If you're familiar with the world of NFTs (non-fungible tokens) on the Solana blockchain, you've probably come across the term "token metadata." But what exactly is token metadata? 
Token metadata refers to the information associated with an NFT. It provides essential details about the token, such as its name, description, image, attributes, and more. Think of it as the digital passport of an NFT, containing all the necessary information to identify and understand the token.
SPL Token-2022 is the latest token program on the Solana blockchain.
What is SPL Token-2022?
SPL Token-2022 is a token program built on the Solana blockchain. It provides a framework for creating both fungible and non-fungible tokens. With SPL Token-2022, developers can easily create and manage tokens with unique properties and functionalities.
To use Token-2022, you need to specify it as the token program to use when creating or interacting with mint and token accounts. You can also use the Token Metadata program to initialize a Token-2022 mint, create metadata and mint tokens using the Create and Mint instructions. The Token Metadata program also enforces restrictions on the type of extensions that can be present on mint and token accounts based on the Token Standard.
Token Metadata and SPL Token-2022
SPL Token-2022 introduces a standardized approach to Token Metadata on the Solana blockchain. It allows developers to associate metadata with their tokens, making it easier to identify and display token information accurately. This standardization ensures consistency and compatibility across different applications and platforms.
