Wallet trace — what the Professor maps:

• Claimant deposit hashes — provided in the case submission and verified against the public ledger for TRADING CAPITAL.
• Forwarding wallets on the deposit chain — each hop documented with the forwarding tx hash and the consolidating wallet.
• Bridge events into chains where the operator can off-ramp at scale.
• Mixer or privacy-service interactions, where present, listed with the contract address and the deposit/withdraw side.
• Off-ramp endpoint — the centralised exchange deposit address holding the compliance lever.

Off-ramp summary — TRADING CAPITAL casefile:

• Endpoint counterparty in the TRADING CAPITAL casefile is named — typically a major venue such as OKX or Bybit, sometimes Gate.io or KuCoin, occasionally Binance or Huobi when liquidity allows.
• TRADING CAPITAL’s off-ramp wallet is then matched against compliance feeds the Professor maintains a standing read on.
• Leverage is applied to that named counterparty — the TRADING CAPITAL packet is assembled to a standard the off-ramp’s compliance desk reads and acts on.
• If the TRADING CAPITAL off-ramp is non-cooperative, the casefile escalates to IC3, the relevant state AG, and (where dollar value warrants) a civil-discovery overlay for KYC.

Pathway to recovery — what happens after the trail is mapped:

1. Triage on TRADING CAPITAL — submission read against a no-go checklist, written go/no-go returned to the claimant inside one business day.
2. Trace on TRADING CAPITAL — deposit pathway mapped across chains, captured with chain-of-custody hashes.
3. Identify on TRADING CAPITAL — off-ramp endpoint matched to a named exchange counterparty.
4. File the TRADING CAPITAL packet — IC3, state AG (where loss meets state thresholds), off-ramp compliance desk, and civil-discovery overlay where dollar value supports it.
5. Follow-through on TRADING CAPITAL — the Professor stays on the casefile until a documented next step exists.

What the casefile records — chains and counterparties:

• Chains the TRADING CAPITAL casefile may touch — Bitcoin and Ethereum at the deposit side, Tron USDT-TRC20 in stablecoin pathways, BNB Smart Chain and the L2s (Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Base) where bridges link them.
• Off-ramps relevant to TRADING CAPITAL — the major venues including OKX, Bybit, Binance and KuCoin, plus the regional venues operators rotate through under regulatory stress.
• Filings the TRADING CAPITAL packet supports — IC3, the appropriate state attorney general, the off-ramp’s compliance desk, and a civil-discovery overlay where dollar value justifies it.

Recovery scammers do these things; the Professor never does:

• On the TRADING CAPITAL casefile — never request a seed phrase. Ever.
• On the TRADING CAPITAL casefile — never request remote-access logins to a wallet or exchange.
• On the TRADING CAPITAL casefile — never demand an upfront cash retainer to scope the matter.
• On the TRADING CAPITAL casefile — never promise a guaranteed recovery. The trail does not promise one.
• On the TRADING CAPITAL casefile — never call the claimant unsolicited. Written-only.
