Not long ago, @asterixlabs pushed DN404 to become an official ERC standard. ERC-7631 has now been formally approved by @ethereum
The NFT standard, ERC-721, was approved in 2018 and the NFT summer erupted in 2021. You're still early to join the revolution.
Hybrid is the future.
It’s unavoidable: every token and every NFT attract speculators. They exit soon after the rush. Hype cools. Supply starts to outrun demand. Floors drop and collections stall.
Our chosen NFTstrategy flywheel is built for this reality. Scarcity increases over time. Ownership concentrates around people who actually believe. The tax system funds the loop across buyback and burns, deeper liquidity, and holder rewards. Fewer tourists: stronger holders.
ERC-7631 links ERC20 and ERC721 to one supply, so the DEX enforces the effective floor. If the token sets the number, you exit there. Undercutting the NFT listing becomes irrational.
Our parent token $ASTX CA: 0x0000000000ca73A6df4C58b84C5B4b847FE8Ff39 is now a strategy on its own. One supply, two surfaces. ERC-7631 links ERC20 and ERC721 so liquidity actions and identity actions point to the same outcome.
Our next mission is clear:
We’re building the infrastructure L2s need to thrive.
Infra that can help entire chains reach positive EV and unlock models that actually work long term.
A fresh new primitive.
One that could give L2s a real shot both technically and economically.
Introduction to EIPs, ERCs, RIPs.
EIP: Ethereum Improvement Proposal
Protocol-level changes, enforced by the Ethereum clients.
Activated via hardforks.
Full nodes must upgrade, else fork to opt-out.
ERC: Ethereum Request for Comments
Application layer standards.
Conventions for Solidity, calldata, storage, signatures.
Opt-in. Adoption -> network effects.
RIP: Rollup Improvement Proposal
Provincial laws for rollup city-states.
Opt-in for L2s. Opt-out for nodes within an L2.
May lead to EIPs.
The numbers are shared between EIPs, ERCs, RIPs, assigned sequentially by maintainers.
To start one, you will first need to open an Ethereum Magicians forum thread, then make a draft which links to the thread. After which, the specific process depends.
Examples:
EIP-7939: Count Leading Zeros (CLZ)
An opcode in the upcoming Fusaka hardfork that can speed up math operations with smaller bytecode. As a basic math operation that costs as much as a 256-bit `ADD`, this is most suitably implemented as an opcode, which is most suitably implemented as an EIP.
ERC-7631: Dual Nature Token Pair
Interfaces for how a co-joined fungible and and non-fungible token pair can signal their relationship. Opt-in standard. Allows for better discoverability, better UX.
RIP-7767: Gas to Ether contract
A contract that burns gas and returns a portion of the gas burned to the caller as the native currency. Due to the adventurous nature of this proposal, this could be piloted as a pre-compile / pre-deploy on rollups first. The tentative mainnet analog is EIP-7791 (GAS2ETH opcode).
Difficulty to get adoption / inclusion:
EIP > RIP > ERC (approximately)
To explain why, each of these deserves their own elaboration in separate threads, best left for future content.
We’re building new primitives that reclaim MEV and sequencer flow for builders and communities.
Structured right, it becomes a public good that strengthens the chain instead of bleeding it.
Used correctly? You have the ultimate flywheel.
This is the future we’re committing to
It’s official!! The DN404 smart contract, paring an ERC 20 with a ERC 721 via mirroring was just approved and made an official ERC by @ethereum ERC-7631 is now an official standard. The flagship project is @asterixlabs the ticker is $ASTX

The EF Silviculture Society: a loose collection of individuals from outside the Foundation who provide informal counsel to the EF in tending to the (dark or otherwise) forests in the infinite garden of Ethereum, to make sure we sustain the core values of open source, privacy, security and censorship resistance.
The roots of the infinite garden are nourished by soils rich in these core values. Ethereum’s success depends on having talented and committed developers building with these values in mind, and EF’s ethos and work has always been centered around them.

Beyond the Standard: DN404 in Action
A series where we go over implementation of DN404 tech in novel ways and in different industries to solve existing problems
Episode 1 – How to use DN404 to solve Game Asset Liquidity without breaking Ownership
Game economies have always struggled to balance actual ownership with smooth liquidity:
• NFTs (ERC-721) are unique but often illiquid.
• Tokens (ERC-20) are liquid but lose item individuality.
• Fractionalisation typically requires third-party vaults, breaking composability
DN404 changes this, merging ERC-20 liquidity with ERC-721 uniqueness. This enables ownership transfer, trading, and fast liquidity while preserving each asset’s identity
Anomalies, what a year it’s been!
From what began as a simple experimental on-chain concept to a whole new product ecosystem. We set out with a spark to reimagine NFTs, diving deep into innovation with Hybrid Assets.
Today, we celebrate 365 days of pushing boundaries together. Your energy has driven us to build a new digital frontier, and here’s what we’ve accomplished:
- DN404 – Dual Nature ERC721 <-> ERC20 Token
- The Anomatrix – https://t.co/YCnkE5dZhj
- GachaDex – https://t.co/LABlgW1s2P
- A forward-thinking collaboration with @Aptos
- The launch of @AmaterasuSekai
- Ongoing innovation with @nexium_one
- Multiple ongoing and completed partnerships
We’re gearing up to deliver bigger, better, and bolder innovations. Your unwavering support and belief in this vision fuels our momentum, pushing us to break new ground and redefine what’s possible. Together, we are stronger.
We are here to innovate
We are here to build
We are here to lead
We are the Anomalies
Happy anniversary,
Rupert
