Bitcoin replaces central, not commercial, banks

I don't see what the issue is.

Bitcoin was never meant to redistribute wealth and make the world more "fair".

It came from youtube, so I don't think I would really take what that user commented on that. Also, though what he said was true, just compare the figures to fiat and you will see which is much scarier.

I don't understand how they are getting those numbers?  It is a youtube comment so I am guessing it is probably fake.  I thought one of the greatest things with Bitcoin is you have no idea who is at the end of the wallet?

most of the 47 top addresses are exchanges, who manage thousands of users.
same for some of the top 880 addresses. these are hot wallets for exchanges and businesses.

so the comments are statistics but do not have substance.. as they have not looked into who/what those addresses are.

That's been discussed here and there and there are some valid points that are recurrent on those discussions... Where does Business Insider base their info on? Do they count addresses as one individual?

And yes, if you link 1 address=1 individual, wealth disparity is bigger than some fiat currencies, that's known for quite some time... But 1 address = 1 individual isn't always true

I was watching this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_hBhymFfm8 then was checking the comments and I found this :




I'd like to hear from you and what do you think about this comment ? is he right or wrong (on the last part )?

#1 dont read youtube video comments, there should be health warnings attached to them.
#2 there is no way to know who ownes a certain address, thus there is no way to know how many coins someone has, thus the whole thing can not be based on facts
#3 FUD
#4 individuals own individuals...?
