Hamster Kombat, the popular tap-to-earn Telegram game, has officially announced the launch of its highly anticipated HMSTR token on The Open Network (TON), set for September 26, 2024. The launch will coincide with an airdrop for players, both occurring on the same date.
Initially planned for a July rollout, the token launch and airdrop was delayed due to additional planning required for such a large-scale distribution. Since its release earlier this year, Hamster Kombat has gained significant traction, attracting over 300 million players in just a few months. According to the game developers, the game has also seen more than 80 million active players in the past month alone, underlining its growing influence within the Telegram gaming community.
Key Details on the Airdrop and Participation
The airdrop campaign kicked off on June 8, 2024, with the first task requiring players to link their TON wallets to the game. This step is crucial for participants to qualify for the airdrop. The process involves connecting either a TON @Wallet or Tonkeeper Wallet to the Hamster Kombat bot on Telegram. Players must follow a series of steps, including opening the bot, navigating to the airdrop tab, and verifying the connection to their chosen wallet.
Hamster Kombat updated its Telegram mini app on August 8, 2024, to outline the criteria for earning allocation points in the $HMSTR token airdrop. The airdrop, potentially the largest in crypto history, will distribute tokens to over 300 million users based on their engagement and activities within the game. Key eligibility criteria include completing daily tasks, referring friends, achieving milestones, maintaining a Telegram subscription, and collecting golden keys.
$HMSTR Token Distribution and Market Opportunities
The Hamster Kombat team plans to allocate 60% of the total HMSTR token supply for distribution among the game’s players, with the remaining 40% set aside for market liquidity, ecosystem partnerships, grants, and squad rewards. KuCoin has also announced that it will list the HMSTR token in pre-market trading, allowing users to trade HMSTR before it becomes available on the spot market.
Players can boost their airdrop potential by staying active, participating in daily challenges, inviting friends, and engaging with special events. Strategies like completing daily ciphers, earning combo cards, and solving mini-game puzzles are all ways to accumulate more in-game currency and increase the likelihood of receiving a larger share of the airdrop.
Conclusion
The Hamster Kombat token launch and airdrop mark a significant milestone for the game and its community. By linking their TON wallets, players can prepare to maximize their in-game earnings and take full advantage of the airdrop rewards. As the launch date approaches, Hamster Kombat remains a focal point of interest within the crypto and gaming communities, poised to make a substantial impact on The Open Network ecosystem.
