• Deposit-side hashes from claimant wallets into Fake Trade Nation’s receiving addresses.

• Inter-chain bridge transactions when value moves toward off-ramp liquidity.
• Mixer/obfuscation events the operator routed through, where present.
• Final off-ramp endpoint and named counterparty exchange.

From the lectern — off-ramp identification:

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