What is X (Twitter)?
X (originally Twitter) launched in March 2006 from a brainstorm at podcasting startup Odeo. Jack Dorsey sent the first tweet — "just setting up my twttr" — and the platform grew into a real-time public square with hundreds of millions of daily users.
Every X account is identified internally by a 64-bit numeric "snowflake" ID assigned the moment the account is created. The visible @handle can be changed at any time, but the snowflake ID is permanent — it survives renames, ownership transfers, and even the rebrand from Twitter to X in 2023.
How X (Twitter) user IDs evolved
From the very first IDs to today's modern numeric format — here's how the system grew alongside the platform itself.
-
2006
Sequential 32-bit IDs
Twitter's very first accounts received tiny, sequential numeric IDs. Jack Dorsey's account ID is 12; @biz is 13; @ev is 20. The numbers grew steadily as new users signed up.
-
2010
Migration to Snowflake
In June 2010 Twitter introduced its Snowflake distributed ID generator to escape the 32-bit ceiling. From that point on, new account IDs jumped into the billions and trillions. The result: today's newer accounts get IDs like
1453600981451694082while early accounts kept their tiny numbers. -
2014
Tweet IDs migrated too
Tweet IDs (and DM, list, and media IDs) all moved to snowflake — every object on Twitter now has a 64-bit numeric primary key.
-
2023
Rebrand to X — IDs unchanged
When Twitter rebranded to X in July 2023, every account retained its original snowflake ID. Your numeric ID is the only piece of your account that has never changed.

Why your X numeric ID matters
- Developer tools and analytics workflows often require the numeric user ID instead of the public @handle.
- Ad targeting & analytics: tools like X Ads Manager, Sprout, Hootsuite, and Brandwatch all index accounts by their snowflake ID, not the @handle.
- Stable cross-database joining: if a user changes their @handle every six months, your records still match because the numeric ID never moves.
- Embedded tweets & widgets: the embed code references the user ID, so embeds keep working after a rename.
