Mog's launch day closed the contract controls; Joycat carried the rest

No publicly identified founder anchors Mog's history. The record starts with one deployer address and 2 ETH of liquidity. Sixty-eight minutes and 36 seconds after deployment, the deployer renounced the Ethereum token's ownership. The community then built an identity around Joycat and the verb ‘mog’, while liquidity and bridged tokens retained their own control arrangements.

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.

Launch fees fell before the deployer gave up ownership

At 03:44, trading opened with effective fees of 56% on buys, 32% on sells and 40% on ordinary transfers for non-exempt addresses. reduceFee at 03:45:11 lowered each rate to 4%; the second call at 03:45:59 repeated that setting. At 03:57, the deployer passed three zeros to setStructure, producing the 0% rates now advertised.

At 04:01, the deployer put the initial LP tokens into UNCX with September 2023 as the first unlock and itself as withdrawer. Limits disappeared at 04:04 and ownership was renounced at 04:15. Two days later the deployer extended lock ID 0 to 20 September 2092; the current UNCX page still marks it locked with the deployer as owner.

Renunciation froze settings but left a receiver in the plumbing

Owner-only methods once covered fee components, receivers, swap thresholds and limits. They are now unreachable through the renounced role, and the source contains no new mint, pause, blacklist or upgrade path. Ordinary MOG transfers therefore follow the launch-day final settings.

Two public sweep functions remain. Anyone can trigger them, but ETH or foreign tokens held by the contract go only to autoLiquidityReceiver, which began as the deployer. This is a residual destination rather than continuing authority to rewrite MOG balances. Separately, the paper reports circulating supply while the dated chain call reports totalSupply. Their roughly 2.633 billion MOG difference compares unlike measurements, not a demonstrated accounting failure.

A verb and an unbothered cat became the roadmap

Without named leadership or a formal roadmap, Mog's repeatable material became language and images. The project traces “mog” to AMOG and uses it for outperforming; Joycat turns that competitive verb into a smiling, unbothered character. mog.me and @mogpfp let participants remake the image rather than merely repost one mascot.

The site now lists separate Base, Solana and BNB identifiers. Base delegates mint and burn to StandardBridge. Solana's mint authority belongs to an upgradeable program, while the BNB OFT owner can change trusted peers and messaging settings. Because the advertised bridge host did not resolve during review, Ethereum's origin cannot establish one uniform, currently usable bridge system.

How the project changed

  1. 2023-07-20T03:06:47Z
    The contract appears

    The unnamed deployer created 420.69 trillion MOG and its Uniswap V2 pair.

  2. 2023-07-20T03:38:23Z
    Liquidity and trading begin

    Two ETH entered the pool; trading opened at 03:44 with 56% buy, 32% sell and 40% transfer fees, fell to 4%, and reached zero at 03:57.

  3. 2023-07-20T04:01:59Z
    The launch controls close

    The deployer put LP tokens in UNCX, removed limits, and renounced Ethereum ownership at 04:15.

  4. 2023-07-22T18:41:23Z
    The LP lock moves to 2092

    The deployer relocked UNCX lock ID 0 until 20 September 2092; UNCX still shows that date and owner.

Evidence and primary sources

Last evidence review: 2026-09-05

What is Mog Coin?

Mog Coin is an Ethereum meme token whose name turns the internet verb “mog”—to outdo someone—into a group identity. Its public site says it began among friends, has no formal team or roadmap, and exists for entertainment. It calls the Uniswap V2 route a fair launch, while the launch ledger shows 88% of supply entering the pool and the remaining 12% moving from the deployer to 11 addresses after trading opened. The people behind those addresses are not named.

Joycat images, mog.me and the @mogpfp bot give that identity reusable forms. The site also lists Ethereum, Base, Solana and BNB Chain tokens and advertises a bridge, although the linked bridge host did not resolve during this review. These representations do not share Ethereum MOG's exact control state.

What problem does Mog Coin solve?

MOG did not begin with a payments or computing problem. Its challenge was whether a fleeting piece of image-board slang could coordinate people after the launch excitement ended. The project answered by making “mog” a verb people could repeat and remix, then attaching the unbothered Joycat to it.

