DUST FAMILY
First NFT collection born in the Aster ecosystem

Ten thousand
hooded travellers.

Every trade leaves dust. DUST is the hooded figure Aster’s community made from those fragments. Dust Family is what happens when the traveller is no longer alone: 10,000 unique companions on BNB Smart Chain.

The story

Born from the space between trades.

DUST is Aster’s mascot: a character, not a product. Dust Family keeps that spirit. It is the first collection to originate from inside the Aster ecosystem, and it promises nothing except that it exists, verifiably, on-chain.

CHAPTER I

The remainder

Every order that fills leaves something too small to spend. Dust. For years it was swept into corners of the ledger and forgotten. On Aster, enough of it gathered to notice itself.

CHAPTER II

The hood

What gathered took a shape: a traveller in a dark hood, with a halo that remembers where it came from and a blade for the friction it will meet. The community called it DUST and gave it a flag.

CHAPTER III

The family

A traveller who walks long enough finds others on the road. Ten thousand of them, each cut from the same cloth and each unlike the next. No two hoods, halos or blades repeat.

CHAPTER IV

The next cycle

Dust Family is minted before the pump, not after it. Holders are the first to carry Aster’s mascot on-chain as something you can own, send, and show. What it becomes is up to the family.

The collection

One cloth, ten thousand cuts.

Hoods, halos, blades, backgrounds and marks are combined by a generator and pinned to IPFS. Art is hidden behind a single placeholder until reveal, then frozen forever.

FAQ

Questions travellers ask.

What is Dust Family?

A 10,000-piece NFT collection on BNB Smart Chain in the image of DUST, Aster DEX's community mascot. It is the first NFT collection to originate from the Aster ecosystem.

Which chain and standard?

BNB Smart Chain (chain id 56). The contract is an OpenZeppelin-based ERC-721 with ERC-2981 royalties, so it works on OpenSea and every BNB-chain marketplace.

How much does a mint cost?

The price is set on-chain per phase and shown live in the Mint section. Payment is exact: the contract rejects over- and under-payment, so nothing gets stuck.

How does the whitelist work?

Whitelisted addresses are committed as a Merkle root in the contract. Connect your wallet in the Mint section; if you are on the list, the site finds your proof automatically and the Whitelist button lights up.

How many can I mint?

Up to 10 per transaction. Per-wallet limits are set per phase by the contract and displayed next to the quantity selector.

When is the art revealed?

Every token shows the same placeholder until the team calls reveal(). After reveal, the metadata can be frozen permanently with freezeMetadata(), which cannot be undone.

Which wallets are supported?

MetaMask, WalletConnect (any mobile wallet), Coinbase Wallet, Trust, Binance Wallet, OKX, Rabby, Phantom, Rainbow, Bitget, SafePal, TokenPocket, Coin98, Gate, Bybit, Ledger, Safe, OneKey, Frame, Uniswap, Zerion, Argent, Brave, Kraken, Backpack, imToken, MEW, 1inch, Enkrypt, Fox, Frontier, SubWallet, Taho, Talisman, Zeal and any other injected wallet via EIP-6963.

Is the contract audited?

Yes. The contract ships with a full test suite (unit, fuzz and invariant tests) and an audit report in the smart-contracts repository. The deployed address is verified on BscScan.
