While we minnows are excited waiting for HF19 to change the playground which may become little bit more favoritable to us, the whales may not think the same.
I heard some rumors that the whales are powering down and getting profit out.
Let's assume the whales all cash out and become Dolphins. What will Steemit become where there is no whales around?
I am so interested to such a situation!
The whales are not cashing out, and HF19 is not an anti whale fork, it's a voting algo adjustment that happened before and will probably happen again to make our steemit experience a better one.
In celebration of HF19 I upvoted all the comments, but I worn out my voting power, sorry for the ones I will miss, I will do this again, so hopefully I get you on the next run.
wow you are a true hero thank you
The HF will likely help bring in new users and keep them so overall it's best for whales. Whales will have less voting power but their Steem will be worth more!
Ridiculuralizing/wearing off at old fashion, some of the best powers that will soon become unpowered.
=) Nice way to celebrate.. second that, but on your post. Hehe.
Done.
I think is a great opportunity for all newbie and little creator to have good upvoting
Thank you for working on the Steemit workings and posting about the change. It brings clarity to what's currently happening and is removing uncertainty in the process. I really appreciate all the efforts that are being made by everyone. :)
Check the stats @corn113 - https://steemdata.com/charts It is just not true that they are powering down.
I heard the same rumors, but who knows.I guess we just need to be patient and find ourselves how is this going to change Steemit. I find it quite unlikely that whales are powering down but... who knows,
Hopefully it is all for the better and we all keep growing !
Thanks for sharing!
If that was the case, I wonder how dramatic the price drop of steem would be since there would be suddenly less demand. I mean if all whales dump their blubber nothing will be hungry for a while
Proof that the whales are not powering down and cashing out.

There are no more powering down than normal, and some of the whales who do power down simply like keeping liquid steem rather than having everything in SP.
You're right, no real power down from the whales. Sounds like minnows' posts are getting a very nice pump up right after HF 19 was life.
Now I am interested to know if existing and not yet payout posts of the whales got adjust down?
Anyone has the figure?
