Aether is the image layer under the turtle ecosystem: it composites NFT images on the fly from trait data, writes the metadata, pins both for permanence, and keeps serving fresh frames as dynamic layers change.
# traits in · image out chain: pearl traits: element · cosmic # → image, metadata, ready to mint
Overview
Chromosome frames, color scales, and trait layers composited on demand. Images stream rather than sit pre-baked, which is what makes time- and market-reactive turtles possible.
Standards-compliant JSON with trait rarity computed automatically and schemas validated before anything ships.
Images and metadata pinned for permanence, with gateway fallbacks and CDN caching so wallets and marketplaces load fast.
Mints, transfers, sales, breeding, and staking across every supported chain, searchable through one API.
Inheritance and offspring rendering as one step — hatchling image and metadata ready to mint.
World lines, world sheets, and particle interactions rendered as generative art.
For builders
Generate images from traits, fetch metadata, search the marketplace, and run the breeding pipeline — four operations cover most work.
Composite an image from trait data; get back URLs ready for minting.
Fetch attributes, rarity scores, and standards-compliant JSON for any token.
Search and filter NFTs across chains with current pricing.
Compute offspring traits, render the hatchling, prepare the mint.
