So doesn't that make this analysis useless?
- jstanley 5y agoYes, they might equally claim that almost all cash is owned by banks.
- docmarionum1 5y agoTaking Ethereum as an example, if I exclude the known institutional addresses (taken from etherscan's tags), the results change very little. The top 1% has about 92.5% of the ETH. Obviously many of the untagged ones could also be institutions, so in that respect, yes, it's "useless" because we can't know exactly who controls every address.
