  • Reading the Chain: FTX

    FROM THE CASEFILE, FTX

    The Professor opens the file on FTX the same way every casefile is opened, by treating the wallet history as text and the off-ramp endpoint as the citation a regulator can verify.

    On-chain reading, wallet flow for FTX:

    • Claimant deposit hashes, provided in the case submission and verified against the public ledger for FTX.
    • Forwarding wallets on the deposit chain, each hop documented with the forwarding tx hash and the consolidating wallet.
    • Bridge events into chains where the operator can off-ramp at scale.
    • Mixer or privacy-service interactions, where present, listed with the contract address and the deposit/withdraw side.
    • Off-ramp endpoint, the centralised exchange deposit address holding the compliance lever.

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

    • Endpoint counterparty in the FTX casefile is named, typically a major venue such as OKX or Bybit, sometimes Gate.io or KuCoin, occasionally Binance or Huobi when liquidity allows.
    • FTX’s off-ramp wallet is then matched against compliance feeds the Professor maintains a standing read on.
    • Leverage is applied to that named counterparty, the FTX packet is assembled to a standard the off-ramp’s compliance desk reads and acts on.
    • If the FTX off-ramp is non-cooperative, the casefile escalates to IC3, the relevant state AG, and (where dollar value warrants) a civil-discovery overlay for KYC.

    How a FTX casefile becomes a evidence filing:

    1. Read the FTX submission, written go/no-go returned.
    2. Map the FTX wallet trail, every hop captured with chain of custody hashes.
    3. Name the FTX off-ramp, endpoint counterparty identified.
    4. Build and file the FTX recovery packet, to IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, civil-discovery overlay.
    5. Stay on the FTX file, until written next steps exist.

    What the on-chain reading covers:

    • Chains tracked on FTX, Bitcoin and Ethereum at the deposit side; Tron USDT-TRC20 and BSC at the consolidation side; bridges crossed where the operator chases liquidity.
    • Off-ramps tracked on FTX, named exchange counterparties with public compliance contacts.
    • Filings supported on FTX, IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, civil discovery, selected by the dollar value and the off-ramp’s responsiveness.
