Wallet trace, what the Professor maps:

• Claimant-to-platform deposit transactions on the deposit chain used by Hive Markets.
• Operator-controlled forwarding wallets where deposits consolidate ahead of laundering or off-ramping.
• Cross-chain bridge events to chains with deeper exchange liquidity.
• Privacy-service interactions, where present in the trail.
• Off-ramp wallet, the named centralised-exchange endpoint.

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

• Endpoint counterparty in the Hive Markets casefile is named, typically a major venue such as OKX or Bybit, sometimes Gate.io or KuCoin, occasionally Binance or Huobi when liquidity allows.
• Hive Markets’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 Hive Markets packet is assembled to a standard the off-ramp’s compliance desk reads and acts on.
• If the Hive Markets 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.
