Let& #39;s start with what make Founders some of the most coveted NFTs in the space

1. Their IDs range from 1-100 which are the lowest IDs in CryptoKitties
2. They are Gen-0 cats
3. They possess “overpowered” genes not found in any other Gen-0

Why do people want Founders?

1. To breed the best Kitties in the game
2. Recognition for collecting. Owning a Founder is a status symbol
3. Speculation

Those in the know hunt for S-class Founders. Even within this tier there are differences.

Most Founder owners reject Offers. Sometimes these Offers can exceed $10,000 for their Kitties.
