On-chain reading — wallet flow for FTMO:

• Claimant deposit hashes — provided in the case submission and verified against the public ledger for FTMO.
• Forwarding wallets on the deposit chain — each hop documented with the forwarding tx hash and the consolidating wallet.
• Bridge events into chains where the operator can off-ramp at scale.
• Mixer or privacy-service interactions, where present, listed with the contract address and the deposit/withdraw side.
• Off-ramp endpoint — the centralised exchange deposit address holding the compliance lever.

The annotation continues — off-ramp endpoint:

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

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

1. Casefile review on FTMO — reading the submission against the no-go list.
2. Trace mapping on FTMO — pathway documented to chain-of-custody standard.
3. Off-ramp naming on FTMO — exchange endpoint identified.
4. Packet filing on FTMO — to the named off-ramp, IC3, state AG; civil discovery overlay as applicable.
5. Documented follow-through on FTMO.

What the Professor tracks across FTMO casefiles:

• Chains tracked on FTMO — Bitcoin and Ethereum at the deposit side; Tron USDT-TRC20 and BSC at the consolidation side; bridges crossed where the operator chases liquidity.
• Off-ramps tracked on FTMO — named exchange counterparties with public compliance contacts.
• Filings supported on FTMO — IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, civil discovery — selected by the dollar value and the off-ramp’s responsiveness.
