It isn't relevant... I was venting more than anything


On the contrary, I believe it is a relatively new development.

As far as I can see, the original purpose of that thread was simply to highlight alt accounts of users... not necessarily because they were doing anything "Bad"™ or to try and get them all tagged/banned... However, the mk.2 and mk.3 versions of this initiative have now basically degenerated into a witch hunt where every post is of the form:


Which brings us to:
I agree... If they have actually been "caught".

Personally, I still don't believe that a bunch of ETH addresses sending tokens to one ETH address over several transactions really proves anything other than a bunch of tokens were transferred... it isn't like a Bitcoin transaction where a bunch of addresses all included as inputs in one transaction "prove" that the addresses were all controlled by the same wallet/person etc... unless my understanding of ETH is incorrect and you can actually include tokens from multiple addresses in one transaction like you can with BTC?

Anyway, at some point, it seems like someone applied this (incorrect) logic to multiple ETH transactions depositing to one ETH address... and now it seems like it's considered "beyond a reasonable doubt"-type proof??!? Look at the countless posts from these supposed alt accounts claiming "we're a group of friends/family/coworkers working together"... personally, I feel that their arguments (and accompanying "proof") are just as solid as the "all these ETH addresses transferred tokens to 0xSomeEthAddress, so they're all owned by the same person" argument. As far as I can tell, no one can really say for sure one way or the other.


Does this mean that ALL of these accounts are "groups of people working together"? No... I'm sure there are people using alts.
Does that mean they should ALL be tagged, just in case? I don't think so... at least, not without some "proper" evidence.
