I've been lurking in the group for a long time, but I can't help but say this: many people see those "coincidental transfers" on the chain and start conspiracy theories. Actually, if you analyze the paths carefully, most of them can be explained. For example, A sends to B, B immediately distributes to several new addresses, then loops back to C, which looks like a secret code, but it's usually: aggregation/distribution bots, temporary addresses for cross-chain bridges, or position adjustments for market making/lending. When the timing lines up, it seems "very coincidental." I usually focus on three things: whether the same set of funds is repeatedly moving through pools, whether the slippage/fees for each jump are reasonable, and whether the on/off ramps to exchanges match up. Recently, everyone has been criticizing validators' income and MEV for causing unfair ordering, which I can also understand... some paths are just "coincidences" caused by being inserted out of turn. Don't rush to accuse people; first, clarify the chain of links.
