From the marginalia, the deposit pathway:

• Deposit confirmations from the claimant to DS Financial’s receiving wallet at dsfinancial.net.
• Forwarding-wallet pathway documented hop-by-hop with chain of custody hashes.
• Cross-chain bridge transactions where the operator routed value out of the deposit chain.
• Mixer or coin-join interactions, where applicable.
• Final off-ramp at a centralised exchange, the compliance counterparty named in the recovery filing.

Recovery pathway, how this casefile moves toward filing:

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