# Introduction All koins come from one of the five sacred lineages, which dictates some of their characteristics, primarily their rarity. The main lineage is Tenkai, whose descendants are few and have a better chance of performing in races. It is followed by the Lumine lineage, then the Hatsu, the Maneki, and finally, the Yume lineage. To learn more about these differences, see the [Lineage Threshold](/lineages/lineage-threshold.md) section. The first 18,888 koins form the founding group, the purest koins available. We call them the Genesis and they all have unique characteristics. Before going into more detail, it’s important we get to know more about its origin. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
