You may have come across this cute little fella in your telegram feeds.
. . .
If you were wondering, he’s the avatar for the internet’s latest viral game, Hamster Kombat. Hamster Kombat is an online, cryptocurrency earring game that has taken the crypto world by storm. Since its launch in March 2024, the game has attracted over 100 million players. The hype mainly comes from the game’s ‘tap to earn’ gameplay, which is similar to that of NotCoin, another viral crypto game. In Hamster Kombat, what you earn is a cryptocurrency called HMSTR or Hamster Coin.
How to Play Hamster Kombat
Players assume the role of a hamster CEO who manages a virtual cryptocurrency exchange. The goal is to grow the exchange by earning coins and using them to purchase upgrades. What’s the player supposed to do? It’s quite simple; tapping. Players tap on a digital hamster to mine coins. And that;’s about it, mostly. Of course, users can also purchase boosts which can enhance their tapping speed and help them mine more coins. They can then use the coins they earn to purchase various upgrades, which will enhance their earning potential. One of the most interesting from these upgrades is the Joe Rogan Podcast card. It’s not quite clear if the podcast is affiliated with the game, but users can purchase the card (which is priced at 1,000,000 Hamster Coin). The card is said to increase your exchange’s publicity, thereby increasing your earning potential.
Hamster Kombat is based on Telegram. Its impressive growth is yet to be stopped. By early July, Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, claimed that Hamster Kombat had attracted more than 239 million players, with millions more reportedly joining daily. There are many factors for the game’s popularity. One factor is the popularity of NotCoin. Hamster Kombat emerged in the wake of Notcoin, another Telegram-based crypto game that gained significant traction. The success of Notcoin's airdrop likely fueled interest in Hamster Kombat, as players sought new opportunities to participate in similar projects with potential token rewards. But the most important factor is the anticipation of the Hamster Coin airdrop.
Hamster Coin
As of right now, Hamster Coin is only a usable currency within the game. Not for long, however. Hamster Coin is expected to officially launch sometime in July 2024. This means that players can trade their Hamster Coin as an official currency in the cryptocurrency market. Currently, the pre-market trading price for Hamster Coin is estimated between $0.001 and $0.01, which is quite significant. Of course, this price isn’t final, and the official market price might become higher or lower. Regardless, players have a chance to earn actual money through playing the game.
So how do you get a slice of this hot pie? It’s quite simple. You go to telegram and search for the official Hamster Kombat bot (which has a verified mark next to it). You then start playing the game and accumulate Hamster Coins. You then link a TON wallet to the Hamster Kombat game on Telegram through the airdrop tab in the bot. Once the airdrop launches, you’re ready to earn.
Sounds simple enough, right? However, given the app's immense popularity and the ongoing hype, interest might wane over time, as has happened with many cryptocurrency schemes. Nevertheless, for now, Hamster Kombat presents an intriguing earning potential. So, if you're curious and willing to “tap” into this trend, give it a try.
