Hamster Kombat, a viral Telegram based tap-to-earn game, planned to launch its token on The Open Network (TON) in July. With only two days left in the month, the team is still finalizing the airdrop deployment. The game has gained massive popularity, amassing over 250 million players. 

Current Status of the Token Generation Event

The Hamster Kombat website still notes a July target for the token generation event (TGE). However, developers shared a tweet on Monday suggesting that the token debut is unlikely to happen before the month ends. The team is working hard to make the airdrop happen but acknowledges the complexity of the task. They emphasize the need for a smooth process to avoid network overload.

Hamster Kombat is one of the biggest projects in the industry. The team is working with the TON blockchain team to develop an efficient technical solution for the airdrop. They aim to ensure that every participant receives their tokens without issues. The complexity and scale of the project present significant challenges.

OKX joins other exchanges like Bybit, KuCoin, Bitget, and Gate.io in enabling pre-market trading for the token. Pre-market trading allows crypto users to bet on the eventual price of the token ahead of the TGE. However, the conversion rate from in-game coins to on-chain tokens is not yet announced, making this type of trading risky.

Overview of Hamster Kombat Game

Hamster Kombat is built within the Telegram messaging platform. Players earn in-game coins by tapping on a cartoonish hamster and investing their coins in upgrades for a fictional crypto exchange. The game's simple yet engaging mechanics have attracted a massive player base.

Government officials have criticized Hamster Kombat despite its widespread appeal. The quick expansion of the game and the impending token launch have garnered a lot of interest. Similar to the Telegram game Notcoin, Hamster Kombat intends to introduce a token on TON and provide participants with tokens through an airdrop claim.

Launched in May, Notcoin's NOT token became the most valuable gaming token launch of 2024 based on market capitalization. With the introduction of its token, Hamster Kombat hopes to take a similar route. The goal of the game's makers is to launch the game successfully and profit from its popularity.

The success of Hamster Kombat's token launch will depend on the team's ability to address technical challenges and ensure a smooth airdrop process. The collaboration with the TON blockchain team is crucial for developing a robust solution. The outcome of this launch will have a significant impact on the game's future and its position in the market.

Final Thoughts

The delay in Hamster Kombat’s airdrop highlights the challenges of large-scale token launches. While the developers work on a technical solution, the game continues to attract significant attention from players and exchanges. The upcoming pre-market futures trading adds another layer of anticipation for the HMSTR token launch.
