What are Krap Eggs and what is their utility? Why does my Krap Chicken NFT lay an egg token?
Every Krap Chicken NFT has an additional function and surprise. It will lay "eggs" or generate new tokens daily known as $KRAPEGG tokens which are ERC-20 tokens. The more Krap Egg tokens you have, the more perks you can avail from the Krapopolis show and NFT markeplace. Krap Egg tokens are not transferrable. So, for the number of days you own a Krap Chicken NFT, you will be earning Krap Egg tokens daily. After you sell or transfer your Krap Chicken NFTs to another owner or another wallet, you will no longer earn the $krapegg tokens. However, all your krapegg token earnings upto that point will remain in your wallet, and you can use them for buying or unlocking hidden perks or rewards.
