The Blue Whale: above 100K BTC
Whale: 10K-100K BTC
Orca: 1K-10K BTC
Dolphin (The common dolphin): 100-999 BTC
Popoto (The smallest dolphin): 10-100 BTC
Tuna 1-10 BTC
Herring 0.1-1 BTC
Minnow 1sat-0.1 btc
Post other suggestions, but have to be consistent (with whale).
It looks like there are only a total of 20-40K or so of Blue whales, whales, orcas and dolphins combined.
A very small group indeed.

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

Winklevosses are close (but no reward). Not sure about others. Ver was one, probably, but sold at least some, most likely. I am sure there are a few more (less than 10 probably). |

Why does bitcoin just have "investors"? I thought it was supposed to be a currency.

I think that indiiduals with a stake in BTC more than 100k right now would be very few. A dozen or less. Why would anyone keep so many BTC anyway instead of investing? Perhaps we're only talking about enterprized, organizations and institutions at that level. Like, exchanges, funds, pools, wallet services and other entities dealing with bitcoins of others as a business. |

For the same reason that the dollar has investors as well as any other currency, the forex market is if I remember correctly bigger than the stock market so while bitcoin is treated mostly as an investment, it is not like bitcoin is the only currency being subjected to this kind of treatment. |

Pointless denomination, if you ask me, but I guess there's nothing wrong with indulging. But you do know it's this kind of thing that somehow makes the financial world take a long time to warm up to crypto. It's still seen like a virtual play thing incapable of being serious with terms like these. Anyway, we already know from public addresses where the concentration of Bitcoin wealth lies, even if we can only speculate on how many of those are actually unique, and how many of those entities are individual. I think more solid research has shown that dolphins and up are an even smaller group than you think, if classified as unique individuals. |

You made me laugh man when I saw this. I remembered the same post on FB and the lowest is categorized as a plankton.  Is there anyone other than Satoshi himself qualifying as a Blue Whale??
Like Craig Wright? Winklevosses are close (but no reward).
Not sure about others. Ver was one, probably, but sold at least some, most likely.
I am sure there are a few more (less than 10 probably).
The twins hold approximately 120k BTC's and with Ver, I don't think he's too wise to sell even a very small portion of his bitcoin holdings. He's promoting bitcoin cash but still he's a whale and had his BCH from the fork that made him whale from both sides. |

Like Craig Wright?/quote] I doubt that very much. He's a scam artist that likes the spotlight, i'd be surprised if he holds more than 500k in fiat worth of btc. |

I haven't seen the FB post where apparently something similar was proposed. |

I have seen the approx 96K number for twins. They did have more, but then one of them bought a ride on a space ship (or was it Virgin galactic?) and bought an expensive lego set (true that, not a joke). |
