From the marginalia, the deposit pathway:

• Initial deposit hashes to the Finnova receiving address at finnova-limited.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.

Off-ramp summary, Finnova casefile:

• Finnova casefiles end at a centralised exchange, Bybit, KuCoin, OKX, or Gate.io are common; the casefile names the actual deposit address that received the consolidated funds.
• Off-ramp wallet for Finnova is matched against compliance and chain-analytics datasets the Professor reads daily.
• Compliance leverage applied to the named off-ramp for Finnova, the packet is delivered in compliance-desk format.
• Non-cooperative off-ramps trigger IC3 + state-AG + civil-discovery escalation on the Finnova casefile.
