If you are interested in cryptocurrency gaming, you have probably heard of Hamster Kombat, a play-to-earn game that has exploded in popularity in the past year. Not only has Hamster Kombat attracted over 300 million players, but it also boasts the most-followed YouTube channel in the crypto space by a wide margin, with more than 34 million subscribers. Playing Hamster Kombat amounts to collecting, trading, and doing battle with customized hamster NFTs in a game that requires you to make strategic decisions to win. Very soon, Hamster Kombat will hold an airdrop event, and we want to tell you how to claim your $HMSTR tokens.
What is Hamster Kombat?
The game Hamster Kombat tasks players with sending their cute but brutal hamsters into combat. In a short period of time, the game has amassed millions of users by combining the fun of hamster battles with the even more fun aspect of hamster NFTs. You can trade them! You can upgrade them! You can pit them against one another! And in so doing, you can and will get more immersed into the addictive world of hamster NFTs and Hamster Kombat!
The Hamster Kombat ecosystem is built around the $HMSTR token, the main in-game currency. Players earn $HMSTR by battling, winning tournaments, and doing special challenges. They use the token to purchase, upgrade, and empower their hamster NFTs, encouraging strategic gameplay. Given its utility, there is a solid case to be made for $HMSTR and its potential for value appreciation, especially as it has a couple of exchange listings coming up soon.
Impact of Telegram Founder’s Arrest
The crypto world was recently shaken by the arrest of Telegram’s founder. This incident led to a brief interruption of transaction processing on the Telegram network. The Hamster Kombat platform and others that operate on the Telegram Open Network were affected, with gameplay delays and issues connecting to wallets. All these problems occurred because the TON Network stopped processing transactions at the time. To their credit, the Hamster Kombat team addressed and contained the situation with remarkable efficiency. Overall, the community emerged intact and resilient on the other side.
Lessons from the Notcoin Airdrop
Excitment is building for the upcoming Hamster Kombat airdrop. The buzz around the airdrop is similar to the Notcoin airdrop from earlier this year, which was another huge event in the crypto community that got people talking. The Notcoin airdrop was heralded for good reason, and it contained some valuable lessons that will allow you to gain some insights into what will happen when the Hamster Kombat airdrop occurs.
To participate in the Notcoin airdrop campaign, players had to complete tasks similar to those planned for participating in Hamster Kombat. Tasks for the Hamster Kombat program are meant to engage the community and attract traffic to the platform. Tasks for the Notcoin airdrop worked in the same way—because they were part of a structured reward system that got the community involved and excited.
The airdrop of $HMSTR has been structured as a kind of game, with a heavy focus on doing tasks to earn the airdrop and receiving the airdrop if one’s wallet is connected to the right places at the right times.
Future Roadmap and Upcoming Features
The future seems bright for the Hamster Kombat, and the development team has laid out plans for some serious expansion with season 2. In-game chat and a friends list are on the way, as are guilds—these will be game-changers for social interaction. Gameplay also seems set to evolve in several key areas, with new game modes and new arenas planned. Most exciting, however, is the promise of a DAO and new hamster NFTs, which will bring some unprecedented, if still vaguely described, changes to the gameplay experience. In addition to all this, a number of changes to the game’s economic model are in the works, too, most significantly in a rebalancing of the token’s supply and demand.
Furthermore, the team is establishing partnerships with other blockchain projects and is exploring coordination with other networks to expand the game’s audience. They assert that the game will be as secure as any traditional game and that players should expect a smooth gaming experience. They are also continuing to develop the game in consultation with its community of players.
