Default Universe likely houses many ultramassive blackholes (40 billion solarmasses+)

Ultramassive blackholes, not to be confused with run-of-the-mill
supermassive blackholes! LOL!

Some maybe upto 100 billion solar masses! Just like stars are turning
out to be more massive than we ever thought, looks like blackholes are too.

Citing data from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Chandra X-ray Observatory, researchers found at least 10 black holes between 10 to 40 billion times the mass of the Sun.
