From the marginalia, the deposit pathway:

• Claimant-to-platform deposit transactions on the deposit chain used by IKOFX.
• 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.

The annotation continues, off-ramp endpoint:

• IKOFX’s off-ramp endpoint, in this casefile, is the centralised exchange that holds compliance leverage, typically named in the packet alongside the deposit address.
• Chain-analytics datasets cross-reference the IKOFX off-ramp wallet against historical laundering throughput.
• The IKOFX packet is delivered to the off-ramp compliance desk in a format the desk’s reviewers act on.
• Escalation pathways for IKOFX, where needed: IC3, the relevant state AG, and a civil-discovery overlay for KYC on the off-ramp wallet.

What we read in a IKOFX casefile:

• Chains the IKOFX casefile may touch, Bitcoin and Ethereum at the deposit side, Tron USDT-TRC20 in stablecoin pathways, BNB Smart Chain and the L2s (Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Base) where bridges link them.
• Off-ramps relevant to IKOFX, the major venues including OKX, Bybit, Binance and KuCoin, plus the regional venues operators rotate through under regulatory stress.
• Filings the IKOFX packet supports, IC3, the appropriate state attorney general, the off-ramp’s compliance desk, and a civil-discovery overlay where dollar value justifies it.
