How big is a whale?

[Red-Apple]

this is an interesting question for sure.

i think you can not give an specific number for this thing because the crypto market is not just one or a couple of coins, there are a lot of them. from million dollar bitcoin market to couple of dollars shitcoins.

so you can say a whale is someone who can change the market by putting up walls in orderbook that nobody can pass over then look at each coin and decide how much he will need.

A Basilosaurus typically grew to a size of 40 to 65 feet (12 to 20 meters) length.

Nice informations, do you think this fish survived cold age and remain hidden until now?
Big whales are players who can invest more then a million dollars in something. With that money you can move the market in direction they wish. Of course some markets are easy to be moved, others can be more stable. But you are big whale if you can affect market even a little with your moves.
I would like to know how many whaless swim in bitcoin waters. And is there one basilosaurus in deep waters?
