Recently, I saw someone post screenshots of several "coincidental transfers" with the caption "On-chain mysticism." Basically, most of these aren't coincidences; it's just that the path isn't broken down: the same funds are withdrawn from a CEX, pass through two hops into a consolidation address, then are split into many fragments by a script for matching/market making, and finally merged back at another entry point, making it look like "telepathic communication." I usually focus on the source of funds and the few fixed intermediate relay points; once the rhythm matches up, the story isn't so mysterious anymore.
If you only look at the last hop, you might indeed think it's "a big whale's precise secret code"; but connecting the previous authorizations, batch transfers, and the bridge, it's basically human laziness + diligent bots. By the way, I want to complain that L2 now is more noisy about TPS, fees, and subsidies, but once these on-chain paths cross multiple chains, whoever's cheaper will go there. No matter how tough you talk, scripts' voting can't be stopped. For now, let's leave it at that—high gas fees just mean my inspiration has run dry.
