Aren't tunas actually much larger than dolphins in reality?

Anyway, whoever satoshi is, if they wanted to exchange, they would have done so already - back in 2014.

Hopefully they aren't dead.

I would say they are about same size, but dolphins are smarter.

Actually the Killer whale is is 4-5 times bigger then Tunas and is biggest dolphin in existence.

the whale has to have something like 1000 bitcoins to use it for gambling or something like that little whale would be the person with 100 btc

It will change a lot thought time since yo uhave to consider the current price. In the future, anyone holding something like 21 BTC may have a decent impact on the market, as of right now while we are still on the early stages, here is how I see it at the current prize:

100 BTC: shark
1000 BTC: small whale
10000 BTC: medium whale
100000 BTC: big whale
1000000 BTC: satoshi

Ok, so then this will be the visualization for the bottom feeders like most of us. ^joke^

1 BTC: Plankton
10 BTC: Krill
20 BTC: Shrimps
50 BTC: Squid
80 BTC: Sardines

They feed the sharks and the whales ^LoL^ and there are millions of them out there. We form a important link in the food chain for the whales to survive.

I am one of those Remora fish, swimming with the sharks. I eat the leftovers after they have fed and I keep them clean and healthy. http://www.lightandsea.com/Tiger%20beach,%20Bahamas/hi-res/lemon%20shark%20and%20remoras%20fish.jpg

I think 10k BTC you are quite a whale. with 100k BTC you can drastically shake a market.

But i dont understand last chart, if Shark have 100BTC, how on earth can Sardines have 80.

Here is my chart:
0.5 BTC: sardines
2 BTC: fish
10 BTC: tuna
50 BTC: dolphin
100 BTC: shark
1000 BTC: small whale
10000 BTC: big whale
100000 BTC: pliosaurus

So confirmation120 still in Squad of Squid. And i still on plankton level. Cheesy

I agree with "1000000 BTC: satoshi"

1M BTC mean $279 x 1M
$ 279M

Aren't they the ones who can affect prices and pump and dump?
Whales can mean they can eat investors alive by making hypes about price going up but then these whales dumps to gain making investors look like sardines lol

I see Bitcasino.io has 63 900 BTC in Slot Jackpots. Do they physically have those coins or do they just offer that amount of coins, when people win these jackpots at different times?
It would be interesting, if someone could quote statistics on price movement on exchanges for the different amounts.
A whale should be someone, who can move the price of Bitcoin when he/she sells their coins. If that is the case, you are defined as a whale in my books.

Those 63900 BTC are there, but they dont belong to casino, but to people that invested BTC there, and get part of profit Casino makes. With Bitcoin is always that you cant have the imaginary ones. If you think you have them then they are not Bitcoins.

Bitcoin Whale: Have 100,000 BTC + holdings

Bitcoin Mini Whale, Dolphin whatever LOL: Have 20,000 BTC + holdings.

I'm wondering how many wallets there are with more than 100k Bitcoins.

bitcoinrichlist is taking down unfortunately, but i was aware about at least 10 of them, if this changed recently, i don't know, but it was not sure if those belong to one single different entity or a group or something else

Most of the whale bitcoin addresses are from early adopters. So my guessing on bitcoin whales must be only very few people who got chances to get bitcoin in it's early stages. Later people might have hesitated to invest into bitcoin. So, there is a less possible for whales who bought bitcoins.

Anyone can become a Bitcoin Whale, if they buy a large quantity of Bitcoins. You do not have to be a early adopter to qualify as a Bitcoin whale. There might even be wealthy business people, who came in late and operated successful businesses. < Patrick Burn or some of the online gambling operation >

Early adoption does not make you a whale, some of those people already spend most of those coins on Lambo's and ladies. ^hmf^

Just wanted to get thoughts and do sort of a survey..

In your opinion, who fits the description Bitcoin Whale? Who's eligible to be called a mini whale?

Responses appreciated

Follow me on twitter: @cryptotipz

Those people that holds a lot bitcoins maybe those older ones that have collected many bitcoins before.

A bitcoin whale is someone who controls a huge amount of bitcoin for example 100000 bitcoin. A whale probably has a HUGE capital which can sell or buy without making any losses.

Owners of huge amount of bitcoin. So they can manipulate bitcoin's price alone.
They may be ex regular guys who joined early by luck or,
They are dark shadowy characters with power.

It's quite sad, but the state of wealth inequality we see in countries will probably precipitate to Bitcoin as well. Sure, large holders early on will hustle and tustle, but eventually it'll become more centralised if it hasn't already.

there is also satoshi who is holding the most of any whale, what you consider him a super whale? or just The whale?

there were also, in the past big whales(bigger than 100k) who lost their coins, because of their incompetence

How do you know how much satoshi is holding? because of the same addresses that never moved any money?
I would consider all that money gone. If he wanted to do something with it, he would have done so already. Im starting to believe that either satoshi lost control of the coins somehow and now they are frozen forever, or satoshi is dead. I don't believe anyone can fight the temptation to have tons of millions and do nothing without them for so many years now.

Or the NSA created bitcoin as a social experiment on the practicality of a decentralised financial system.

LOL. No, it was just satoshi. He just put all the pieces together coherently. And if his coins ever move, it will be headline news, so don't worry about it. Wink
