Trapped Dust (EVM Token Remnants)
Direct Definition: Trapped dust refers to fractional cryptocurrency remnants left in EVM wallets where transfer fees exceed asset value.
On-Chain Technical Mechanics
In decentralized finance (DeFi), token dust occurs after executing swaps or multi-chain transfers across Layer-2 networks (Arbitrum, Base, Linea, Scroll). Atomic batching protocols and EVM cross-chain sweepers consolidate dust from multiple networks into a single native asset in one transaction.
