Exact Contract Deployment First Mint and Initial Distribution

The public Venus mainnet and VAI minting launch is fixed to 2020-11-24. The exact VAI contract-creation timestamp, first mint transaction, and initial distribution sequence are not normalized.

Low · last checked 2026-06-25

The unresolved deployment and first-mint details do not override the documented public mainnet launch boundary.

Current Mint and PSM Parameters

Current mint ceilings, stability-fee parameters, PSM reserves, and operational limits are governance-controlled and not snapshotted here.

Medium · last checked 2026-06-15

Requires periodic governance and onchain monitoring.
