Wallet trace — what the Professor maps:

• Initial deposit hashes to the FTMX Global receiving address at ftmxglobal.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:

• FTMX Global off-ramps consistently to centralised exchanges — Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini appear less often than the offshore venues; the casefile names the actual endpoint.
• The FTMX Global off-ramp address is matched to known compliance feeds — the Professor’s standing dataset plus chain-analytics references.
• Compliance leverage is applied at the named counterparty for FTMX Global — the packet meets the off-ramp’s published compliance standard.
• When the FTMX Global off-ramp does not respond, escalation runs through IC3 (for US claimants), state AG, and (above a dollar threshold) civil-discovery overlay.
