Official statement · dated April 19, 2026

BenchAGI has not launched a public token.

If you have seen a "$BENCH" or "BenchAGI" token on any exchange, DEX, wallet, messaging app, or social platform, it is not issued by us. This page is the authoritative public statement of our token posture as of April 19, 2026.

What is not happening

No public token. No token sale. No ICO, IDO, IEO, presale, or airdrop. No staking program. No yield program. No mainnet deployment. No custodial wallet.

What this page is for

A dated public record so any future impersonation attempt can be measured against a prior authoritative statement from BenchAGI.

Fraud indicators

Treat any of the following as fraudulent.

This list is not exhaustive. If a claim is BenchAGI-branded and involves a token, a wallet, or a payment in crypto, it is not us unless it is published here first.

Any token sale, ICO, IDO, IEO, presale, or airdrop advertised as BENCH or BenchAGI.

Any DM, email, post, or group message asking you to send crypto to receive BENCH tokens.

Any trading pair, DEX pool, or CEX listing for a "$BENCH" or "BenchAGI" token.

Any claim of guaranteed yield, staking rewards, or passive income tied to a BenchAGI token.

Any website, social handle, or app impersonating BenchAGI branding to solicit wallets or seed phrases.

Any "official" BenchAGI wallet, extension, or bot asking for your private key or signature to "verify" a token balance.

Our commitments

What we will and will not do.

We will never ask you to send cryptocurrency to receive a BenchAGI token.

We will never DM, cold-call, or email you to buy a BenchAGI token.

Any future token decision requires: co-founder sign-off, independent legal review, an independent security audit, and multisig governance.

Any future on-chain deployment will be announced in advance on this website and signed with a dated update to this page.

Our public token architecture work to date remains testnet-scoped (Base Sepolia) for engineering validation only — no mainnet configuration is present.

Our architecture and posture are published in the Bench Whitepaper and the Bench Blockchain overview. Both pages describe testnet-scoped architecture work. Neither page is, nor should be read as, an offer, solicitation, or announcement of a public token.

Official channels
