From the marginalia, the deposit pathway:

• Deposit confirmations from the claimant to Ascuex’s receiving wallet at ascuex.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.

From the lectern, off-ramp identification:

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