Afterflow Sells Out All 10,000 Free Mints as Reveal Clock Starts

October 26, 2026

Afterflow is sold out. An Ethereum totalSupply read on the verified Afterflow (AFTER) contract 0xa339…5756 returned the full 10,000-piece cap by roughly 10:37 a.m. PDT on Monday, October 26, 2026 — about 37 minutes after the scheduled public phase began at 1:00 p.m. EDT. That is the second chapter after this morning’s allowlist print of about 2,557 minted while the project site still showed a stale zero (LN 11282). The mint page UI remains unreliable; the chain counter is the receipt for the sellout.

Disorderly’s published rules still govern what happens next. Mint price was 0 ETH plus gas, wallet limit five across phases, and artwork stays on the shared unrevealed placeholder until reveal. Reveal begins two hours after minting closes, and minting closes at sellout or the announced deadline — whichever comes first. With supply at the cap, the edition is closed by sellout, so the reveal clock is now a timed follow-on rather than a 12-hour public grind. Attribute the schedule and reveal rule to disorderly’s mint page; attribute the 10,000 fill to the on-chain supply read.

The fill path matters for culture desks. Allowlist opened at 11:00 a.m. EDT and had already parked roughly a quarter of the cap before public. The remaining ~7,440 pieces cleared after the public gate, compressing what could have been a twelve-hour window into a sub-hour rush on the tape we can measure. Do not invent a precise last-mint transaction hash, a per-wallet whale leaderboard, or a claim that the front-end “0 / 10,000” banner ever matched the live contract during the fill.

Timing math stays approximate on purpose. Public was scheduled for 1:00 p.m. EDT (10:00 a.m. PDT). By about 10:37 a.m. PDT the contract already sat at 10,000, so the public tranche finished inside that first half-hour-plus on our check — not across the full twelve-hour public allowance. Exact block-time of the final mint is a separate explorer exercise; the desk fact for this chapter is the capped supply itself. If disorderly later posts an official sold-out notice, treat that as confirmation theater, not a different number.



Secondary chatter will try to price placeholders before art arrives. That is a different market from the mint. Every token still displays the same unrevealed image until the reveal draw confirms each seed’s artwork, per disorderly’s home copy. Partner messaging around burning five Afterflow into one Afterimage remains attributed lore until disorderly posts a matching primary interface. Collectors treating AFTER as immediately trait-tradable are ahead of the project’s own reveal rule.

Keep this lane separate from the rest of Monday’s NFT calendar. Pharaoh God Mob’s Heart Chakra canvas bounty still waits for the 6:00 p.m. ET handoff window; Pixel Penguin and Thrill Karts are already filed. Afterflow’s next primary is the reveal draw — not a rehash of the allowlist fill. Do not invent a Chainlink VRF transaction, an OpenSea trait map, or a floor print that does not exist yet on a primary you can cite.

For settlement desks watching free-mint gas spikes, the practical note is that the free price still burned Ethereum fees across 10,000 mints, and the public tranche absorbed most of the remaining supply after allowlist. The culture signal is the closed edition plus a hard reveal wait. The next receipt that moves the story is an official reveal confirmation, not another supply counter at the cap. Until that draw posts, treat secondary placeholder bids as speculation on unrevealed art rather than trait liquidity.

Lore thread: Watch for disorderly’s reveal-draw confirmation roughly two hours after close, whether placeholder secondary prints a durable floor before art lands, and whether any official Afterimage burn path ships beside the partner lore — those are the next signals on this sold-out generative drop.

Bottom line: Afterflow’s free Ethereum mint hit the full 10,000 cap after public opened at 1:00 p.m. EDT, locking the edition and starting the project’s two-hour reveal clock.
