Reading the wallets — TopShark casefile:

• Deposit confirmations from the claimant to TopShark’s receiving wallet at topshark.co.
• 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.

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

• On the TopShark 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 TopShark is run against chain-analytics datasets and the Professor’s own compliance feeds.
• A regulator-ready packet is delivered to the named counterparty — the TopShark casefile is built to the off-ramp’s compliance standard.
• Where the off-ramp will not engage, TopShark escalates to IC3, state AG, and civil-discovery overlay.

What we read in a TopShark casefile:

• Deposit-side chains in TopShark casefiles — typically the major chains (BTC, ETH) and the high-throughput stablecoin chains (Tron USDT, BSC USDT) — with bridge crossings noted.
• Off-ramps named in TopShark packets — centralised exchanges that accept regulator-grade compliance filings.
• Filing options on TopShark — IC3 (US), state AG, off-ramp compliance desk, civil-discovery KYC where the dollar value warrants it.
