Time Nodes
Many actors try to avoid detection by not linking their wallets directly. Instead, they use CEXs or bridges to fund multiple wallets, and then use those wallets to buy a token or participate in a presale. Fortunately, most of these actions are coordinated and can still be linked in an abstract way. That is exactly what Time Nodes are built for.
Why Timing Matters?
Wallets that act within the same moments often share intent; This happens in situations such as:
sniping tokens at launch
rotating funds through CEXs
executing coordinated sells
claiming airdrops
Traditional clustering cannot detect these relationships.
Time Nodes highlight them automatically
How does it work?
In traditional bubble maps, DEX, CEXs and contracts are hidden by default because they create large clusters that do not carry meaningful information.
Time Nodes solve this by adding a time based dimension. Instead of showing an exchange as a single node, it is split into multiple abstract nodes, each representing a specific time window. Other wallets are only connected if they interacted with the same exchange during that window.
These Time Nodes are visually distinct on a bubble map. They appear as solid colored bubbles with a logo, rather than the usual gradient
Some examples
Between Sep 13 and Sep 24, more than 150 wallets were funded from Binance in tight time windows. Each sent SOL to a fresh wallet, which then bought BULLISH in the first 30 minutes after launch on October 2. Several CEX clusters match several distinct funding timings.
Multiple addresses sniped the token within very short time windows, forming a clear cluster around the Uniswap DEX
