From the marginalia — the deposit pathway:

• Deposit confirmations from the claimant to CTmatador’s receiving wallet at ctmatador.com.
• 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:

• CTmatador off-ramps consistently to centralised exchanges — Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini appear less often than the offshore venues; the casefile names the actual endpoint.
• The CTmatador off-ramp address is matched to known compliance feeds — the Professor’s standing dataset plus chain-analytics references.
• Compliance leverage is applied at the named counterparty for CTmatador — the packet meets the off-ramp’s published compliance standard.
• When the CTmatador off-ramp does not respond, escalation runs through IC3 (for US claimants), state AG, and (above a dollar threshold) civil-discovery overlay.

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

1. Submission triage — CTmatador casefile reviewed against the no-go list, written reply within one business day.
2. Pathway trace — CTmatador deposit and forwarding wallets captured.
3. Endpoint identification — CTmatador off-ramp wallet named.
4. Filing — CTmatador packet delivered to IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, civil discovery as needed.
5. Ongoing follow — CTmatador stays on file until a documented next step is reached.

What we read in a CTmatador casefile:

• Chains the Professor reads for CTmatador casefiles — BTC, ETH, Tron USDT, BNB Smart Chain, Avalanche, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, plus the cross-chain bridges that link them.
• Off-ramps named in CTmatador — major centralised venues with compliance desks that accept regulator-grade packets.
• Filing pathways available on CTmatador — IC3 for US claimants, state AG offices, off-ramp compliance, and civil-discovery overlay for high-value loss.
