The difference that matters
On most chains a royalty is a field: metadata a marketplace may read and may ignore. On EmpoorioChain it is a rule in pallet-nft-royalties, attached at collection or token level and executed by the runtime on every transfer that is a sale. There is no marketplace-level opt-out, because the marketplace does not perform the payment — the transfer does.
Three licensing shapes
Resale share. A percentage to the creator on each secondary sale. Set once; enforced forever.
Recurring licence. pallet-subscription: a periodic payment for continued use — a sample library, a font, a stock catalogue. Cancel and the right lapses.
Time-bounded use. The native counterpart to ERC-4907's rental role, expressed through subscription and escrow: a right that exists between two dates and reverts.
Where creators meet it
- Music:
pallet-music-nftwith batch and lazy minting; a track's royalty is a rule on the token. - Video:
pallet-video-nft; EidoOS's 70 % creator share is the platform-level counterpart. - Art and text:
pallet-emp-nft,pallet-uniques. - Fee discount: a KryptoOS verified-human credential earns up to 50 % off minting through
pallet-creator-studio-fees.
Eoonia's Creator Studio documents the IP & Royalties Studio as one of its 46 protocols, mapped to NftRoyalties.
What the chain does not do
Enforce a licence off chain. A file copied outside the ecosystem is copied; the chain records who holds the right and pays who is owed on chain. That is more than a metadata field and less than DRM, and it is stated as such.
Status
Pallets in runtime 220; fees measured (mint ~0.000075 DMS, 100-item batch 0.0022, lazy claim 0.00011). No royalty has been applied on a real resale on the public testnet, because no creator's work has been resold there. The community this page described gathering at an art fair belonged to another ecosystem; this ecosystem's creator community is, for now, the pallets waiting for it.
