A Whale is a Steem user who has a lot of Steem power and influence on the platform. They can grant big earnings to users or reduce the reputation of steem users who post bad content. Many of them became whales getting into Steem early. Here's a site that has an index of all Steem users and their power and account value levels: https://steemwhales.com
Here's what I consider a Whale on Steem.
Big Whale: Only 25 Steem users have an account value of more than $1,000,000(USD).
