This blog post isn't human speech, it's typical AI slop. (heh, sorry.)
Way too verbose to get the point across, excessive usage of un/ordered bullets, em dashes, "what i reported / what coinbase got wrong", it all reeks of slop.
Once you notice these micro-patterns, you can't unsee them.
Would you like me to create a cheat sheet for you with these tell tale signs so you have it for future reference?
Overuse of bold markup, particularly to begin each bullet point.
Overuse of "Here's..." to introduce or further every concept or idea.
A few parts of this article particularly jump out, such as the 2 lists following the "The SMS Flooding Attack" section (which incidentally begins "Here's where..."). A human wouldn't write them as lists (the first list in particular), they'd be normal paragraphs. Short bulleted lists are a good way to get across simple bite-sized pieces of information quickly, but that's in cases where people aren't going to read a large block of text, e.g. in ads. Overusing them in the wrong medium, breaking up a piece of prose like this, just hurts its flow and readability.
