Insights into the Most Delegators

Hi fellow Hivers. Hope all's going well for you. Today I wanted to talk about some of the tables I figured out. Fasten your belts! There are some interesting things.

I had some questions about delegations on Hive to myself. Purposely, I checked the accounts that received the most delegations and the accounts that made the most delegations based on HP. If you have been spending time on Hive for a while, you have probably seen these accounts. There is no concern here. However, the other question that came to my mind was which accounts received the most delegations and made the most delegations based on the number of accounts, regardless of the HP amount? When I queried the results, I came across interesting tables.

I will not share the most delegators and receiver accounts based on HP here. In the table below, I ranked the accounts based on the number of accounts they delegated to, regardless of the amount of Hive Power delegated. It appears that many accounts are not actively being used. What could be the purpose of delegating 10 HP to many accounts? Most of these accounts seem to have delegated to newly created bot accounts.

Let's take a look at these accounts...

Let's also take a look at the accounts that received the most delegations in terms of quantity. As you might have guessed, when we look at the accounts that received the most delegations in terms of quantity, many of them are likely curation accounts. However, for those who are curious, I am sharing the table below.

It is easier to understand the second table that I shared. However, there are some interesting things in the first table. From what I understand, some users have automated the process of creating bot accounts. This was the first conclusion I drew when I examined some of the accounts in the table. So, what can be the purpose of such an operation?

One possible reason could be to increase the voting power of a main account by having the bot accounts vote for it. Another reason could be to use the bot accounts for other purposes, such as commenting or reblogging content. I did not look at the comment activities of these accounts. Additionally, some userrs may have created these bot accounts as part of their development or testing process. Sure, all of these are different options.

What would be your comment about these issue? Especially when you look at the accounts in the first table, what conclusions do you draw?
