Chronicle Rarity & Numbering
Learn how Chronicles are numbered and what makes some rarer than others.
Every Chronicle on DaiChronicles.io is unique and identified by a sequential Token ID. While all Chronicles are one-of-one collectibles, some are inherently rarer based on their news category and context.
🔢 Token Numbering
Chronicles are minted with incrementing Token IDs, starting from 1 and increasing with each new Chronicle generated. This ID is:
- Used as the Chronicle’s on-chain identifier
- Displayed in the app and marketplaces
- Immutable and timestamped on mint
Earlier Token IDs may hold historical value for collectors — especially as the platform grows.
🧠Rarity by Category
Each Chronicle is tagged with a news category, such as:
- Politics
- Business
- Economy
- Tech
- Science
- Climate
- Crime
- Entertainment
- Sports
- Religion
Some categories naturally appear less frequently, making them rarer in the long term.
Pro Tip
Categories like "Religion" or "Science" might be low-frequency — ideal for rarity-driven collectors!
🧠Perceived vs. Engineered Rarity
DaiChronicles does not artificially inflate rarity. Instead:
- Rarity emerges from natural frequency
- No artificial "legendary" or "super rare" tiers exist
- The community assigns value based on narrative, cultural timing, and perspective
This keeps the ecosystem organic and democratic.
