What is DERP

Powering the Derp ecosystem

Powering the Derp Ecosystem

DERP is the fungible utility token that powers the Derp Birds universe. Think of it like an arcade token, it’s earned through in-game activity and spent across the ecosystem to access deeper layers of gameplay, upgrades, and collectibles.

While users may interact with DERP in many ways, it’s important to understand that DERP is not directly earned through gameplay or staking. Instead, users earn Derp Dollars (DD), a centralised point system used to level up accounts. As players accumulate DD, they may choose to convert it to DERP at the Derp Exchange.

How to Earn DERP

Although DERP itself isn't rewarded directly, players can obtain it by earning DD through various in-game and ecosystem activities, then converting their DD to DERP.

Ways to earn DD (which can then be exchanged for DERP):

• Passive Staking Earn DD by staking your Derp NFTs over time.

• Fortifying Outposts Participate in the Gold Rush and fortify yours or someone else's outposts.

• Floor Bounties Earn DD for helping keep the floor price stable or above target.

• Unlocking Achievements Complete in-game objectives and milestones to collect DD rewards.
