Dust Tokens Explained: Small Balances and Hidden Value on Blast
Understand why tiny token balances appear and when they are worth consolidating.
Why this matters on Blast
A tiny balance is not automatically worthless. Its practical value depends on liquidity, transferability, network fees, and whether the token is actually legitimate.
Blast is an Ethereum scaling environment with its own balances and application ecosystem.
Blast is part of the Ethereum scaling ecosystem. The same ticker can exist on Ethereum and on Blast as separate token contracts, so a balance seen on one network cannot be assumed to exist, or to be redeemable at the same value, on the other.
Blast: what to pay attention to
- Assets and tokens: Verify the token contract on Blast.
- Costs: Compare network and route costs before moving low-value assets.
