I meant the other way... how much is the pirate closure tainting say the receiving addresses of the last 10 transactions (or 10 random transactions since we are getting close to his weekly payout time)?

Feel free to use the block parser to gather you own stats and reach your own conclusions

I see, so you publish research without providing a baseline. Good scienceing.

My, are we grumpy this morning ... could it be that your latest
SR shipment is late and your mood is starting to suffer Grin

?

This is not a scientific study. I'm just pulling some raw data out
of the chain and publishing the tools I used to do that. That's all.

If you find said data useless or irrelevant, you are hereby granted
my official permission to ignore it.

28% taint on one transaction could just be somebody cashing out from pirate and spending 28% of it on drugs, could it not?

Absolutely correct, but the fact that *many* of the TXs going into the
fat address have a strong pirate taint strongly increases the likelihood
that the two addresses are "related". And that is easy to check, I published
the taint of every TX coming into the fat address.

The 6% total taint is slightly more interesting, but again, we have no baseline for comparison.

You already have everything setup, it would take me an hour to get started. If the problem is picking the addresses, here's 10 I pulled pseudorandomly from various recentish transactions:

I'll see what I can put together in terms of a baseline.

I've never made a purchase from SR, thanks.

Thank you for taking a look at creating a baseline.
