About
After the departure of the female birds, the remaining derps developed incubation technology with the help of outside sources. This technology allowed the all-male derps to create their offspring, the Derplings.
A maximum of 7,500 Derplings were allowed to hatch from the 15,000 total Derp Eggs incubated. They are historically significant on the Cardano blockchain as the first collection minted using multi-sig transactions.
