Ethernal Cubs Mint Date: 29 October 14:00 UTC Checklist

Ethernal Cubs Mint Date: 29 October 14:00 UTC ChecklistThe Ethernal Cubs mint opens Thursday 29 October 2026 at 14:00 UTC on OpenSea. Your local time, wallet, gas and link checklist for mint day.By Proud Lion Studios · 16 October 2026 · 7 min readThe Ethernal Cubs mint opens on Thursday 29 October 2026 at 14:00 UTC on OpenSea, and it runs until Thursday 5 November. It is a free mint of 3,333 Orbs on Robinhood Chain, open to whitelisted wallets, and the whitelist board closes the night before, on Wednesday 28 October at 23:59 UTC.This page is the checklist to get through before then: what time that is where you live, which wallet to use, how much ETH you need, how to make sure you are on the real collection, and what to do if the page is slow when you arrive. Network figures below were read from the chain on 16 October 2026.What time does the Ethernal Cubs mint open in my time zone?14:00 UTC is the only time that matters. One trap to know about: Europe moves its clocks back on Sunday 25 October, while the United States does not change until 1 November. So in the week of the mint, London is on UTC itself and New York is four hours behind it, not five. We worked out every row below from the official time zone database rather than from a converter.

Read the middle column carefully if you are east of London. For most of Europe, Africa, the Gulf and Asia, the board closes in the early hours of Thursday, the same day the mint opens. If you still have spots to claim, do it on Wednesday, not on Thursday morning.Before mint day: the checklistEverything here can be done this week. None of it should be left for the hour the mint opens.

Confirm your spot on the board. Sign in at ethernalcubs.ai with your wallet and check that your spots show against it. The allowlist is built from the board, so anything not recorded there by Wednesday 23:59 UTC does not count.

Use the wallet that earned the spot. A spot belongs to a wallet address, not to you as a person. Mint from the same Ethereum wallet you signed in with. A different wallet, even one you own, is not on the list.

Add Robinhood Chain to that wallet. Chain ID 4663, gas paid in ETH. Our guide to adding Robinhood Chain to MetaMask has every field.

Put a little ETH on Robinhood Chain. Not on Ethereum, not on another Layer 2. On Robinhood Chain itself. The next section covers how much and how.

Save the real collection link. Bookmark it now, from our own site, so you never have to search for it on the day.

Know where the team speaks. Announcements come from ethernalcubs.ai, @ethernalcubs on X and discord.gg/ethernalcubs. The team never DMs first.

How much ETH do I need to mint an Orb?The mint price is zero. You pay only network gas, and on Robinhood Chain that is very small. On 16 October 2026 at 06:07 UTC the official RPC reported a gas price of 20,230,000 wei, or 0.0202 gwei, at block 89,853,462, and confirmed chain ID 4663. CoinGecko priced ETH at $2,442.37 that minute.

So the mint itself costs less than a cent at today's price. We still suggest one or two dollars of ETH on the chain: it covers a busy minute, a retry, and a revoke or two later on. When we asked the RPC for a suggested priority fee it answered zero, which matches the first come, first served ordering described in the chain's documentation. Paying a tip does not push you ahead, so accept the fee your wallet suggests.The easiest way to get that ETH there is the Swap button inside MetaMask. On 16 October 2026 the MetaMask swaps guide listed Robinhood Chain as a supported network, said bridging between networks can be done through Swaps, and showed a MetaMask fee of 0.875%. For larger amounts the official Arbitrum bridge avoids that percentage fee. Our guide to bridging ETH to Robinhood Chain compares the routes.How do I know I am on the real collection?The official collection is Ethernal Cubs Orbs on OpenSea, at opensea.io/collection/ethernal-cubs-orbs. We checked that the page was up on 16 October 2026. Copy cats are a real risk on any free mint, and Ethernal Cubs has already had one impersonator delisted, so treat any other link as suspect.

Open the collection from the link on ethernalcubs.ai or from your own bookmark, never from a reply, a DM or a search result.

Check that the collection is on Robinhood Chain and that the slug is ethernal-cubs-orbs.

Read every wallet prompt. A real mint is one transaction to the drop contract, with a gas fee and zero or close to zero ETH being sent. It never asks for approval over NFTs or tokens you already hold. Our guide to spotting a fake NFT collection on OpenSea has the full checks.

Nobody from the team will ever ask for your recovery phrase.

On mint day: step by step

A few minutes before 14:00 UTC, open your bookmarked collection page and unlock your wallet.

Switch the wallet network to Robinhood Chain and check that your ETH balance there is not zero.

Connect the wallet that holds your whitelist spot.

When the mint opens, press mint and read the prompt: the drop contract, the gas fee, nothing else.

Confirm, then wait a few seconds. Robinhood Chain produces blocks quickly.

Check the result. The transaction shows on the Robinhood Chain explorer under your address, and the Orb appears in your OpenSea profile shortly after. Our explorer guide shows what to look for.

What if the mint page is busy or a transaction fails?Do not panic, and do not go looking for another link. The mint window runs for a full week, to Thursday 5 November, so there is no reason to rush a prompt you have not read.

What you see

What to do

The page is slow or will not load

Wait a minute and reload your bookmark. Busy pages recover. A link someone posts in a reply is not a fix.

Mint button is not active yet

Check the clock against the table above. The mint opens at 14:00 UTC, not before.

Insufficient funds

Your wallet has no ETH on Robinhood Chain. Swap a little in, then try again.

Wrong network warning

Switch the wallet to Robinhood Chain, chain ID 4663.

Not eligible

You are probably connected with a different wallet from the one on the board. Switch to the right one.

Transaction pending for a long time

Look up your address on the explorer before trying again. A pending transaction may still go through.

If something still looks wrong, ask in the public channels of the Discord. Anyone who offers to help you by private message is not the team.What happens after you mint?You hold a sealed Orb. Orbs come in five tiers by name, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond and Sapphire, and the tier stays hidden until you open it at ethernalcubs.ai. The Orb is the start of your own customizable Cub, a character you build from swappable parts, battle with, and show off to the community. An AI companion is coming soon and will let you talk to your Cub. If you want the story behind the Orbs, read the fallen star lore, and for the full flow see how to play.Frequently asked questionsWhen is the Ethernal Cubs mint date?Thursday 29 October 2026 at 14:00 UTC, on OpenSea.
