Trace summary — funds that left tradefx.co:

• Initial deposit hashes to the TradeFX receiving address at tradefx.co.
• Hop-by-hop forwarding wallets across the deposit chain, captured with chain-of-custody hashes.
• Cross-chain bridge events that move value into the chain where liquidity supports the eventual off-ramp.
• Obfuscation events through mixer contracts and privacy services.
• Centralised-exchange off-ramp wallets — the named counterparty that holds compliance leverage.

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

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

Pathway to recovery — what happens after the trail is mapped:

1. Triage on TradeFX — submission read against a no-go checklist, written go/no-go returned to the claimant inside one business day.
2. Trace on TradeFX — deposit pathway mapped across chains, captured with chain-of-custody hashes.
3. Identify on TradeFX — off-ramp endpoint matched to a named exchange counterparty.
4. File the TradeFX 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 TradeFX — the Professor stays on the casefile until a documented next step exists.
