Off-ramp reading, exchange counterparty for FT Markets:

• Endpoint counterparty in the FT Markets casefile is named, typically a major venue such as OKX or Bybit, sometimes Gate.io or KuCoin, occasionally Binance or Huobi when liquidity allows.
• FT Markets’s off-ramp wallet is then matched against compliance feeds the Professor maintains a standing read on.
• Leverage is applied to that named counterparty, the FT Markets packet is assembled to a standard the off-ramp’s compliance desk reads and acts on.
• If the FT Markets off-ramp is non-cooperative, the casefile escalates to IC3, the relevant state AG, and (where dollar value warrants) a civil-discovery overlay for KYC.
