Today, when looking at those "coincidental transfers" on the blockchain, they are actually mostly not coincidences... I usually start by breaking down the path: where the funds come from (exchange addresses / cross-chain bridges / certain old contracts), whether there are detours in the middle (split into several transactions, exchanging different tokens, waiting a few minutes before moving again), and finally where they end up (new address or old address, whether they go into the same pool again). By breaking it down this way, many "mysterious whales" turn into very ordinary practices like arbitrage / risk control / market making, not so mysterious anymore.



Recently, there's been talk about social mining and fan tokens, saying that attention is like mining... I think it's quite similar on the chain: the more concentrated the attention, the more the path can be disguised as random noise. Everyone is watching that one transaction, but the key is in the two hops before and after. Anyway, I just follow the rhythm, explain what I can, and treat what I can't explain as noise. Forget it, let's not talk about it for now.
