EGG Token
To begin playing Waves Ducks, first you will need to get some EGG tokens. There are two ways to acquire EGG tokens:
- Get EGGS for free: Sign-up for a Waves account and join the official Waves Ducks Telegram to participate in community events and receive free EGG tokens.
- Swap WAVES for EGGs: You will have to purchase some Waves and then swap them for EGG tokens on swop.fi.
Earn Passive Income
You can farm EGGs by acquiring a “perch” for 1 EGG through the game’s My Farm section. Once a matching duck is put on the perch, it will start to produce EGGs. A counter below will display the number of EGGs produced.
Over 1500 farms have been created since May. Farm owners received more than 287% APY on their investments. To allow everyone to benefit from the farming feature, Waves Ducks launched a system of collective farms where you can start making a passive income with as little as 0.01 EGG.
Collective farms are managed by trustworthy people in the community. Players can buy shares in farms using their EGG tokens. Managers use the funding to build a farm, buy ducks, build perches, etc. Income from the farm is distributed to managers and shareholders.
With collective farming, Waves Ducks annual income can reach over 300% as more investors get on board.
Waves Ducks NFTs
Each duck NFT has its own rarity that is determined by its genotype consisting of 8 letters. A duck’s value depends on its rarity, so the higher the rarity, the higher the farming rewards it can yield.
The first 8 letters are responsible for the duck’s appearance:
- А – elon
- B – satoshi
- C – doge
- D – bogdanoff
- E – chad
- F – harold
Example: a combination of letters containing “A” might have its head from Elon, “B” might give eyebrows of Satoshi, and so on.
The first letter after the dash determines duck’s generation:
- H – hero
- I – ideal
- K – knight
- L – lord
- M – magical
A newly born duck will have the lowest generation G. Breeding two ducks of a lower level of rarity will create a duck with a higher rarity. But breeding two ducks of a higher level of rarity is not allowed. Also, you can only breed a duck once, after which they become “sterile”.
The second letter after the dash would determine the duck’s background color:
- R – stands for red
- Y – for yellow
- G – for green
- B – for blue
Background colors have a significance because it has to match with the color of perch for successful farming.
