From the marginalia — the deposit pathway:

• Deposit-side hashes from claimant wallets into Bit Markets’s receiving addresses.
• Operator forwarding wallets — deposit consolidation documented to chain-of-custody standards.
• Inter-chain bridge transactions when value moves toward off-ramp liquidity.
• Mixer/obfuscation events the operator routed through, where present.
• Final off-ramp endpoint and named counterparty exchange.

Off-ramp summary — Bit Markets casefile:

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

Filing pathway — the next step after the off-ramp is identified:
