There was a big change in the rewards pool yesterday ... 5 million STEEM was powered up and I've been trying to track it down. It would appear we have a new super whale on the blockchain:
The account was created yesterday using anonsteem and immediately powered up a massive 5,000,000 STEEM. That immediately gives them more SP than @Ned and @Dan. Who is this new whale? How will they use their influence on the blockchain?
Comment below if you know anything.

Maybe it has to do with the coming HF20. They said it will help streamline the signup process which includes delegating SP to new users.

HF20 should remove the need to delegate to new users, so I don't think that's it. I have some other ideas here, but I suppose we're all guessing.

Thank you, @andybets. I have checked it out and I think what you said there is reasonable.
Anyways, I have a feeling it is something good and Steem will benefit from it.

Wow. That's a lot of Steem. One to keep an eye on for sure. Interestingly, if you look on steemd under the authorities definition, it seems this account is mostly controlled by @steemit. There are multiple keys involved in the owner/active section.

VERY interesting. Perhaps this is a way for the founders to assert more control in some way... which could be viewed as a bad thing, in the sense of increasing centralization on the network. I'm hoping for more public information on this account soon..

Whoa!!! So this guy, in one fell swoop, becomes the biggest whale and most influential curation power on the site?
Wild times. I hope he enjoys weird music, lol.

Yes, here's hoping he's another hendrikdegrote! I have some other ideas though.

I don't know anything about it, but very cool. Perhaps its someone from China trying to make up for the Bitcoin fiasco? lol
More Steem than the founders?? Hmm....

Now that is quite some power. I guess that 99,9%(more like 100%) of us have no idea what is going to happen. Let’s just hope that the guy will be responsible:)

that is a really mindboggling amount... but going by the name this might be an account that is made for the distribution of steem power among the masses...
maybe a project set up by @steemit that bundles a lot of their power now that a lot of the steem power freed up from poloniex a while back...
hopefully they use their power for good (and give me a 100% upvote, lol)
