Hey Steemians!

If you’ve ever played a life simulation game, you know that one of the absolute best parts is passing traits down through generations to see what kind of unique, rare creatures you can create. SteemBiota takes this experience to a whole new level by bringing digital pet breeding directly onto the Steem blockchain!

How Breeding Works in SteemBiota

In SteemBiota, every creature possesses a deterministic 10-gene genome that defines everything about them—their genus, sex, body shape, tail style, ear type, fur texture, and color palette. When you breed two creatures, their offspring inherit a genetic blend of both parents, with a dash of natural mutation added in!

To get started with breeding, a few key conditions must be met:

Opposite Sex & Same Genus: Breeding requires two creatures of the same genus (like two Vyrex) and opposite sexes.

Fertility Window: Both parents must be within their active fertility window. The creature detail page even displays a bright 🌸 Fertile Now badge so you never miss the right moment.

The Kinship System: To prevent same-bloodline farming and keep the ecosystem healthy, SteemBiota automatically performs an on-chain kinship check to ensure the candidate pair doesn't share recent common ancestors.

Expand Your Lineage with the Matchmaker

Don't own a compatible pair? No problem! The dApp features a built-in Matchmaker tool. It scans recent blockchain posts to find compatible, fertile partners of the same genus. You can easily browse candidate cards, verify genetic safety, and request a breeding permit from another user!

Best of all, when your new offspring hatches, you might trigger a Speciation event—creating a brand-new genus branch that earns you extra XP and climbs you up the global leaderboard ranks!

Permanent Memories on the Blockchain

Because SteemBiota is built client-side on top of Steem, every birth, parent link, and genetic trait is stored permanently on-chain. The blockchain acts as a living, decentralized fossil record for your pet's entire family tree. Even if you transfer an offspring to another player down the line, its ancestral lineage back to its original founder remains completely intact.
