AEON is a 10,000 NFT collection on Base built around one problem that kills every NFT project — the floor going to zero.
Most collections have nothing backing their floor price. When people dump, the price collapses and late holders lose everything. AEON tries to fix that structurally.
When you mint for $1, half of that is locked inside your token by the smart contract. Not by the team — by code. If you ever want out, you burn your token and get that $0.50 back instantly. That means no matter how bad the market gets, no matter how many people dump, your token always has a redeemable value. The floor cannot go to zero because the contract won't allow it.
For people who hold and the collection sells out, every AEON evolves through 4 on-chain stages simultaneously. Nobody gets early reveal. The whole collection awakens together, which means early holders benefit from the sell out the same way late holders do.
The $0.50 lock is not compensation for minting. It is insurance against the worst outcome in NFTs — buying something that becomes worthless. You always have an exit.
