Regardless of the rarity level, each NFT has an NRI value (NFT Rarity Index). All 2,920 NFTs are unique in their own way. More details in the "Understand the rarity system" section.
What does NRI (NFT Rarity Index) mean and how does it work?
It is metric that attempts to determine the odds of your NFT having its exact traits. That is a difficult metric to measure. After all, every NFT in this collection is one of a kind. The percent of NFTs that have a particular trait is computed. The probability is converted into a ranked percentage. If an NFT can obtain the elusive 100% NRI score, they are likely to sell for a significantly higher price. In fact, those with an NRI of more than 99% or less than 1% are highly sought-after. This is due to the claim that NRI works on a bell curve. In other words, the rarest trait combinations would be both the top and bottom few percent, while commons would appear in the 30-70% range.
