Every mote here is one of the hundred largest personal fortunes on earth. Packed together, they take the shape of a dorsal fin cutting the surface. The shape is borrowed on purpose: it is the same silhouette used for the world's documented shark encounters.
A fortune's size sets how bright and how large its mote burns, and how high it rides. The greatest wealth blazes hot gold at the very tip, breaking the surface alone; the rest settle green toward the waterline. Move your pointer, or tap, onto a mote to read whose fortune it is, what it is built on, and where it lives.
