Wallet trace — what the Professor maps:

• Claimant deposit hashes — provided in the case submission and verified against the public ledger for MSG.
• 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 — MSG casefile:

• MSG’s off-ramp endpoint, in this casefile, is the centralised exchange that holds compliance leverage — typically named in the packet alongside the deposit address.
• Chain-analytics datasets cross-reference the MSG off-ramp wallet against historical laundering throughput.
• The MSG packet is delivered to the off-ramp compliance desk in a format the desk’s reviewers act on.
• Escalation pathways for MSG, where needed: IC3, the relevant state AG, and a civil-discovery overlay for KYC on the off-ramp wallet.

The Professor’s recovery note for MSG:

1. Triage on MSG — submission read against a no-go checklist, written go/no-go returned to the claimant inside one business day.
2. Trace on MSG — deposit pathway mapped across chains, captured with chain-of-custody hashes.
3. Identify on MSG — off-ramp endpoint matched to a named exchange counterparty.
4. File the MSG 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 MSG — the Professor stays on the casefile until a documented next step exists.

What the casefile records — chains and counterparties:

• Chains tracked on MSG — Bitcoin and Ethereum at the deposit side; Tron USDT-TRC20 and BSC at the consolidation side; bridges crossed where the operator chases liquidity.
• Off-ramps tracked on MSG — named exchange counterparties with public compliance contacts.
• Filings supported on MSG — IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, civil discovery — selected by the dollar value and the off-ramp’s responsiveness.
