This is just one of those memes we have in the bitcoin network just to help paint a picture of how much an investor can possibly start I find it so fascinating because it would serve as a faster means of selling the idea of bicoin to a lay man who has no prior knowledge. I really love the concept and the pictorial representation just sends the message the right way

Who the hell calls humpbacks those who own more than 5,000 BTC? LOL. Also since when these fish are bigger than octopuses?  Tongue

Subjective dictionary. No one is ever going to use these terms, so they were picked for fun as said by mk4. You'll choose to either name me bitcoiner, no-coiner or whale. The in-between categories are just excessive.

(Also, change the image size dude!)

Ah this is true I mean it is from any valuable source ?
Yes, "some [more than half]" of the terms were given by Glassnode in an insight that they published back in February, while you can find the remaining half on "some" of the crypto glossaries [e.g. this one].

I'm pretty sure this was just made for fun lol. I mean, who even refers any bitcoiner as a "Bitcoin crab" or a "Bitcoin octopus"? That's ridiculous. I'm pretty sure only "whale" and "no-coiner" are what's being used 99.9% of the time.

I do consider myself as a bitcoin "plankton" as the proceeds that I received from campaign signatures are miniscule- but they get the job done for long-term HODLING.

But I do agree with you that these "ranks" were created by people purely for entertainment. Since "whales" and "sharks" have been used as terms for people who invest greatly on a certain aspect/investment, it's normal for people to be creative and create some other concept for relatively poor people like me. Nevertheless, I find this very amusing, at the same time, a slap of reality in terms of hierarchy.

I always have heard only about "whale"; never even heard about the term "shark" I guess, I can't remember actually. Well, according to this, though I was not planning to share, I'm in "CRAB" though the amount is far less than "Octopus". I had purchased quite a few bitcoin along with savings from my earning through my freelancing services. It was quite good amount but I sold it earlier. Now I hold a little amount but from the current sideways price, I'm planning to again DCA so that I don’t have to miss the potential pump.

Anyone being a crab or above should likely not really respond to which category the fall into (even shrimps may give it a thought).

Note: The ranks are non-exhaustive in their definition on the chart. I’d have to assume that a given rank’s BTC amount from Crab upwards represents the lower limit, being the upper (excluded) limit the value that represents the subsequent rank.

Ah this is true I mean it is from any valuable source ? or just you make it as your opinion?

Btw I did not heard those names are related in crypto except the whales and shirk(even I rarely heard about shirk). And also I don't think actually we need so much rank for the bitcoin holder. Whale is enough to identify/introduce a big bitcoin/crypto holder. Smiley

Up until today, I've only heard about the "whales" and "sharks" in bitcoin, i never knew that there were other ranks named after aquatic animals in bitcoin for every category of hodler.
