On-chain reading — wallet flow for QTrade:

• Deposit confirmations from the claimant to QTrade’s receiving wallet at qtrade.de.
• 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.

From the lectern — off-ramp identification:

• QTrade’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 QTrade off-ramp wallet against historical laundering throughput.
• The QTrade packet is delivered to the off-ramp compliance desk in a format the desk’s reviewers act on.
• Escalation pathways for QTrade, where needed: IC3, the relevant state AG, and a civil-discovery overlay for KYC on the off-ramp wallet.

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

1. Triage on QTrade — submission read against a no-go checklist, written go/no-go returned to the claimant inside one business day.
2. Trace on QTrade — deposit pathway mapped across chains, captured with chain-of-custody hashes.
3. Identify on QTrade — off-ramp endpoint matched to a named exchange counterparty.
4. File the QTrade packet — IC3, state AG (where loss meets state thresholds), off-ramp compliance desk, and civil-discovery overlay where dollar value supports it.
5. Follow-through on QTrade — the Professor stays on the casefile until a documented next step exists.

What the casefile records — chains and counterparties:

• Chains the QTrade 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 QTrade — the major venues including OKX, Bybit, Binance and KuCoin, plus the regional venues operators rotate through under regulatory stress.
• Filings the QTrade packet supports — IC3, the appropriate state attorney general, the off-ramp’s compliance desk, and a civil-discovery overlay where dollar value justifies it.

What the Professor will never do — by policy:

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