How NFTs work on Kadena: Marmalade

Kadena NFTs use Marmalade, a token standard written in Pact. A Marmalade token can be one of a kind or a small edition, and creators can attach rules such as royalties that the contract enforces on every sale, rather than leaving them to the marketplace. eckoWALLET shows Kadena NFTs.