That makes participation the product: making profile pictures, jokes and slogans. The token supplies a common ticker and market, but the official disclaimer promises neither utility nor return. Its history is therefore measured by how the launch constrained the contract and how the culture kept reproducing itself.

How does Mog Coin work?

The Ethereum contract created 420,690,000,000,000 MOG with 18 decimals. The deployer paired 88% with 2 ETH. At 03:44 UTC, its 4% base fee was multiplied into 56% on buys, 32% on sells and 40% on ordinary transfers. The first reduceFee call cut each to 4%, the second repeated that state, and setStructure made all three zero at 03:57. During that interval the deployer sent twelve 1%-of-supply transfers to 11 addresses. Limits were removed and ownership was renounced soon afterward.

Anyone can trigger two sweep functions, but contract-held ETH or foreign tokens go only to a stored receiver that still equals the deployer. On Base, only the StandardBridge may mint or burn the listed representation. Solana's mint authority is held by a program-controlled account, and that program remains upgradeable by a named authority. The BNB LayerZero OFT owner can change trusted peers, its delegate, enforced options and message inspector. Ethereum's zero owner therefore describes only the Ethereum contract.

Key facts

  • The official account describes MOG as a meme born among friends; it names no human founder or formal team.
  • Ethereum contract 0xaaeE1A9723aaDB7afA2810263653A34bA2C21C7a was deployed at 03:06:47 UTC on 20 July 2023.
  • At 03:38:23 the deployer paired 370,207,200,000,000 MOG, exactly 88% of initial supply, with 2 ETH on Uniswap V2.
  • Trading opened at 03:44:11 with 56% buy, 32% sell and 40% ordinary-transfer fees. The first reduceFee call cut all three to 4% and the second repeated 4%; the deployer then sent twelve 1%-of-supply transfers to 11 addresses before fees became zero at 03:57:11.
  • The initial UNCX lock named the deployer as withdrawer and was later extended on 22 July 2023 to 20 September 2092 at 16:00 UTC. The current UNCX page still marks lock ID 0 as locked with that owner and date.
  • A live call on 5 September 2026 returned totalSupply 390,570,159,911,439.123354797210149241 MOG and a zero owner.
  • The paper reports 30,122,473,566,783.2942 MOG burned and 390,567,526,433,216.71 circulating. The latter is 2,633,478,222.413354797210149241 below the 5 September 2026 contract totalSupply reading, but the categories and observation dates are not aligned; this arithmetic alone does not establish an accounting error.
  • The site lists Base, Solana and BNB identifiers. Base mint/burn is confined to StandardBridge; Solana keeps a program-controlled mint authority and an upgrade authority; BNB keeps an owner able to change LayerZero routing settings. The advertised bridge host did not resolve during review.
  • Joycat, mog.me and @mogpfp are the project's repeatable cultural artifacts.

Frequently asked questions

Who created Mog Coin?

The official site says it was born among friends and has no formal team. Ethereum identifies deployer 0x20E12...Aa8B8, which supplied 88% to the pool and sent the remaining 12% to 11 addresses, but reviewed sources do not tie those addresses to named people.

Was MOG always a zero-tax token?

No. Non-exempt trades opened at 56% on buys, 32% on sells and 40% on ordinary transfers. One call cut those rates to 4%, another repeated 4%, and setStructure made them zero 13 minutes after trading began.

Can an owner change the Ethereum token now?

owner() returns the zero address after the launch-day renunciation. Former owner-only tax, limit and wallet settings can no longer be called through that role.

Why do supply figures differ?

The paper labels its number circulating supply, whereas the chain reading measures contract totalSupply at a specific date. The code reduces totalSupply for its fee-burn mechanism, but an ordinary transfer to a dead address does not itself reduce that variable. The reviewed material does not reconcile the paper’s burn scope and date with those mechanisms, so the numerical difference is not evidence of a same-scope ledger failure.

What does holding MOG provide?

It provides transferable token balances and participation in a meme culture. Formal voting, redemption, reserve and revenue rights are not documented.

Is MOG the same contract on every chain?

No. Base's token can be minted and burned only by StandardBridge. Solana retains a program-controlled mint authority and program upgrade authority. BNB's owner can change LayerZero peers and messaging settings. Ethereum's renunciation does not remove those controls.
