UncertaintyKnown unknowns10
Redemption Deadline
Final BUSD redemption window, customer-specific Paxos redemption/conversion eligibility, and post-wind-down handling need exact source-backed review before SOG displays final availability as fact.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-04PR-024B added current Paxos redemption/conversion context but keeps final customer-specific terms as source-review needed.
Exchange Phaseout Scope
Exchange support phase-out, automatic conversion programs, and remaining market support vary by platform and should not be confused with issuer redemption.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-04PR-024B keeps Binance support phase-out context separate from Paxos issuer wind-down and redemption/conversion terms.
Regulatory Followup
NYDFS/SEC-related BUSD follow-up needs source-specific separation between official notices, company statements, and later news reports.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-04Reuters 2024 SEC investigation outcome is included as news context only unless official source is added later.
Deployment and Report History
PYUSD chain-specific deployment status, monthly reserve report history, and PayPal/Paxos responsibility split need deeper source-backed review.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-02Keep visible until exact Paxos report history and deployment documentation are reviewed.
Reserve Report History
USDP reserve report archive entries need period-level report rows before SOG displays a historical reserve timeline.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-05PR-028C added Paxos transparency entry point but not exact monthly report rows.
Redemption Terms
USDP direct redemption eligibility, customer onboarding, jurisdiction, minimum amounts, and current Paxos terms need source-specific extraction before final redemption availability is displayed.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-05Keep Paxos issuer redemption separate from exchange liquidity and secondary-market trading.
Solana Deployment Status
USDP Solana token status, issuer support level, and exact lifecycle context should be reviewed against Paxos sources and explorer data before being treated as final chain coverage.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-05PR-028C added Solscan reference because Paxos links to a Solana token page.
Paypal Paxos Roles
PYUSD PayPal app access, Paxos issuer role, reserve reports, and chain-specific support should be kept as separate source-backed layers.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-07PR-033 known unknown.
Physical Redemption Terms
Current customer-specific bar, unallocated-gold, delivery, fee, and quantity requirements must be checked at redemption time.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-14General guidance does not establish individual eligibility.
Additional Deployments
Paxos identifies Solana support, but the canonical token identifier and lifecycle status are not yet normalized.
Medium · last checked 2026-06-14Do not infer identifiers from third-party lists.
