Ticker

WHY

146 launches on Solana carried this ticker, from 127 different creator wallets. The first was 2 September 2026 and the most recent 10 November 2026. Each was recorded at the moment it was created, with the files it launched with, fingerprinted at capture.

20 of these launches declared a launch document byte-identical to another launch's: one file carrying the name, ticker, description and links, matching hash for hash. 56 were created with a picture that some other launch in the archive also used: the same file, byte for byte, not merely a similar image. A matching fingerprint establishes that the same file was used and nothing about who used it.

What each launch called itself, as it published it at creation.

Any single launch's record is free to read. These are the ones most often asked for: the first, the most recent, and the latest to complete a bonding curve. Each opens the full record of that one launch as it was captured at creation.

We hold every one of these 146 launches with its mint address, its creator wallet, the share of supply taken in the first block, and the fingerprint and capture time of the document and artwork it launched with. Every figure cites the transaction it was read from. Any one of them can be kept as a frozen, citable document for $49, bought from that launch's own page.

Brand Protection puts a standing watch on a ticker: when a new launch anywhere on the venues we record uses the ticker WHY, we tell you, with the launch's own files attached. The last one was 10 November 2026.

Brand Protection, $79 a month, includes 25 watches. Watches can be set on a ticker, a name, a creator wallet or a picture.

This register records what it observed and does not call these launches related, coordinated or wrongful, and does not rank them or say that any one of them has a better claim to the ticker than another. A ticker or a name is not property and reusing one is not an accusation: popular subjects produce many honest collisions, and most repeated names are ordinary words. What is established here is the count, the wallet that signed each creation, and the files each launch carried. The method is published and our corrections are on the record.
