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 2026-06-24

BAC 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 2026-06-24

BAB, BAS V1, BAS V2, boardroom, treasury, vault, oracle, and liquidity-migration contracts require a separate lineage normalization pass.
