Lately, the more I look at address profiles, the more uneasy I feel: tags, clustering, these things can serve as "clues," but not as "judgments." The same group of people switching wallets multiple times, crossing chains in circles—once tools cluster them, it’s like forcing different people to be one family; conversely, genuine teams can also be broken apart, looking like retail investors moving randomly. Honestly, I now trust the rhythm of capital flow more: the timing of entries and exits, common landing points, and which contracts they interact with—piecing it together makes it look like a person.
My mom also asked me, "Can't you tell who the whales are?" I said, it’s not that mysterious... At most, I just sense when something feels off and stay away.
Additionally, recently retail investors have been complaining about MEV and unfair ordering, which I understand too. Validators/miners have many ways to earn, and on-chain it looks like "being cut in line in the same second"—that’s really annoying. Anyway, my approach is: test the waters with small amounts before large ones, give less authorization if possible, tags are just for reference, don’t let them lead you by the nose.
