Wallet trace, what the Professor maps:

• Claimant deposit hashes, provided in the case submission and verified against the public ledger for Topfin.
• Forwarding wallets on the deposit chain, each hop documented with the forwarding tx hash and the consolidating wallet.
• Bridge events into chains where the operator can off-ramp at scale.
• Mixer or privacy-service interactions, where present, listed with the contract address and the deposit/withdraw side.
• Off-ramp endpoint, the centralised exchange deposit address holding the compliance lever.

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

• Topfin casefiles end at a centralised exchange, Bybit, KuCoin, OKX, or Gate.io are common; the casefile names the actual deposit address that received the consolidated funds.
• Off-ramp wallet for Topfin is matched against compliance and chain-analytics datasets the Professor reads daily.
• Compliance leverage applied to the named off-ramp for Topfin, the packet is delivered in compliance-desk format.
• Non-cooperative off-ramps trigger IC3 + state-AG + civil-discovery escalation on the Topfin casefile.
