I understood it differently. It could be that i need to watch it again or I am just to unexperienced but.
I think he said:
There is a big delegator (@misterdelegation) who is delegating super much power to new accounts - like @dtube. When these normally small accounts vote with the delgated SP, they will generate their own steem power from curation rewards and become whales by time.
When they are whales, @misterdelegation can use this SP for creating other whales with this concept. And @dtube for excample can delegate to another user and build a new whale.
and so on.
He never said that the big account is voting by himself. Was he ?
does he ever said this ?
Kind of. If the Steem account starts voting that does not mean more whales will be created since other people will be able to create less whales.

the reward pool is false representation
only about 1/4 is used a day
also it decrease with vest as users power down
whales are powering down 500k steem a week currently
no whales will ever be created by popularity votes again rules were changed last year to ensure this
example if you got 1k STU on a post would be 297.6 STEEM 375.00 SBD (310.92 STEEM) = 607 STEEM a post
to reach whale at 500k steem would be 823 posts = roughly $823K USD earnings needed from votes
