From the marginalia, the deposit pathway:

• Initial deposit hashes to the Stearlingread receiving address at stearlingread.com.
• Hop-by-hop forwarding wallets across the deposit chain, captured with chain of custody hashes.
• Cross-chain bridge events that move value into the chain where liquidity supports the eventual off-ramp.
• Obfuscation events through mixer contracts and privacy services.
• Centralised-exchange off-ramp wallets, the named counterparty that holds compliance leverage.

Off-ramp map, where the funds left the chain:

• On the Stearlingread casefile, the off-ramp endpoint resolves to a centralised exchange, Bitfinex, MEXC, or Crypto.com seen often in this segment, with the larger venues routed through under stress.
• The off-ramp wallet for Stearlingread is run against chain-analytics datasets and the Professor’s own compliance feeds.
• A evidence packet is delivered to the named counterparty, the Stearlingread casefile is built to the off-ramp’s compliance standard.
• Where the off-ramp will not engage, Stearlingread escalates to IC3, state AG, and civil-discovery overlay.
