The annotation reads — wallet trace:

• Initial deposit hashes to the Cardiff Markets receiving address at cardiff-markets.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.

The annotation continues — off-ramp endpoint:

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