# Genesis 116

Genesis is Stockmon’s original fixed collection: **116 visible creatures**, ordered as 100 Hybrids followed by 16 Pures.

## What makes a Genesis NFT different?

An NFT is a unique token recorded on a blockchain. For a Genesis Stockmon, the token ID connects four things:

1. **Creature identity** — its final art, name, and number.
2. **Permanent Stock DNA** — the ordered ticker weights assigned to that creature.
3. **Onchain ownership** — the wallet that currently owns the NFT.
4. **Sealed protocol accounting** — the Feed allocations and settled Stock Token units recorded for that token ID while it remains living.

The art is not a detachable skin placed on top of a generic token. A creature’s dominant lineage controls its species, silhouette, skull, materials, color relationships, energy, and personality; secondary lineages transform connected anatomical systems.

## Hybrids and Pures

| Type   | Supply | DNA pattern                | Identity                                                             |
| ------ | -----: | -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Hybrid |    100 | Multiple weighted lineages | One dominant lineage plus anatomical influence from secondary stocks |
| Pure   |     16 | One lineage at 100%        | One champion for each Genesis ticker                                 |

The collection supply stays fixed at 116. A burned Genesis ID is extinct and cannot be reminted.

Future Aetheryn descendants live in a separate collection and never enlarge or renumber Genesis. Likewise, Aetheryn’s 196-lineage identity registry describes DNA ingredients—not Genesis supply.

## No random reveal

You choose the exact token you can already see. Before a mint or Marketplace action, the Stockmon app shows:

* the collection and token ID;
* the creature art and name;
* its permanent DNA;
* the current owner or availability state;
* the exact network and price or “free mint + gas” terms; and
* whether the action is simulated, testnet, or live.

{% hint style="info" %}
Company names and ticker lineages are creative and allocation descriptors. They do not imply sponsorship, affiliation, brokerage service, company equity, or a promise that a Stock Token route will always be available.
{% endhint %}

## Living, owned, and extinct

An available unminted Genesis ID and an owned non-burned ID are both considered **living** for Feed allocation. Minting or transferring does not reset the creature’s basket.

```
AVAILABLE UNMINTED → OWNED LIVING → BURNED WITH CLAIMS → BURNED EXTINCT
```

The burn transition is one-way. Read [The NFT lifecycle](/stockmon/nft-lifecycle.md) before considering redemption.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://raretyperesearch.gitbook.io/stockmon/genesis-116.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
