What We Shipped, Week by Week

Note, August 2026: JuniorShot still runs as a free points demo. Points have no cash value, cannot be purchased, and are not redeemable for any token or asset. No real money venue is operating and no licence has been obtained.

The complete product interface is live at JuniorShot as a working demo. The daily round runs on live Bitcoin prices, the markets browser is populated, the app screens (claim, stake, positions, history, boosters) all work, the fairness dashboard is published, agent slots let you spin up a strategy, and the market creation wizard is walkable end to end. Every balance in the demo is simulated and clearly labeled as such.

How we are building: the product demo complete end to end first, so the community and investors can walk the real product while the contracts go through the CertiK process for TGE. Building in the open as always, one shipped screen at a time, no mockups pretending to be product.

What to do: take the tour at juniorshot.xyz, play a few practice rounds, click every button. If something feels wrong or unclear, tell us at info@jbtc.world. We read every message.

Note, August 2026: the CertiK assessment of the BEP-20 contract on BNB Chain is still in progress and the final report is not published.

CertiK's preliminary report on the JBTC contract is in. Twenty findings were raised across the review, and zero of them are critical. Eight are already resolved, six are acknowledged or partially resolved, and six are in active remediation. In plain words: the code does what it says, the issues flagged are the kind you fix in review rather than rebuild around, and the majority are already behind us.

From here we review each remaining item with the CertiK reviewers, ship the remediation, and re-submit. The final report publishes on Transparency the day it completes, in full, with no summaries or excerpts before then. The trust badge sitewide stays on "CertiK Assessment In Progress" until that final report is public.

Note, August 2026: the assessment is still in progress and the final report is not published. The bug bounty and on-chain contract verification have not gone live.

We've engaged CertiK for the full security program, not a one-time audit. Five pieces, each independently verifiable on CertiK's own platform: a smart contract assessment, team KYC verification, contract verification, a public bug bounty on CertiK SkyShield, and a continuously updated Skynet security score. Every one of them links to a CertiK-hosted page the moment it lands. Nothing here is claimed without a place you can go to check.

We chose the full program over a single audit because a static PDF ages the moment the ink dries. A live score, a public bounty, and verified identities keep the pressure on us continuously and give you something to look at that isn't a screenshot on our own site. That's the standard we want to be held to.

Timing: the assessment is underway now, team KYC is in progress, and both the bug bounty on SkyShield and the on-chain contract verification go live at deployment. The full report publishes here on the day the assessment completes. No summaries, no excerpts before that.

Note, August 2026: the launch chain is BNB Chain/Hemi. TGE has not happened and no public stage is open for new purchases. The original note below is kept for the record.

We are evaluating Hemi, an EVM-compatible Bitcoin programmability layer whose Proof-of-Proof consensus anchors its state down to Bitcoin. For a project literally named Junior Bitcoin, Bitcoin alignment is attractive. This is our evaluation, not a partnership or endorsement.

For holders and presale buyers, nothing changes. Same 21,000,000 hard cap, same 95.24% vault, same once-a-day claim, same claim ceiling (a ceiling, not a yield), same intended purchase loop, same immutable no-admin-keys design. Stage 1 and Stage 2 buyers still convert 1:1 to JBTC at TGE on BNB Chain/Hemi, automatically and free. If you already bought, do nothing.

Next: CertiK audit publication, contract deployment, then a TGE window. The wallets you already use (MetaMask, Trust Wallet, WalletConnect, Coinbase Wallet) work the same on any EVM chain, so nothing changes on your end.

Note, August 2026: JBTC is a BEP-20 token on BNB Chain today and launches on BNB Chain/Hemi. Stage 1 completed and no public stage is open for new purchases.

We are reviewing the launch network. One option is Hemi, an EVM Layer 2 that anchors to Bitcoin through Proof-of-Proof.

The reason is simple: investor and community feedback favored Bitcoin alignment for a project literally named Junior Bitcoin, and the more we heard it, the more obviously right it sounded. Our contract is EVM, so the code under CertiK assessment carries over intact. The wallets you already use (MetaMask, Trust Wallet, WalletConnect, Coinbase Wallet) work the same on any EVM chain, so nothing changes on your end.

What does not change: the 21,000,000 hard cap, the 95.24% vault, the once-a-day claim, the claim ceiling (a ceiling, not a yield), the intended purchase loop, the immutable no-admin-keys design, and every presale term. Stage 1 and Stage 2 buyers still convert 1:1 to JBTC at launch on BNB Chain/Hemi, automatically and free. If you already bought, do nothing.

Note, August 2026: no public stage is open for new purchases. The reward vault, the daily claim and any open market purchases are not running. They activate at TGE, which has not happened.

This is the first Friday ship note on the new site. We rebuilt jbtc.world from scratch against a single rule: every claim carries a number or a link, or it doesn't go on the page. If you spot a line that doesn't, mail us.

Alongside the site, the practice JuniorShot widget is live on /juniorshot: a 60-second round on real BTC prices, no wallet, no signup. That is the shape of the daily habit we're building toward at TGE.

Next week: audit-report ingestion into /transparency, Season 0 leaderboard preview, and the first draft of Whitepaper v2 for community review.
