Blockworks releases batch five of B-1 filings for multiple tokens

Blockworks has dropped the fifth batch of B-1 filings under its Token Transparency Framework, pushing the total number of disclosures past 161. The initiative, which launched in June 2025, is quietly becoming one of crypto’s most ambitious attempts to bring structure to the chaos of token launches.

Think of B-1 filings as the crypto equivalent of an S-1 prospectus, the document companies file before going public on a stock exchange. Except these are voluntary, industry-driven, and nobody’s going to jail if they skip one.

What the Token Transparency Framework actually does

The TTF is built around a simple premise: investors deserve to know what they’re buying. Each B-1 filing is a one-time disclosure document that standardizes information about a token’s economics, governance structure, allocation strategy, and risk profile.

As of early September 2026, the framework includes 105 B-1 filings among its 161 total disclosures. The previous batch, batch four, brought filings for tokens including ASI, CHZ, COMP, AKE, HBAR, KAITO, MANTRA, RAIN, WLFI, and WLD.

What makes the system particularly notable is that Blockworks compiles filings even when issuers don’t participate directly. Every token gets a baseline record regardless of whether the project team wants one.

The framework also includes a second filing type, the B-2, designed for more mature protocols that have already established track records. This two-tier system creates a distinction between newly launching tokens and projects with operational history, giving investors different lenses for different stages of development.

RapidFile and the push for adoption

In August 2026, Blockworks introduced RapidFile, a tool that automates parts of the submission process for issuers who actually want to file their own disclosures.

The TTF dashboard now hosts a mix of issuer-filed and Blockworks-compiled entries. That distinction matters. An issuer-filed disclosure carries more weight because the project itself is vouching for the accuracy of the information. A compiled entry, while useful, is essentially Blockworks doing its best with publicly available data.

The Transparency Alliance, a coalition supporting the framework, distributes these filings to institutional investors and analysts.

Regulatory engagement adds credibility

Blockworks has been in conversation with both the SEC and CFTC regarding the TTF since at least July 2026. The framework is explicitly voluntary and industry-driven, meaning it operates outside the formal regulatory perimeter.

For context, 161 disclosures covering the landscape of active token projects is still a fraction of the total market. Moving from zero standardized filings to 105 B-1s in roughly 15 months suggests momentum.

The inclusion of tokens like HBAR, COMP, and WLD in previous batches signals that the TTF isn’t limited to obscure microcaps. These are projects with meaningful market capitalizations and existing institutional investor bases.
