The instrument,
clearly explained.

Direct answers about the protocol, the mint, and the permanent record.

LAST UPDATED · 16 JULY 2026
01What is Kingdom Within?+

A precision instrument that converts mapped text into an auditable numerical signature and deterministic geometric mandala. It is also a Base mainnet NFT minting interface for canonical artifacts produced by that protocol.

02Is the mandala random?+

No. The mapped sum determines symmetry, rotation, golden-ratio scale, and hue. Identical normalized text, mapping mode, custom map where applicable, and protocol version produce identical canonical parameters.

03Which mapping modes are available?+

Ancient Hebrew/Aramaic uses the fixed 1–400 MASTER_MAP. Root-60 maps normalized ASCII alphanumeric characters through a sexagesimal matrix. Custom mappings may be inspected and exported, but only protocol-approved modes are eligible for canonical minting.

04What is stored when I mint?+

The canonical SVG and metadata manifest are pinned to public IPFS. The token records the metadata URI, its content hash, protocol version, epoch, and timestamp on Base. Wallet addresses and transactions are public blockchain data.

05What does minting cost?+

The active Epoch price is read directly from the Base contract, plus Base network gas. The contract administrator can set the price for a current or future epoch. Your wallet always shows the transaction value before approval.

06How many NFTs can exist?+

The protocol has no fixed maximum supply. It is organized into named epochs, creating a growing archive instead of a capped edition.

07Are there creator royalties?+

Yes. The contract reports a 7% ERC-2981 royalty for secondary sales. A marketplace must support and honor ERC-2981 for that royalty to be paid; on-chain royalty signaling does not force every marketplace to collect it.

08Can a mint be refunded or reversed?+

Blockchain transactions are normally final. Review the text, geometry, price, network, and wallet address before signing. The Terms and Conditions explain transaction finality and the limited circumstances governed by mandatory law.

09Why do I sign a message before minting?+

The signature authorizes the server to pin the artifact for your wallet. It is not the mint transaction, does not transfer funds, expires quickly, and prevents anonymous abuse of the upload service.

10How do I verify an NFT?+

Open Verify, enter the token ID, and compare its immutable provenance with the IPFS manifest. Every mint appears in the collection, while the Verified badge is reserved for manifests whose exact bytes match the on-chain content hash.

11Why is my NFT not visible in the collection yet?+

The collection waits five Base blocks before indexing a mint to reduce reorganization risk. After those confirmations, every MandalaMinted event appears even if an IPFS gateway is temporarily unavailable.

12Is a Malkuta NFT an investment?+

No promise of value, liquidity, appreciation, income, or utility is made. Acquire only for the artifact, provenance, and protocol participation, and only if you can bear a total loss of the purchase price.
