Listing suspended on 2026-09-14

Offchain Labs, Inc. is the documented principal contributor and has SEC regulatory engagement, but neither its state of incorporation (Test 4) nor a physical US headquarters (Test 1) is established by a primary document or by two independent sources. Its terms of service give only a notice address at 377 Valley Rd, Unit #2644, Clifton, New Jersey (the same unit address it gives the Texas Comptroller) and Delaware governing law; its only New York record is a General Business Law 352-a designation that states no jurisdiction of formation; it has no EDGAR filings and no New York, Colorado, or Oregon corporate registration. Market data is withheld until verification meets the USCC evidence standard.
