RE: Turbulent Times for Minnows, Dolphins and Whales.
One really interesting property about power laws is the sensitivity to mild changes. Say you get just one more "whale", but one who does not have a upper spending limit, then your entire revenue swings wildly higher. This makes any forecast much harder to be reliable, in comparison to a standard normal distribution.
Well it depends on what that whale decides to do with his steem. If he powers up then he is locked in for at least 3 months so he might start delegating and upvoting. If not then he will just dump on the open market.
