UncertaintyKnown unknowns2
Exact Terminal Date
The original BAC launch is fixed to 2020-11-30 and V2 activation to 2021-04-26, but no definitive shutdown, final mint stop, governance termination, or contract end date is established.
High · last checked 2026-06-24BAC remains classified failed without inventing an end date. Continuing ERC-20 transferability is separate from protocol relevance.
Bab Bas Terminal and Contract History
Complete contract and terminal histories for BAB and BAS are outside this canonical stablecoin record.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-24BAB, BAS V1, BAS V2, boardroom, treasury, vault, oracle, and liquidity-migration contracts require a separate lineage normalization pass.
