• Obfuscation events through mixer contracts and privacy services.
• Centralised-exchange off-ramp wallets — the named counterparty that holds compliance leverage.

The Professor’s off-ramp note:

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