Based on scaling arguments and numerical simulations, we present a conjecture that provides a link between the persistence exponent $θ$ and the Hurst exponent $H$ of the process, thus sheding light on the spatial and temporal features of translocation. Furthermore, we show that this conjecture applies more generally to a broad class of self affine processes undergoing anomalous diffusion in bounded domains, and we discuss some significant examples.4 pages, 3 figures; to be published in Phys.
