Setup

Import the SDK and create a wallet: 
import { MnemonicIdentity, Wallet } from '@arkade-os/sdk'

const identity = MnemonicIdentity.fromMnemonic("abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon about")

const wallet = await Wallet.create({
  identity,
  arkServerUrl: 'https://arkade.computer',
})

​
Read Asset Metadata

Use getAssetDetails to retrieve the metadata attached to an asset at issuance time: 
const { assetId } = await wallet.assetManager.issue({
  amount: 100_000_000, // [100.000000]
  metadata: {
    name: 'Tether USD',
    ticker: 'USD₮',
    decimals: 6,
    icon: 'https://tether.to/images/logoMarkGreen.svg',
  },
})

const { metadata } = await wallet.assetManager.getAssetDetails(assetId)

console.log(metadata)
// { name: 'Tether USD', ticker: 'USD₮', decimals: 6, icon: 'https://tether.to/images/logoMarkGreen.svg' }
Response shape: 
type AssetMetadata = Partial<{
  name: string;           // human-readable asset name
  ticker: string;         // short symbol (e.g. "USD₮")
  decimals: number;       // decimal places
  icon: string;           // url to an image for display
}> & Record<string, unknown>;
Metadata is immutable and cannot be changed after issuance. See Asset Metadata for how it’s committed onchain.
