it depends on some factors,i recently discovered that many people that registered on steemit on the very earlier days when steemit first came on board all got some free steempowers and some also got huge steempowers at a very cheap rate,so that is how some people easily became whale on steemit,some people also came to steemit during those early days but later stopped visiting so that is why you see some steemit accounts with huge steempowers but the user is not active for several months..
I noticed this too and I would really love to read a good explanation because sometimes I wonder why have huge SP in an inactive account whereas there are so many minnows out there seeking support and many accounts that are doing great exploits seeking delegations on steemit. Someone please attend to this
There are many reasons for that and one funny one might be that they're dead. Now, I was kidding with that, but once in a while people might take vacations and leave their Steem account without doing anything, some might just keep their Steem tokens on Steemit as on a wallet even if they powered up while others are simply in between delegations or active and inactive times.
Over all I don't think that we have many such users, but you spotted good, there are some leaving their Steem Power unused and I just wish I had a delegation on that Steem Power.
