Kadena has seen so much growth since its inception in 2016. After months of building, teams are finally beginning to launch their projects on the blockchain, all for the community to enjoy. It really is proving to be a Kadena NFT summer. Let’s take a look at some of the NFT projects that are looking to shape the community.

Meet Babena, a collection of 2500 NFTS building Kadena and its ecosystem. The team at Babena have been very active in creating PACT documentation for the community and aspiring builders. They are currently minting their second round of NFTs on their own marketplace on chain 3 at babena.art. Soon, an affiliate project, Kadena Monster Punks will also be launching on their marketplace as well.
