearly $6 billion.

Yet new data shows its main product — the conservative-friendly social network Truth Social — remains a very tiny player in its industry, and it’s getting even smaller.

Truth Social’s average number of daily active US users on iOS and Android dropped by 19% year over year in April to about 113,000, according to data shared exclusively with CNN from Similarweb, a data intelligence company.

    While I don’t disagree that Truth Social is wildly overvalued and compares poorly to many other social media networks, daily average users and monthly average users are two different metrics. You can’t directly compare them; daily average users will be a number smaller than monthly average users for a given network.
