From the marginalia — the deposit pathway:

• Claimant-to-platform deposit transactions on the deposit chain used by TRADEGAIA.
• Operator-controlled forwarding wallets where deposits consolidate ahead of laundering or off-ramping.
• Cross-chain bridge events to chains with deeper exchange liquidity.
• Privacy-service interactions, where present in the trail.
• Off-ramp wallet — the named centralised-exchange endpoint.

Off-ramp summary — TRADEGAIA casefile:

• Off-ramp endpoint for TRADEGAIA resolves to a named centralised counterparty — the venue varies casefile to casefile, but the resolution always names a real exchange wallet.
• TRADEGAIA’s off-ramp address is matched against the Professor’s compliance feed and against external chain-analytics datasets.
• The compliance packet for TRADEGAIA is structured the way an off-ramp compliance reviewer expects to receive evidence — header, hashes, narrative, ask.
• If the TRADEGAIA off-ramp counterparty does not respond inside the published window, escalation routes through IC3, state AG, and civil discovery.

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

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