Transactions without a distinguishable pattern
Summary
Requests that execute transactions must not follow any distinguishable pattern.
Description
When they are implemented, distinguishable transaction patterns make it easier for malicious actors or unauthorized users to anticipate and exploit the system. By introducing randomness or unpredictability, the likelihood of unauthorized access or manipulation of system's flows is reduced.
