He/she is just starting stuff to drive up the buy.
Probably a pumper/dumper him/herself. 

That's been discussed here and there and there are some valid points that are recurrent on those discussions... Where does Business Insider base their info on? Do they count addresses as one individual?

And yes, if you link 1 address=1 individual, wealth disparity is bigger than some fiat currencies, that's known for quite some time... But 1 address = 1 individual isn't always true

I don't understand how they are getting those numbers?  It is a youtube comment so I am guessing it is probably fake.  I thought one of the greatest things with Bitcoin is you have no idea who is at the end of the wallet?

I don't see what the issue is.

Bitcoin was never meant to redistribute wealth and make the world more "fair".

It did not come from YouTube. It came from businessinsider and businessinsider got it from bitcointalk.

funny because it was mean to be like that, even satoshi would agree, there is the need to have few people holding more at the beginning, therefore many other can buy, and increase the price due to a strong demand

if everybody was starting with the same amount of btc, there will be less demand and just holding, the price would remain stuck there forever

Even if this was true, there was really Jo other way around to start a decentralized project like Bitcoin. In the beginning, there was only a handful of people that owned bitcoins. Satoshi, Hal, and the rest of few. So in the beginning, the distribution was worse ever. But it gets better as time is passing. I mean it's better today than 2 years ago when I got into Bitcoin and it will be better in two years than it was today if we continue with mass adoption.

Really nothing to worry about even if this data is true.

Even if he is right, this is the start of bitcoin.

Do you think all those people are going to hold onto their coins?

Who says 10% won't sell at 500$, 20% will sell at 800$, 30% will sell at 1500$, etc etc, maybe keep some of their coins but most people are looking into profiting from it right now.

With time this will get more and more stable, as we've seen lately with the price.

But never forget that we are still in the very beginning of this new era. Bitcoin will get more distributed with time, I am sure of that.

Yeah, I believe in the future bitcoin will be pushed back a couple decimals too. Or the word bit for 100k satoshis will become more popular instead with price rising.

There's no way of verifying it but I don't think there's much doubt that distribution is insanely skewed. There are enough heavy hitters who've admitted to enormous holdings. The question is, is that actually a problem?
