Yes, I am aware that some of the accounts with high balances are from exchanges.
But that being said, here are some accounts that are or have been active on Hive and hold large balances. I might be wrong about some of these.
https://blocks.blurtwallet.com/#/@mottler This one powered down on Hive a couple of years ago, I guess because the Steem witnesses stole its stake.
Would BLURT have liquidity if all these accounts decided to sell?
Maybe they haven't sold yet because it's not even worth it?
Regarding Hive Engine, it has been experiencing many issues lately. It’s no longer what it used to be. I hope it gets fixed, or another app might take its place.

More red flags.
By the way, what qualifies as an unclaimed account? If they powered down and haven't sold yet, would that count as a claimed account, right? Or do you also plan to zero out some accounts, like the Steem witnesses did?
