How to use NewEra

Getting started

NewEra runs on BNB Chain and uses your Web3 wallet as your login, there's no email or password. At a high level, the loop is simple:

• Connect your wallet and claim a one-time welcome bonus.
• Generate an image from a text prompt.
• List the image, or the prompt behind it, for sale.
• Buy from other creators, and earn when your work sells.

Connect your wallet

1. Install MetaMask (or any compatible Web3 wallet) as a browser extension.
2. Add the BNB Chain Mainnet network to your wallet and switch to it.
3. On NewEra, click Connect wallet and approve the connection request.
4. Sign the login message, this proves you own the wallet. No funds move.

On your first connect, you'll be able to claim a 50 NEA welcome bonus from the Claim page. That's enough to start generating right away.

Generate an image

1. Open the Studio and write a prompt describing what you want.
2. Hit Generate. You'll confirm a transaction in your wallet.
3. The image is created and tied to your wallet, you own it.

Prompt tips: be specific. Name the subject, the style, the setting, and the lighting. The clearer the prompt, the more control you have over the result.

Owning your work

When you generate, your payment is recorded on-chain and the image is linked to your wallet. Your claim to each image is backed by a verifiable transaction, not just a row in a private database. If you later sell it, ownership transfers to the buyer on-chain and the item leaves your collection.

List & sell

1. Go to your collection and pick an image you own.
2. Choose List for sale and set your own price in NEA.
3. Confirm the listing transaction. It now appears on the marketplace.

There's no listing fee, you set the price. When it sells, the payment is split automatically by the smart contract (more on that below).

Sell a prompt

A strong prompt is valuable on its own. On NewEra you can list the prompt behind an image:

• The image stays visible as a public preview.
• The prompt text stays locked.
• A buyer unlocks the full prompt only after they pay.

It's a way to earn from your prompt-writing skill, not just the picture.

Buy from the marketplace

1. Browse the Marketplace or Prompt market.
2. Pick an item and choose Buy. Approve the NEA payment in your wallet.
3. Ownership transfers to you on-chain, and for prompts, the text unlocks.

Everything you buy lands in your collection, backed by an on-chain record.

Earnings & rewards

When someone buys your work, the smart contract splits the payment automatically:

On top of sales, NewEra has bonus tasks, one-time rewards for completing key actions like your first generation, first listing, first prompt sale, and first purchase. Each reward is paid to your wallet on-chain, and each task can be claimed once.

The NEA token

NEA is the platform's utility token (an ERC-20 on BNB Chain). You use it to generate images and to buy on the marketplace, and you earn it by selling your work, completing bonus tasks, and through referrals.

• Welcome bonus: 50 NEA on your first connect.
• Generation: 10 NEA per image.
• Platform fee: 5% of every sale supports the platform.

Troubleshooting

My wallet won't connect. Make sure MetaMask is installed, unlocked, and set to BNB Chain Mainnet. Refresh and try again.

A transaction is stuck or failed. Check that you have enough test BNB for gas and enough NEA for the action. Wait for the network, then retry.

I don't see my new image or purchase. Give it a moment to confirm on-chain, then refresh the page.
