That being said, I can think of some scenarios in which coins from different users end up in the same transaction.
Just out of a desire to be more educated on the subject, I'd like to understand how that could happen... In this case the 2 addresses are indeed part of
the same HD wallet -- it seems highly likely they are both owned by the same person.
Question: how do you know the bold part?
I read up on how Wallet Explorer works (it's a lot simpler than I thought) and I have to retract my use of the word "indeed" -- its just by far the most probable outcome.
If it were a CoinJoin-type transaction the amounts wouldn't be going straight to the same Binance address.
In the very off chance that its not the same HD wallet, I just don't understand why "different users" would entrust each other with their private keys unless they were very close, or more likely, the same person.
If the two users were cheating the same bounty or sig campaign then I would say its clear cut abuse, but in this instance they were enrolled in 2 different campaigns.
Just recapping the Ethereum address exchanges:
- both addresses sent Pindex (PDI) tokens to the
same LAToken address - both addresses sent Blockmason (BLINK) tokens to the same
Binance address- one address sent bitzon (BTZ)
to the otherIf any other account was doing this, they would be marked as a bounty cheater.
Additionally, the whole merit exchange thing is not great, and including each other in trust lists is quite bad.
I'm not going to take any action on these accounts but I definitely don't think they should be a merit source.
