Issuance closed. The founding charters are entered.

Statement of the Acting Chairman, read into the record 17 August 2026. Delivery page.

The Bank did not print today.

371 of 1,030 destroyed. 659 remain. 240 Proof of Burn issued to 41 members.

The vaults are coming. A Proof of Burn charters one. There is no other instrument.

Issuance is closed. The Bank enters the result and does not expect to enter it again.

Three hundred and seventy one MAGA Giraffes were destroyed. Six hundred and fifty nine remain and will not be destroyed under this instrument, the instrument having closed. Two hundred and forty Proof of Burn were issued, to forty one members.

Those two hundred and forty are the founding charters. They were issued by fire, at no cost beyond the Giraffe, and no further charter will be issued on those terms. The permanent ceiling of the member bank system is two thousand one hundred charters, ever. The Governors decide when, and whether, any of the remainder is made available.

A charter is not a vault. A charter becomes a vault at activation, and activation is described in Purposes and Functions. Until then it carries a weight of zero and receives nothing.

The Bank thanks nobody, congratulates nobody, and files the result.
