Circulating Supply Attestation

Current public attestation — not legal advice. Methodology and latest snapshot for self-reported circulating supply. Auditable on-chain by any third party. See DISCLAIMER.md.

CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, Trust Wallet, and CEX listing teams routinely cross-check a project's self-reported circulating supply against the on-chain reality. CMC explicitly acts against misleading supply data. This document defines the method HORMUZ uses, so any reviewer can re-derive the number on the same inputs.

Companion docs: TREASURY-DISTRIBUTION-POLICY.md, LIQUIDITY-OPERATIONS-POLICY.md, DEPLOYMENTS.md, LISTING-DATA-ROOM.md.

Gate: G0-C. Status: ATTESTED as of Base block 48584505.

1. Definitions

• Total supply = the totalSupply() view on the HORMUZ contract at the snapshot block.
• Excluded address = any wallet on the explicit list in §3 below. Each excluded address's balance is subtracted from total supply to compute circulating supply.
• Circulating supply = totalSupply() − Σ balances of excluded addresses, at the snapshot block.
• Snapshot block = a specific Base mainnet block number, recorded in the data room alongside the resulting circulating supply value.

Only addresses on the published exclusion list are subtracted. No off-chain exclusions, no hand-waved estimates, no rounded numbers.

2. Method

1. Pick a Base mainnet block number, ideally the head block at the time of attestation.
2. Read totalSupply() at that block from the HORMUZ contract.
3. For each address marked excluded in the balance-treatment list (§3), read its balanceOf at that block.
4. Compute circulating = totalSupply − Σ excluded balances.
5. Record (block, totalSupply, list of excluded balances, circulating) in LISTING-DATA-ROOM.md §6, with the BaseScan link to the contract page for that block.
6. Publish the same numbers at https://hormuz.meme/docs/circulating-supply-attestation.html.

The balance treatment changes only by documented change to this file (G0-C re-approval). The list is the authoritative source — nothing else.

3. Balance-treatment list (current)

At snapshot block 48584505, excluded balances are E1 998,499,900 plus E2 100, for an excluded total of 998,500,000 HORMUZ. The LP wallet and tokens committed to the live pool are included. Therefore:

1,000,000,000 − 998,499,900 − 100 = 1,500,000 HORMUZ circulating.

4. Re-verification recipe

A reviewer can independently verify this attestation at the exact snapshot block through the official Base mainnet JSON-RPC. Base block 48584505 is JSON-RPC block tag 0x2e55739. The public endpoint below requires no API key, but Base documents it as rate-limited and unsuitable for production traffic. This recipe intentionally does not use BaseScan's retired V1 endpoints. Etherscan/BaseScan V2 requests for Base (chainid=8453) require an Etherscan API key; no explorer API is needed for these direct RPC calls.

Read totalSupply():

Read the E1 treasury balanceOf(address):

Read the E2 deployer balanceOf(address):

These exact calls were re-run successfully against https://mainnet.base.org on 2026-07-14. Their ABI-encoded uint256 results decode to 1000000000000000000000000000, 998499900000000000000000000, and 100000000000000000000 raw units respectively. Divide each by 10^18, then subtract the two excluded balances: 1,000,000,000 − 998,499,900 − 100 = 1,500,000 HORMUZ.

A spreadsheet or scratch script that ingests total supply plus the E1 and E2 balances and subtracts both balances is sufficient. Any reviewer who arrives at a different number must reconcile against the exclusion list — there is no other source of truth.
