Hamster Kombat Airdrop is Going Live: Launch Date, Eligibility & Key Features

Hamster Kombat, the popular telegram game, is getting launched on cryptocurrency exchanges this month after bagging heavy demand among players. More importantly, this listing will come with one of the biggest Airdrops of 2024, where millions of players will receive the HMSTR tokens. However, the team has set some interesting eligibility criteria, limiting millions of users from the airdrop.

This HMSTR Airdrop was a much-awaited event as the users had been playing the game for months. Here, the users spent hours and months continuously tapping to earn the highest tokens. With this high popularity, many anticipate the HMSTR token price to follow the hype, making heavy profits for its holders. Whether that happens or not is the discussion of the feature. For now, the official team has revealed the key details of this airdrop.

Hamster Kombat Airdrop Launch Date & Eligibility

This tap-to-earn has gained huge popularity for its simplicity and rewards features, bagging more than 300 million users on the game in just a few months. However, there were many delays in the token launch, keeping the investors on their toes after they had put months into playing and collecting these game coins. Finally, the HMSTR token is getting listed on popular crypto exchanges, including Binance, on September 26. More importantly, the Hamster Kombat Airdrop will also go live on the same day to distribute 60B tokens.

The official team has shared the eligibility snapshots with each player, which has also become controversial, leading to the HMSTR hashtag trending on X. The main reason behind this is the introduction of an anti-cheating mechanism. And with that, the team analyzed every player’s performance and banned the cheaters from the airdrop.

Because of the game’s simple tap-to-earn feature, where the number of taps made people earn coins, many users have used AI and physical tools like massagers to increase the tapping speed. However, there was no prohibition or rules regarding this, so hundreds of users have come to X, showing disappointment with sudden changes, costing their month-long efforts to turn into nothing.

Key Features You Should Not Miss

The Hamster Kombat team is launching the HMSTR token with an initial supply of 100 Billion. More importantly, 75% of that is allocated to the community members. The remaining 15% is on hold for the next airdrop, which will happen after the launch of season 2.

All the game player have been already informed of their eligibility with a snapshot curated with the anti-cheating mechanism. It has banned 2.3M users from the HMSTR airdrop, leaving 131M eligible out of the 300M users.  However, even the eligible candidates would not receive 100% of their allocation, disappointing many. However, this is in an attempt to prevent a market crash.

The Hamster Kombat is releasing only 88.75% of the player’s token, considering a ten-month vesting period. The remaining 11.25% will be released next year in June/July. Moreover, another controversial aspect is that micro-influencers and referral providers are prioritized in the airdrop, which is unfair to the rest of the players.

Final Thoughts

After multiple delays, the Hamster Kombat airdrop is finally going live on September 26. Here, 131 Million users will receive 60 Billion HMSTR tokens based on their gaming activities. However, this user count is after banning 2.3 Million users based on an anti-cheating mechanism. Interestingly, the Hamster Kombat team has revealed an allocation of 75% for the airdrop from the 100 Billion supply. And the upcoming second season will airdrop the remaining 15%.
