i am just collecting info about lost bitcoins.
-snip-
is anybody can point me if such data set is already exist or just post such addresses here.

Information for a research or a bruteforce attack? Must be for research purposes...

In case if you're wondering if these "Black Holes" will alarmingly deplete the maximum amount of BTC in circulation, it will not be a problem as long as it's within millions (even 100k's). Satoshi seemingly foresighted this, that's why Bitcoin has 8 decimals right from the start.

Here's some Addresses with huge balance as you requested:

1KYYVUwWSMrNkje41jzvubSRsjABu3EUt6 - This was used to receive an average of 1BTC per transaction 'till it reached the current balance of 33BTC; interestingly, if you check all of its transactions, you will find more addresses with huge balance that weren't spent since 2011-2012.
1PP8m94LcTDpWXcx2T4niUcFsbf7BDw8Tk - Address used for mining that still has 37BTC balance.
And the famous 1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE which up until now, has been receiving minimum (change) amounts from random transactions.
