Dust accounts are accounts with very little funds, generally less than the amount needed to conduct a transaction. Too many dust accounts add unnecessary data to the blockchain, which would make it difficult for full nodes to sync with the network (since every full node has a complete copy of the blockchain).
On the Acala network, an address is only active when it holds a minimum amount (exact number TBD). This minimum amount is called “Existential Deposit” (ED), similar to . All native tokens e.g. DOT, ACA, aUSD, BTC etc. would have this feature, but it is not enforced upon ERC-20 tokens in the EVM.
