Trace summary, funds that left zodiacspeck.com:

• Deposit transaction hashes from the claimant wallet to the Zodiac Speck platform receiving address.
• Forwarding wallets the platform consolidated through, typically two to four hops on the deposit chain (BTC / ETH / USDT-TRC20 / BSC / Polygon / Arbitrum / Optimism / Avalanche).
• Bridge crossings between chains, where the operator moves value into a chain with deeper liquidity ahead of the off-ramp.
• Mixer interactions, Tornado-Cash variants, Sinbad, and the smaller obfuscation services that operators rotate through under regulatory pressure.
• Final off-ramp wallet, the centralised exchange deposit address that received the consolidated funds.

The Professor’s off-ramp note:

• Endpoint counterparty in the Zodiac Speck casefile is named, typically a major venue such as OKX or Bybit, sometimes Gate.io or KuCoin, occasionally Binance or Huobi when liquidity allows.
• Zodiac Speck’s off-ramp wallet is then matched against compliance feeds the Professor maintains a standing read on.
• Leverage is applied to that named counterparty, the Zodiac Speck packet is assembled to a standard the off-ramp’s compliance desk reads and acts on.
• If the Zodiac Speck off-ramp is non-cooperative, the casefile escalates to IC3, the relevant state AG, and (where dollar value warrants) a civil-discovery overlay for KYC.
