# Stock DNA

Stock DNA is the permanent recipe behind every Genesis creature. It has two jobs:

* **Visual identity:** the weights guide species anatomy, materials, energy, color relationships, armor construction, and personality.
* **Vault allocation:** the same weights divide that creature’s equal share of each Feed round across its lineages.

![An illustrative equal living share divided into 60 percent SPY, 25 percent NVDA, and 15 percent AAPL by permanent Stock DNA](https://164480815-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0r3IgolbVPO14VcUCkOG%2Fuploads%2FLuYsT2Bwu3sY02IZtvQO%2Fdna-allocation-v2.svg?alt=media)

## Equal first, DNA second

Every living Genesis ID receives equal WETH value before DNA is applied.

For an illustrative $100 living share:

| DNA  | Weight | Illustrative allocation |
| ---- | -----: | ----------------------: |
| SPY  |    60% |                     $60 |
| NVDA |    25% |                     $25 |
| AAPL |    15% |                     $15 |

The values above explain the recipe; they are not a live quote or balance. Vault accounting uses integer asset atoms rather than floating-point dollars.

## The dominant lineage

For a Hybrid, the dominant lineage controls most of the creature’s identity—normally 50–70%—while secondary lineages transform specific connected anatomical systems.

Stockmon is creature-first. Even without a logo, each lineage stays recognizable through anatomy, silhouette, eyes, materials, armor, colors, and energy.

## DNA does not change with price

DNA weights are fixed. Market movement can change the value of assets already accumulated, but it does not rewrite the recipe or rebalance the creature into a different identity.

## DNA follows the token

A normal NFT transfer changes the owner, not the token ID. The permanent DNA and sealed living basket remain attached to that ID.

{% hint style="warning" %}
DNA does not force every ticker to settle in every round. When a route is unavailable or unsafe, the assigned WETH stays pending for that token ID and lineage.
{% endhint %}

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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/stock-dna.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.
