Wallet trace — what the Professor maps:

• Initial deposit hashes to the Novazx receiving address at novazx.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 — Novazx casefile:

• Novazx casefiles end at a centralised exchange — Bybit, KuCoin, OKX, or Gate.io are common; the casefile names the actual deposit address that received the consolidated funds.
• Off-ramp wallet for Novazx is matched against compliance and chain-analytics datasets the Professor reads daily.
• Compliance leverage applied to the named off-ramp for Novazx — the packet is delivered in compliance-desk format.
• Non-cooperative off-ramps trigger IC3 + state-AG + civil-discovery escalation on the Novazx casefile.

Pathway to recovery — what happens after the trail is mapped:

1. Read the Novazx submission — written go/no-go returned.
2. Map the Novazx wallet trail — every hop captured with chain-of-custody hashes.
3. Name the Novazx off-ramp — endpoint counterparty identified.
4. Build and file the Novazx recovery packet — to IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, civil-discovery overlay.
5. Stay on the Novazx file — until written next steps exist.
