From the marginalia, the deposit pathway:

• Initial deposit hashes to the Finnex Markets receiving address at finnexmarkets.com.
• Hop-by-hop forwarding wallets across the deposit chain, captured with chain of custody hashes.
• Cross-chain bridge events that move value into the chain where liquidity supports the eventual off-ramp.
• Obfuscation events through mixer contracts and privacy services.
• Centralised-exchange off-ramp wallets, the named counterparty that holds compliance leverage.

Recovery sequence, from on-chain reading to filed packet:

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

Chains and off-ramps the Professor follows:

• Deposit + forwarding chains for Finnex Markets, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tron USDT-TRC20, plus the smart-contract chains (BSC, Polygon, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Optimism) that cross via bridges.
• Off-ramps the Finnex Markets casefile may resolve to, centralised exchanges that respond to compliance filings.
• Filing pathways on Finnex Markets, IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, and civil-discovery overlay.
