Uncertainty

Known unknowns

Reviewed gaps remain visible instead of being converted into false certainty.

exact_public_launch_date

The official Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain deployments are fixed to 2025-01-28, the first-party introduction to 2025-03-25, and the airdrop testing proposal to 2025-04-07. First-party retrospective evidence supports April 2025 only at month level, while the exact first issuance and broader public-access day remain unresolved.

Keep launch_date null. Do not substitute contract creation, planned-launch announcement, testing, or a later exchange listing for the original public boundary.

reserve_component_percentages

The permitted reserve categories are public, but a normalized current percentage allocation by category is not fixed in this record.

Severity
Medium

Use monthly attestations for future component-level percentages.
