  • Hamster Kombat, Telegram’s widely known tap-to-earn game, officially announced its long-awaited airdrop date of September 26, 2024.
  • Following the team’s record track, the number of delays has left players and community members skeptical and unsure whether to trust the new set date.

Hamster Kombat, Telegram’s widely known tap-to-earn game, has now announced an official date for its long-awaited airdrop. Announcing this positive development to its 12.6 million followers on the X platform, the team is all set to launch its $HMSTR token on The Open Network on September 26, 2024.

After three months of indefinite expectation, the journey to this announcement has been anything but smooth. The Hamster token generation event and the subsequent airdrop have faced numerous postponements, which have, therefore, significantly affected the game’s player base. 

Once firmly held by the game, the crown is slipping from its grasp. Hamster was once celebrated as the fastest-growing digital service when it recorded a whopping 100 million monthly users in just 73 days. As of August 28th, monthly active users have decreased by more than 50%. The number of monthly active players has plummeted to 80.7 million, down from a peak of 155 million earlier this year. This contradicts the 300 million players initially projected in the game’s whitepaper.

The lack of transparency and ongoing delays caused many players to lose interest and explore other gaming options, leading to a sharp decline in the community’s overall engagement.

The delay has also affected the  $HMSTR token, which has been trading on major crypto exchanges like KuCoin, Bybit, and OKX for over a month without a clear launch date for the airdrop. Early this month, Binance, the largest crypto exchange, hinted at listing it for spot trading. By joining the elites, the listing will significantly enhance the token’s exposure, given that Binance has a user base of 200 million globally. 

This news has been met with a cautious but optimistic outlook. The Hamster community is scared that this date could be postponed again. Following the team’s record track, the number of delays has left players and community members skeptical and unsure whether to trust the new set date. 

Despite the announcement, community members are shrouded in mystery. As we earlier reported, the game purposely refused venture capital (VC) funding, instead allocating 60% of the HMSTR token to its players. There is lingering skepticism among members about how many users will receive the airdrop, though they promised it would be “the biggest ever.” 

Additionally, the full tokenomics plan is still pending, leaving players in the dark about crucial aspects like the total supply of $HMSTR tokens and their launch price. According to the whitepaper, 60% of the token supply is intended for the community, with the remaining 40% reserved for market liquidity. However, the team has not yet shared any official information.
