Genesis Horses – The Bedrock of MetaHoof
1️⃣ What Are Genesis Horses?
Genesis Tokens mark the first-ever horses minted in the MetaHoof universe (Generation G1). As the inaugural bloodlines, they:
- Are unique, one-of-a-kind NFTs launched with our Mainnet Alpha.
- Carry special metadata denoting founding status.
- Unlock exclusive in-game utilities unavailable to later generations.
2️⃣ Scarcity & Total Supply
Genesis Horses are finite by design:
- Total G1 Supply: 22,000 horses will ever exist.
- First Generation Mint: 2,500 horses from the total supply.
Once all 22,000 G1 tokens are minted, no new Genesis Horses will be created.
3️⃣ First Generation Breakdown
From the initial 2,500 Genesis mint:
- Founders Allocation: 535
- Collaboration Pass: 500
- Public Mint: 1,465
This breakdown ensures fair distribution among core community pillars:
- Founders Allocation (535): Reserved for early supporters via Founders Collection Passes, recognizing their vital role in launching MetaHoof.
- Collaboration Pass (500): Represents the one-of-one MetaHoof Bloodline Forge Pass — a super-exclusive NFT that empowers its holder to co-design a new Genesis bloodline, set the mint parameters, and launch 500 Genesis horses in a single drop (no further mints), unlocking full G1 capabilities.
- Public Mint (1,465): Open to the wider community, providing broad access while maintaining exclusivity.
4️⃣ Core Utilities & Benefits
Owning a Genesis Horse delivers powerful advantages:
- Unlimited Breeding
- Breed freely with any other horse, subject only to seasonal windows and cooldowns.
- Founders-Only Event Access
- Exclusive races, tournaments, and community showcases.
5️⃣ Superior Longevity & Performance
Built for endurance—both on-track and in your portfolio:
- Extended Career Span
- More race starts before retirement, and slower performance decay.
- Breeding Resilience
- Higher offspring success rates and stronger baseline traits.
6️⃣ Attribute Baselines
Genesis horses share the same trait categories—speed, endurance, agility, temperament—but start at elite ranges:
| Trait | G1 Range | Later Generations |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 75–95 | 60–90 |
| Endurance | 80–98 | 55–85 |
| Agility | 78–96 | 60–92 |
| Temperament | 70–90 | 60–85 |
Actual values vary by bloodline; this illustrates the G1 advantage.
7️⃣ Genesis Rarity Distribution
All 22,000 G1 tokens follow this rarity split:
| Rarity | % of Total | Approx. Count |
|---|---|---|
| Common | 75% | 16,500 |
| Rare | 20% | 4,400 |
| Legendary | 5% | 1,100 |
8️⃣ How to Acquire Genesis Horses
- Primary Mint: Closed—Genesis tokens sold during Mainnet Alpha.
- Secondary Market: Trade on MetaHoof Marketplace.
- Founders & Collaboration Passes: Early passes include guaranteed G1 slots.
9️⃣ Strategic Tips for Owners
- Breed Early

- Target High-Stakes Races
- Deploy G1 horses where rewards are greatest.
- Leverage the Marketplace

🔟 Future Collection Drops
Beyond the initial 2,500 G1 mint, the remaining 19,500 Genesis Horses will be released in phased windows, each with its own campaign theme and pricing structure:
- Seasonal Campaigns – Different drops tied to major race seasons (e.g. “Spring Stakes”): moderate pricing, open to all.
