Wallet trace — what the Professor maps:

• Deposit confirmations from the claimant to Investmentco’s receiving wallet at investmentco.live.
• Forwarding-wallet pathway documented hop-by-hop with chain-of-custody hashes.
• Cross-chain bridge transactions where the operator routed value out of the deposit chain.
• Mixer or coin-join interactions, where applicable.
• Final off-ramp at a centralised exchange — the compliance counterparty named in the recovery filing.

The Professor’s off-ramp note:

• Off-ramp endpoint for Investmentco resolves to a named centralised counterparty — the venue varies casefile to casefile, but the resolution always names a real exchange wallet.
• Investmentco’s off-ramp address is matched against the Professor’s compliance feed and against external chain-analytics datasets.
• The compliance packet for Investmentco is structured the way an off-ramp compliance reviewer expects to receive evidence — header, hashes, narrative, ask.
• If the Investmentco off-ramp counterparty does not respond inside the published window, escalation routes through IC3, state AG, and civil discovery.

Recovery sequence — from on-chain reading to filed packet:

1. Casefile triage on Investmentco — the submission is read; a written assessment is delivered.
2. Forensic trace on Investmentco — every hop in the deposit pathway is captured and hashed.
3. Off-ramp identification — the Investmentco endpoint is named.
4. Recovery filing on Investmentco — packet delivered to IC3, state AG, off-ramp compliance, and civil discovery as applicable.
5. Continuing review of Investmentco — the Professor follows the casefile until next-step documentation exists.

What the Professor tracks across Investmentco casefiles:

• Deposit + forwarding chains for Investmentco — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tron USDT-TRC20, plus the smart-contract chains (BSC, Polygon, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Optimism) that cross via bridges.

Lines we never cross — by published policy:

• On the Investmentco casefile — never request a seed phrase. Ever.
• On the Investmentco casefile — never request remote-access logins to a wallet or exchange.
• On the Investmentco casefile — never demand an upfront cash retainer to scope the matter.
• On the Investmentco casefile — never promise a guaranteed recovery. The trail does not promise one.
• On the Investmentco casefile — never call the claimant unsolicited. Written-only.
