A joke among friends reached Ethereum without their names
The official account says Mog was born as a meme among friends. It does not identify them, and “no formal team” is not proof that nobody maintains the site, bridge or media accounts. The durable identity begins instead at 03:06:47 UTC on 20 July 2023, when 0x20E12...Aa8B8 deployed the Ethereum contract.
The contract minted 420.69 trillion MOG to the deployer. Thirty-two minutes later, 88% of that supply and 2 ETH entered Uniswap V2. After trading opened, the deployer sent the remaining 12% in twelve equal transfers to 11 addresses. “Fair launch” is therefore the project’s description of the public-pool route, not evidence that all supply began under identical access.
