Dust during automation

Dust means small leftover token amounts that can remain after rebalancing or minting because:

  • swaps can’t be perfectly exact,

  • rounding occurs on-chain,

  • slippage changes final amounts.

Alloc8’s Position Manager includes refunds for unused tokens during mint/increase to avoid overpaying, which is one common source of “dust.”

Key point: dust is not “lost.” It typically remains in your Smart Account as small token balances.
