About The Nonconformist Ducks
The Nonconformist Ducks is an NFT (non-fungible token) project that offers a wide range of Duck PFPs with different attributes and abilities. These ducks can be collected and used to participate in various activities within the ecosystem, such as exploring the lore, earning rewards, and participating in social activities. The project aims to provide a unique and engaging experience for its community, while also ensuring its long-term sustainability through creative solutions that reduce the overall supply of ducks.
Take a minute to look through these documents from the team and feel free to share these on Social Media to let others know about The Nonconformist Ducks:

$QUACKS
If you own any Nonconformist Ducks, they are automatically accruing $QUACKS.
As of the release of this newsletter, $QUACKS cannot be transferred to a wallet and are tied to the duck. This means that if you sell your duck, the accumulated $QUACKS will also be transferred to the new owner.
The generation of $QUACKS began on January 6, 2023.

Join the Pond Without Fighting in The Eternal War
The Nonconformist Ducks community offers ways to participate without playing "The Eternal War".
The community offers various activities outside of ‘The Eternal War’, so you can still get involved and be part of this amazing and supportive community. You can choose a duck from different collections like OG, Hell, 2nd Gen, Signature Collection, or Upside Ducks. Certain activities may require specific traits, so keep that in mind as you select your duck.
Join in on the weekly Duck Races every Wednesday night, open to all duck owners who meet the requirements.
Watch January’s Final along with all the details on how to enter your duck:
Do you love the iconic Jason Voorhees hockey mask from the "Friday the 13th" horror film? If you're a fan, make sure to snag a duck from the OG or Hell collection with a Jason Mask. Every Friday the 13th, you'll have the chance to compete for the highly coveted Golden Jason Duck Mask.

Pond Academy is designed to be the long-term, sustainable source of external revenue for The Nonconformist Ducks.
You do not need a Duck to join Pond Academy!
Pond Academy is a platform that helps content creators in Web3 generate alternative income by recommending their favorite projects on Twitter. Studies show that people are more likely to be influenced by those in their close circles and that smaller audiences often have higher engagement. Pond Academy aims to decentralize influence by training people to create impactful content and monetize their recommendations of Web3 projects through the platform.
To join the academy, mint a pass and gain access to learn from professionals while earning non-traditional income for sharing your thoughts on Twitter.
Pond academy is still minting.
There will be a total of 8,709 passes.

Cost: 0.03 eth + gas fees
