Littles is a collection of 8,888 fully onchain pets and the first project built on LIT-1, a hybrid ERC-20/ERC-721 architecture for liquid, composable onchain objects. Every Little is customizable and permanently creates exactly one whole $LITTLE, the liquid ERC-20 token. The two standards are synchronized views of the same object.

Genesis supply is fixed at 8,888 pairs. A Little and its unit of $LITTLE are created atomically; neither can be independently issued or burned. There is no deposit, no redemption queue, no wrapper — the tether is direct and permanent.

One $LITTLE, one inscription, one Little: two synchronized token views, with automatic handling at whole-token boundaries.

Buy exactly 1.0 $LITTLE on the liquid market and a Little arrives automatically when your wallet crosses the whole-token boundary. You do not pick which one — selection is deterministic.

An ERC-721 transfer moves that exact Little and exactly 1.000000000000000000 $LITTLE in the same transaction. This is the path for a specific identity.

A fungible ERC-20 transfer reconciles Littles at whole-balance boundaries automatically. The protocol picks which Littles move — the sender cannot choose.

Send 0.5 $LITTLE from a 1.0 balance and one Little enters the automatic inscription bank. It keeps its ID, DNA, species, loadout, and history — but has no external owner authority and cannot be restyled while banked.

When a balance later crosses upward through a whole boundary, a Little is released automatically — selected by the protocol’s deterministic bank order, not by a picker.

There is nothing to redeem. $LITTLE is not a receipt for a Little in a vault — the Little and $LITTLE are the same object seen through two standards. Fractions of $LITTLE are valid at any balance.

The optional identity-bound module lets an owner place one exact Little and its paired 1 $LITTLE in a permanent per-ID vault, then receive a fixed supply of ERC-20 fractions for that specific Little. Those fractions can trade in creator-configured markets — markets within the broader $LITTLE market — while the Little keeps its identity, appearance, account, inventory, and history. Depositing 90% claims the complete bundle.

Each Little combines permanent character traits with six optional equippable slots: environment, head, side hardware, expression, upper clothing, and lower clothing. These onchain ERC-1155 items change the Little’s rendered appearance when equipped, while extras can live in its Little-owned account as inventory.

The liquid market is a $LITTLE/WETH Uniswap v4 custom-accounting curve seeded with all 8,888 $LITTLE, zero real WETH, and 1.6 virtual WETH. It follows normal constant-product pricing while sells remain backed only by WETH paid through prior buys. Its fixed 2% swap fee is charged only in WETH — it never reduces the $LITTLE amount, so buying exactly 1.0 $LITTLE delivers exactly one whole $LITTLE. Buying fungible $LITTLE does not select a particular Little.

Active ERC-721 Littles trade on compatible NFT marketplaces — a sale moves the exact Little plus one $LITTLE atomically. Littles advertises a 5% ERC-2981 royalty; external venues choose whether to honor it. The native LIT1Market enforces that same 5% as its sole charge, with no stacked market fee, and adds escrowed bids for an exact Little, a trait mask, one generation, the whole collection, or an exact equippable ID. It is bid-based; no listings, auctions, or lending are implied.
