    very interesting indeed,,, I've often wondered this exact question,,, just how "centralized" is bitcoin ownership,,,, not that I have any (maybe $6 worth).

    I like:
    ETH
    EOS
    COB
    IOTA
    ADA
    STEEM

    I also am keen to know how to find out how diversified the ownership of each cryptocurrency is? @I-am-mark (not sure if @ works I'm new to steem) :).
