ALEX Community Update: Commencement of Buyback & Burn and Close of TGP Following governance approval of End of Emissions, Token Buyback and Burn, Close of TGP, the buyback-and-burn phase is being initiated and the Treasury Grant Program is now formally closed, after claims remained open for more than two years. Where things stand: 🔸Emissions are tapering to zero ALEX is in its final emissions cycles; farming and staking rewards reach zero from cycle 409, after which no new $ALEX will ever be issued. Rewards continue through the remaining cycles and wind down with them; no action is required from participants in the meantime. 🔸 Buyback and burn commences soon The unclaimed STX remaining in the TGP treasury at the close of the grace period (approximately 1.44 million STX, swept to the DAO treasury on execution of AGP-633) initiates the program; protocol revenue in excess of essential operating costs sustains it thereafter. Both fund the buyback and permanent burn of $ALEX. Purchases are made at the Foundation’s discretion at prevailing market prices over time; no start time, schedule, per-purchase size, or execution method will be published in advance. 🔸 TGP 2024 is closed A two-week governance vote approved the close of claims, followed by a 30-day grace period for remaining TGP 2024 claims that concluded on July 1. TGP 2024 has now formally closed. Obligations under TGP 2025 were fully discharged previously. This marks the protocol’s transition from an inflationary to a deflationary token model. Also of note: Brotocol aBTC and aUSD peg-out window has closed As Brotocol moves to a new chain, the standard peg-out window for Stacks-based $aBTC and $aUSD has closed. Per Brotocol, assets remain recoverable; peg-outs are now handled directly with the Brotocol team on an ad hoc basis, see 🔗nitter.gq/Brotocol_xyz/status/20… A transparency report covering treasury disposition and buyback-and-burn activity will be published in due course.

Community Update: ALEX to Delist from MEXC on November 7 ALEX Lab Foundation has requested the voluntary delisting of ALEX from MEXC, effective 7 November 2026, to consolidate trading liquidity and direct resources to the ALEX DEX and the ALEX buyback and burn program. 🔗medium.com/alexgobtc/communi… If you hold ALEX on MEXC, withdraw it now to your own Stacks wallet or to Gate.io. 🔹Trading and deposits on MEXC end at around 14:00 UTC on 7 November 2026. Do not send ALEX to MEXC. 🔹MEXC says withdrawals remain available for 30 days after the delisting, to around 7 December. Withdraw well before then. 🔹Cancel any open ALEX orders before trading ends so your full balance can be withdrawn. 🔹If your balance is below MEXC's minimum withdrawal amount, you can sell on MEXC until trading ends. 🔹Select the Stacks network. For your own wallet, use a Stacks address starting with SP. If sending to Gate.io, copy the deposit address and the required memo from your own Gate.io deposit page. ALEX trading on Gate.io and the ALEX DEX (app.alexlab.co) and the on-chain buyback and burn program are not affected. There is no migration or swap. ALEX is unchanged. Admins will never DM you first or ask for your seed phrase. Questions: discord.gg/alexlab MEXC announcement: mexc.com/announcements/artic… Medium details: medium.com/alexgobtc/communi…

ALEX Buyback & Burn: Fourth Progress Update The buyback-and-burn program continues. STX from the closed TGP treasury is being used to acquire $ALEX on the open market. The $ALEX acquired is either burned directly or exchanged for LiALEX, whose redemption is intended to be burned when it matures. 🔗medium.com/alexgobtc/alex-bu… As of November 1, 2026: 🔸 84,037,391 $ALEX permanently burned — equal to approximately 9.2% of today's total supply 🔸 1,188,216 STX deployed — approximately 82% of the treasury allocation, up from 11% at our first report 🔸 $ALEX total supply now 911,492,388 — supply can still rise as staking and farming rewards earned before Cycle #409 are claimed 🔸 LiALEX route live — approximately 4,656,515 LiALEX held or awaiting redemption. LiALEX-route burns are recorded as each redemption matures, about five months after it is requested, so the burned total does not yet reflect these purchases 🔸 Every purchase and burn settles on-chain and is independently verifiable Emissions end in early November. ALEX staking and farming rewards reach zero from Cycle #409, expected in early November. Rewards earned up to and including Cycle #408 remain claimable; no action is needed and no claim deadline has been set. Purchases are made at the Foundation's discretion at prevailing market prices over time. Consistent with prior guidance, no schedule, size, or execution detail is published in advance.

ALEX Buyback and Burn: A LiALEX Route Is Coming With LISA winding down, LiALEX redemption remains open but takes about four months from request. Selling on the ALEX/LiALEX pool is faster, but currently at a discount. 🔗medium.com/alexgobtc/alex-bu… In the next few weeks, subject to a DAO governance proposal, the buyback will add a second route. Alongside buying and burning $Alex, it will be able to use the $Alex it buys to buy LiALEX on the pool, redeem it, and burn all the $Alex returned. 🔸Adds a buyer for LiALEX, which should narrow the discount for early exits 🔸Burns more $Alex per STX spent Every $Alex acquired is still burned: immediately on the direct route, at redemption on the LiALEX route LiALEX holders can sell on the pool, or redeem 1:1 in about four months. No action required. ALEX Lab Foundation commits to supporting redemption after the LISA wind-down, including instructions for redeeming directly on the contract.
