Wallet trace — what the Professor maps:

• Initial deposit hashes to the ACA Next receiving address at acanextmarket.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.

Off-ramp summary — ACA Next casefile:

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