TFTC(@TFTC21):Someone has been inscribing the same poem to the Bitcoin blockchain 26 times over the last two weeks. "Thoughtless quartz clocks drift, while blocks stack, each a strict proof, the timechain keeps score." @glxyresearch traced it to a single sender with ~0.327 BTC (~$26K) depositing to one custodial service over and over. The service pays it back within hours, the sender re-deposits with the poem attached. 14 round trips so far, 5.22 BTC of gross volume on 0.327 BTC of principal. The only leakage across 28 deposits is 8,015 sats (~$6.50) in mining fees. No laundering. Could be farming a volume metric, an integration test running in prod, or an agent handed a wallet and a reason to transact.
