​
Custody

NewEra is non-custodial. We cannot move your credits, sell your images, or sign anything on your behalf. When you connect a wallet, a Safe smart account is derived from it. Your wallet is the sole owner of that account. NewEra is not a signer, not a co-owner, and has no recovery path into it.

You control

Your wallet. Your smart account. Your credits. Your images and listings.

NewEra controls

Platform reserves, the claim wallet that distributes welcome credits, and the fee collector.
The two do not overlap. There is no function anywhere in our contracts that lets NewEra take assets out of a user’s smart account.

​
Payment verification

This is the part most platforms get wrong, and it is worth explaining precisely. When the interface reports that a user generated an image or bought a listing, the backend does not take its word for it.
1

Read the receipt from chain

The backend fetches the transaction receipt directly from an RPC node.
2

Decode the event from its topics

Rather than trusting a stored ABI file, the verifier decodes the emitted event straight from its log topics. Deployed contracts and committed interfaces can drift. Chain data cannot.
3

Match the payer

The address that paid must equal the authenticated smart account. A transaction signed by someone else cannot be claimed.
4

Reject replays

A transaction hash can be used exactly once. A replayed hash is rejected before anything is generated or unlocked.
There is no path to an image, a purchase, or a reward without a settled, verified, unreused on-chain payment.

​
Authentication

There are no passwords, no email logins, and no account recovery, because there is no account to recover. Login is a signed message, verified against the smart account using ERC-1271, and ERC-6492 for accounts that have not been deployed on chain yet. The signature is checked against the chain, not against a database.

​
Gas sponsorship

Sponsored transactions run through the standard ERC-4337 EntryPoint. A paymaster agrees to pay for each operation, subject to per-user and per-operation limits enforced by the sponsorship policy.
Gas sponsorship is offered during the launch phase. Limits, eligibility, and continuation may change as the platform grows. Sponsorship is not a guarantee, and an operation may be declined.

​
Contract security

The contracts are deployed and verified on BNB Smart Chain mainnet. The split, the generation cost, and the welcome amount are readable in the published source.
The contracts have not undergone a third-party security audit.Verified source code is not the same as reviewed source code. Read the contracts, or have someone you trust read them, before you commit anything you cannot afford to lose.

​
Upgradeability

Fill this in.State whether the contracts are immutable or upgradeable. If upgradeable, name the proxy pattern, who can trigger an upgrade, and whether there is a timelock. If immutable, say so, because it is a meaningful guarantee.

​
Admin privileges

Fill this in.List every privileged function on every contract, and who holds the owner key. If the owner can change the fee collector, pause the marketplace, or adjust any parameter, disclose it. If ownership has been renounced, say so.

​
What is fixed and what is not

Enforced in contract code

The 95/5 split. The 10 per generation. The 50 welcome amount. Atomic settlement of every sale.

Operated by NewEra

The interface. The API and index. Image generation and storage. Gas sponsorship.
If NewEra went offline permanently, everything in the first column would still be true, and everything in the second would stop. That is the correct order, and it is the one we built for.

​
Your responsibilities

Protect your wallet

Your wallet controls your smart account. Lose it and you lose access to your credits and your work. There is no recovery.

Verify before you approve

Check every contract address against an official source. Never approve an unlimited allowance to a contract you have not checked.

Treat unsolicited offers as fraud

NewEra will never DM you first, never ask for a seed phrase, and never run a presale.

Understand finality

On-chain transactions cannot be reversed, by us or by anyone.

​
Known limitations

Being specific here is more useful than claiming there are none.
  • Images are not NFTs. Payments and sales are recorded on chain. The link between a listing and the work it points to is maintained by NewEra and is reconstructible from chain events.
  • Listings can go stale. If two buyers reach the same listing at once, the second transaction reverts. Nothing is lost, but the interface may briefly show an item that has already sold.
  • AI output is not guaranteed. Models are probabilistic. NewEra does not warrant that a generated image is original, suitable, or matches your intent.
  • Generation depends on third parties. Inference providers rate limit and go down. When every fallback fails, the generation fails.
  • The index can lag the chain. Pages are served from an index. If it falls behind, the chain is still correct and the page is not.

​
Responsible disclosure

If you find a vulnerability, tell us before you tell anyone else.

Report a security issue

Contact the team directly. We will respond, and we will not pursue researchers acting in good faith.
Add a dedicated security contact before publishing. A generic contact page is not enough. Publish an address that reaches an engineer, and state your response window.
Platform credits are free credits for using NewEra during pre-launch. They have no monetary value and cannot be withdrawn or exchanged for money outside the platform.
