What is your definition of a whale? How many BTCs do you need to have to be a whale?
250 BTC, but normally the term 'whale' is often referred as a group of wealthy bitcoiners that attempts to manipulated a certain coin in the market for their own financial gain. 
The whale is the market participant who has more than 1000 bitcoins. If a market participant has a smaller number of bitcoins, then this is a dolphin. This is my personal classification and you can not agree with it.
We really do have funny guys on this thread and I really appreciate for making me to laugh after reading your post. However, I do not have up to 1000 bitcoins but please, I am not a dolphin 
… 1000btc is actually a lot anyway, and usually a whale is someone who has a lot of stake in the market to be able to move it in their direction, and it does not have to be only btc. At least, I am happy to be a whale in one of the altcoins that I invested in during the ICO and it feels good though. Also, one thing is that whales sometimes usually come together to make a collective decision in the market.

The term is using in BTC which means a big capital, big money Bitcoin players that show their hand in the Bitcoin market. Has been applied to the wrong class of investor because the players described below are truly the biggest creatures. The largest players have to stagger and obscure their market entries by splitting large trades into hundreds or thousands of small orders.
Whale is a kind of person who hold a large number of that coin to speculations for making their own profits.
They can control the price in their hand with that advantage easily and the victims of them are the panic selling and small investors, they're all be swallowed by the whales immediately.

A whale has to be defined in relation to the trading environment.
On a small exchange, a person selling 3 BTC of a cryptocurrency can definetly be a whale.
On a huge exchange, it might have to be 300 BTC though...
What makes a whale is the possibillity of obvious price manipulation.

The favorable position for being a whale is you can control the market cost and play with it as often as possible and for turning into a whale you ought to have Flexible adjust to conceal some great exchanges on the coin you wanted particularly with bitcoins, And I don't know on what is the impediment of being a whales since to the extent I know the dependably victor on the exchange is those individuals who have tremendous pocket to exchange on.
Whales are those who can move the market. People with 5000+ BTC or more are those considered whales. Man they are real big time.
Whale is reffered to an individual or group of people that can manipulate the market using their massive crypto wealth, The prescence of whale can be seen when a token experienced an escalated price in a short time span and suddenly dies out as quick, it skyrocketed, The price surge may not have occured due to news or actual reason but due to the existence of whale, Once the price spikes reaches a desired level, They begin to dump by selling all their holdings.

I only know that a whale is a person that has much of balance in bitcoin and altcoin so he can move the price too low or too high and he can follow the price wherever the price wants to go. maybe more than one thousand of bitcoin is a big whale and I see in the market, there are too many people that have much of bitcoin.
From the definition of what I everybody have given, it just seem that every one of us can be referred to as whale. In a case where price is rising and threads encouraging people to buy more, the moment we move in that direction which then further increase the price of bitcoin, then we have all agreed to influence price and the same thing goes for when price of bitcoin is falling. For the fact that we all agree to pursue a particular decision with the objective to influence price, we are all whale.

With 100 btc i am sure can bee a whale
Really? I am not quite sure about that. As far as I know, the term of "whale" has been connected to the big player of the market. How come one person that own 100BTC can dictate the market? Whales are the heavyweight players who can control the market and can manipulate price if they want.
