Per the last sentence, I seriously doubt you can back that prediction up with numbers. VOting is porportional, and the porportional voting power of the whales is growing, not shrinking. There might be a few inbetweeners who had many big articles upvoted and now have a 6 figure balance in SP. But the amount you have to have in your SP account to make a difference with a single vote is growing, not shrinking.

Sort:  

Veteran whales get bored, too rich, and will retire or move on to something new after powering down.

Some whales might even be human and just sort of "die" like in real life.

So what could transpire in a year from now is unknown.

yeah sure, its possible i suppose. But we can make predictions based on observed conditions. There is no evidence, aside from "all the whales might die" (which is kind of greusome and i really wouldnt want my vote to increase in value that way) which indicated that non-whale votes are going to be worth more a year from now (as fuzzy predicted) rather than less. The information available now indicateds that SP is consolidating, not dispersing.
