Marius OffChain's 5 August trace of one attacker beginning to mix 64 BTC: a 64 BTC input against a roughly 54 BTC output, so about 10 BTC mixed at the first hop, with the change then split into roughly 7 BTC pieces and mixed again. It names the receiving address, calls the pattern surprising and asks other on-chain analysts whether they have seen it before. tanuki42_-2084927029430870179 answers by identifying the coordinator, and bitcoinnewscom-2085117642567020750 reports the same figures that evening. Self-reported; the transactions are checkable on chain but are not reproduced here.
