Reading the wallets — Cointradex casefile:

• Deposit transaction hashes from the claimant wallet to the Cointradex platform receiving address.
• Forwarding wallets the platform consolidated through — typically two to four hops on the deposit chain (BTC / ETH / USDT-TRC20 / BSC / Polygon / Arbitrum / Optimism / Avalanche).
• Bridge crossings between chains, where the operator moves value into a chain with deeper liquidity ahead of the off-ramp.
• Mixer interactions — Tornado-Cash variants, Sinbad, and the smaller obfuscation services that operators rotate through under regulatory pressure.
• Final off-ramp wallet — the centralised exchange deposit address that received the consolidated funds.

Off-ramp map — where the funds left the chain:

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

Recovery pathway — how this casefile moves toward filing:

1. Submission triage — Cointradex casefile reviewed against the no-go list, written reply within one business day.
2. Pathway trace — Cointradex deposit and forwarding wallets captured.
3. Endpoint identification — Cointradex off-ramp wallet named.
4. Filing — Cointradex packet delivered to IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, civil discovery as needed.
5. Ongoing follow — Cointradex stays on file until a documented next step is reached.

What the Professor tracks across Cointradex casefiles:
