Exactly, and they also have spin 1/2, but we're unsure of their other properties that might make them Majorana particles.
They are composite particles and we know exactly how they behave: like fermions. They are not Majorana fermions, and nothing about them is mystery.
I explained how you're totally confusing things somewhere else in the thread.
