Merging SqueeksLink to this section
TL;DRLink to this section
- A merge turns two Squeeks of the same level into one Squeek a level higher.
- You choose which one survives; the other is burned permanently.
- The survivor keeps both Squeeks' rewards, and its new power starts earning next round.
What do you keep, and what do you lose?Link to this section
You choose the survivor, which keeps its token ID and image. The other Squeek, the donor, is burned permanently. The survivor takes both Squeeks' unclaimed rewards.
Before you mergeLink to this section
You need to own both Squeeks. Each must be at the same level, below the highest level, with no scheduled power change, and past its merge cooldown. Check which Squeek you're keeping before you sign.
What does a merge do to your share?Link to this section
Until the next round, the survivor earns with both Squeeks' combined power. From then on it earns with its new level's power, which is more than the two combined.
When can the survivor merge again?Link to this section
Once its new power is active and the cooldown for its new level has passed.
What if the transaction fails?Link to this section
Nothing changes: both Squeeks stay as they were. A failed transaction can still cost a network fee.
