Bnb Contract First Mint and Final Lifecycle

The original BSC public launch is fixed to 2021-03-06, but the complete BSC contract identity, exact first mint, supply history, and final deployment lifecycle are not normalized.

Medium · last checked 2026-06-25

Do not copy Polygon contract identity or collapse metrics onto the BSC deployment.

Residual Contract and Liquidity State

Residual balances, pools, redemption functions, and later reuse of Iron Finance contracts were not exhaustively reviewed.

Medium · last checked 2026-06-14

Residual contract activity does not constitute recovery of the original stablecoin.

V1 V2 Token and Liability Continuity

Iron Finance launched a redesigned IRON v2 in August 2021 after stating that the stablecoin would be rebuilt from scratch. Token-contract continuity, holder migration, liability continuity, and the final v2 lifecycle are not normalized.

High · last checked 2026-06-25

Do not treat the v2 launch as recovery of the original failed BSC or Polygon deployment without separate evidence.
