Rarity

Rarity

An artist has the option to define features within a collection when minting, which can contribute to creating a scale of rarity. Sometimes the score can be meaningless due to the variety within the collection, and some artists intentionally avoid adding features to let the artwork define itself. Some individual pieces may have very rare chances, but be less pleasing to a collector. There is no silver-bullet approach to collecting; each collection will perform relevant to its own characteristics.

The two main ways to view the rarity of pieces in a collection are: fxhash and fxfam.

Fxhash Rarity Page

Rarity is applied by fxhash as follows (from their mint-guide):

Fxhash automatically computes the rarity of a particular feature by counting the number of occurrences among all the tokens of the collection. Two feature values are considered the same if a strict equality between those returns true.

The fxhash rarity page also allows for the filtering of features. These functions are part of the collections main page, called 'project page' on fxhash. See image below to see how to sort by rarity and filter.

Fxfam Rarity Page

The artist, Zancan, created a rarity tool for his beautiful Garden, Monoliths collection and kindly extended it for use on all fxhash collections. Simply replace XXXX in the link below with the gentk number of the collection you want to view, which is found on the collections main page eg the Garden, Monoliths collections was the 2969th collection released on fxhash, so that is its gentk number.
