## Critical identity note first: MATH = MathChain's token, not Matchain's $MAT

A key point of confusion in the source set: the ticker **MATH-USD** refers to the **MATH token of MathChain**, the Singapore-based **MATH Global Foundation** (the team behind MathWallet) [[4]](https://docs.mathchain.org/en/token/)[[6]](https://blog.mathwallet.org/tag/mathchain/). It is **not** the same as **Matchain's $MAT** token, a separate project with its own team (CEO Petrix Barbosa) and a different roadmap (participation/sovereignty layers, MatchID, MatchVibe, etc.) [[1]](https://www.matchain.io/blog/matchain-unveils-roadmap-for-h2-2026----from-participation-to-sovereignty)[[2]](https://www.matchain.io/roadmap)[[3]](https://techannouncer.com/matchain-unveils-roadmap-for-2025-2026-how-mat-and-matchai-unlock-real-utility-across-daily-life/). The two names are easy to conflate but describe distinct assets, so the "hot" Matchain H2 2026 roadmap material does **not** describe MATH's own activity.
