I am not sure if it is 'nice' when more then 10% of VIA is in the hands of one whale, even when he is a 'decent bloke'. Is that healthy for a currency when so many are in the hand of a very few (top 10 holding 30%)? I have no idea of the economics of wealth distribution, but I guess a healthy situation is when there is less concentration of wealth, unless the 'rich' seriously help to expland the VIA-economy. In case of for example BTC, the Winklevoss Bross own a decent share of BTC, but they are actually contributing seriously to build an economy around BTC, so their investment makes sense and is doing good for BTC. BTW, do they have an eye on VIA? They are clever guys. I guess it make sense when dev BTCDRAK or other devs have a serious share in VIA.
VIA is extremely young and I guess continuing dev work and community work will make it more and more attractive for real market, for devs who want to build on VIA blockchain and for investors.
Reference: I am a patient VIA-enthousiast (in top 100 on the VIA list) and thinking longterm (years).
