The annotation reads — wallet trace:

• Deposit transaction hashes from the claimant wallet to the Des Trading platform receiving address.
• Forwarding wallets the platform consolidated through — typically two to four hops on the deposit chain (BTC / ETH / USDT-TRC20 / BSC / Polygon / Arbitrum / Optimism / Avalanche).
• Bridge crossings between chains, where the operator moves value into a chain with deeper liquidity ahead of the off-ramp.
• Mixer interactions — Tornado-Cash variants, Sinbad, and the smaller obfuscation services that operators rotate through under regulatory pressure.
• Final off-ramp wallet — the centralised exchange deposit address that received the consolidated funds.
