What DustEthic is
An open specification for consent, batching, fee calculation, batch proof and NGO net readability.
Open standard - Phase 0
DustEthic is an open-source standard proposal to help wallets turn dormant micro-balances into readable, capped and verifiable donation batches.
The goal is not to create a token, a central treasury or an automatic impact claim. The goal is to describe a method that wallets, relayers and NGOs could apply in a verifiable way.
An open specification for consent, batching, fee calculation, batch proof and NGO net readability.
Not a custodian, not a custody protocol, not a yield promise and not an active fundraising channel during phase 0.
Each step must be readable by a non-technical donor and precise enough for a developer or NGO to audit.
The wallet identifies dust that can be donated without creating more cost than impact.
The donor signs a bounded intent: asset, network, amount, NGO, expiry and fee cap.
The relayer executes only if the batch reaches a rational threshold and a known fee rule.
The batch publishes gross amount, gas, commission, NGO net, network and public proof.
Useful DustEthic proof does not only say that a donation happened. It shows how the final amount was obtained.
The useful next step is to stabilize intent and proof schemas, then test the model in a simulator before any handling of real funds.
