My First Look at NFTs on Solana

My First Look at NFTs on Solana

Short summary

NFTs on Solana are tokens configured with specific rules—1 supply, 0 decimals, removed mint authority—not special objects. Solana's Token Extensions now let developers embed NFT features on-chain instead of relying entirely on external protocols like Metaplex. This opens possibilities beyond collectibles: tickets, memberships, certificates, and gaming assets.
