Much like in the real world, the top hive holding accounts are not satisfied with what they have, they want more.
At least, many of them do.
You can't really blame them, more is often better.
But, at what point is enough enough?
Take a good look at what Paulag confirms here:

IF what we are doing here is becoming a contender for the reserve currency of the world, then we have to face the reality that the current holders of that title are not gonna buy into a platform that predetermines that they can't be at least contenders for the title in the new paradigm.
Ergo, we can't have enough concentration of hive that cements in the new boss being just as rich and powerful as the old boss.
Who knowingly buys into that?
Not rich people intent on staying in power, that is for sure.
Our only hope, as 'the community', is to hold more hive.
Power that shiznit up.
You, slave, are being presented with an opportunity to escape your slavery.
All you have to do is not kill the golden goose by pissing it all away.
I find it hard to believe that mathematical geniuses that ensured an 80% hold on the coin have let that grip on power slip below half.
If one of us wanted to map the holders as well as could be done with the opacity of the exchanges, we could put this speculation to rest.
When, exactly, does more hive get into more than a few hands enough that the coin is in reality 'community' controlled?
I remember the debates from early on about how the idea was to stay ahead of the inflation in order to not lose one's percentage of control.
I haven't see anybody map out how those efforts played out.
I do notice that many of those accounts sold everything we gave them and left.
Are you are tired of paying your masters to bomb children in far away places?
Perhaps it is time you pushed back on that.
A simple way that anybody can do that is to hoard your coins.
A dollar of change in your pocket is a dollar of value out of the banksters' pockets that force us to pay them so they can play in the amusement parks from hell and shop in the human grocery stores.
'Aint that fresh?'
Metal in your own possession will always have more intrinsic value than digits on a bankster's ledger.
What's so civil about war, anyway?
