Recently, I've seen a bunch of "smart money tags" and "whale clustering" again, but honestly I only believe half of it. Address profiling is pretty much like putting a house number on a building: you can tell roughly who lives there, but you don't necessarily know who is holding the keys inside. Someone might have multiple wallets, and hot wallets on exchanges mixed together—no matter how clever the clustering algorithm is, it can still make mistakes, especially when crossing chains, it gets even more confusing.
Plus, with recent rumors of increased taxes and tighter compliance in some places, deposit and withdrawal expectations have shifted, and the flow of funds looks "suddenly cautious," but it could also just mean everyone is switching channels or changing their rhythm, which doesn't necessarily mean their stance has changed. I'm now narrowing my focus: not chasing tags, just doing two things—checking if your permissions have been unnecessarily expanded, and whether the smart contract is like an unlocked door. This approach actually helps me stick to it better, and avoiding pitfalls is already a win.
