Wallet trace, what the Professor maps:

• Deposit confirmations from the claimant to TRMarkets’s receiving wallet at trmarkets.com.
• 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.

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

• TRMarkets off-ramps consistently to centralised exchanges, Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini appear less often than the offshore venues; the casefile names the actual endpoint.
• The TRMarkets off-ramp address is matched to known compliance feeds, the Professor’s standing dataset plus chain-analytics references.
• Compliance leverage is applied at the named counterparty for TRMarkets, the packet meets the off-ramp’s published compliance standard.
• When the TRMarkets off-ramp does not respond, escalation runs through IC3 (for US claimants), state AG, and (above a dollar threshold) civil-discovery overlay.

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

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

What the on-chain reading covers:

• Deposit-side chains in TRMarkets casefiles, typically the major chains (BTC, ETH) and the high-throughput stablecoin chains (Tron USDT, BSC USDT), with bridge crossings noted.
• Off-ramps named in TRMarkets packets, centralised exchanges that accept regulator-grade compliance filings.
• Filing options on TRMarkets, IC3 (US), state AG, off-ramp compliance desk, civil-discovery KYC where the dollar value warrants it.

Recovery scammers do these things; the Professor never does:

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