Twitter Data: An Investor's Perspective
the problem with the user base seems more likely to be that you can ignore almost 75% of all users due to no activity

Not exactly - twitter, unlike facebook, is asymmetric, so you expect a large percentage of users who are just listening. That doesn't mean you can ignore them - they are the audience.

you're right about the asymmetry, but let's not pretend that 75% of 60M are actively listening to anyone...
I would be stunned if that number was higher than 10%
