Wallet trace — what the Professor maps:

• Deposit transaction hashes from the claimant wallet to the RV Markets platform receiving address.
• Forwarding wallets the platform consolidated through — typically two to four hops on the deposit chain (BTC / ETH / USDT-TRC20 / BSC / Polygon / Arbitrum / Optimism / Avalanche).
• Bridge crossings between chains, where the operator moves value into a chain with deeper liquidity ahead of the off-ramp.
• Mixer interactions — Tornado-Cash variants, Sinbad, and the smaller obfuscation services that operators rotate through under regulatory pressure.
• Final off-ramp wallet — the centralised exchange deposit address that received the consolidated funds.

Off-ramp reading — exchange counterparty for RV Markets:

• RV Markets off-ramps consistently to centralised exchanges — Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini appear less often than the offshore venues; the casefile names the actual endpoint.
• The RV Markets off-ramp address is matched to known compliance feeds — the Professor’s standing dataset plus chain-analytics references.
• Compliance leverage is applied at the named counterparty for RV Markets — the packet meets the off-ramp’s published compliance standard.
• When the RV Markets off-ramp does not respond, escalation runs through IC3 (for US claimants), state AG, and (above a dollar threshold) civil-discovery overlay.

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

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

What the casefile records — chains and counterparties:

• Chains the Professor reads for RV Markets casefiles — BTC, ETH, Tron USDT, BNB Smart Chain, Avalanche, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, plus the cross-chain bridges that link them.
• Off-ramps named in RV Markets — major centralised venues with compliance desks that accept regulator-grade packets.
• Filing pathways available on RV Markets — IC3 for US claimants, state AG offices, off-ramp compliance, and civil-discovery overlay for high-value loss.
