Hamster Kombat, the popular game on Telegram, has hit a major snag with its highly anticipated HMSTR token airdrop. What was supposed to be a groundbreaking event in the crypto world now faces significant delays. With 300 million gamers and investors alike are left wondering what’s causing the hold-up and when they can expect to receive their tokens.
Airdrop Postponed?The big HMSTR token airdrop, originally planned for this month, has been postponed. The team explained that the complexity of handling such a large-scale airdrop could potentially overload The Open Network (TON) blockchain. With around 300 million registered users, ensuring a smooth distribution is proving difficult.
Despite these challenges, the team has not provided a new date for the airdrop, leaving participants in the dark about when they will receive their tokens.
Dear CEOs,
Happy to announce we’ve updated the roadmap on our website and released our Whitepaper that showcases the plans we have for the Hamster Ecosystem.
1. We firmly believe that each player contributes to our shared success. To reflect this, we've allocated a whopping…
Despite the delay, the Hamster Kombat team remains committed to making the airdrop a success. They assured users that all registered players would receive their tokens, though the amount each person gets will depend on their participation in various activities. The only mandatory step to receive tokens is to connect a TON wallet to the player’s profile.
Pre-Market Buzz: Exchanges List HMSTR TokensEven without an official airdrop date, the HMSTR token is already generating significant interest in the pre-market. OKX exchange has announced it will list HMSTR tokens for pre-market futures trading, along with other platforms like ByBit, KuCoin, Gate.io, and BitGet. This move shows high demand but also highlights the speculative nature of trading tokens before their official release.
The Hamster Kombat whitepaper indicates that 60% of the HMSTR tokens will be distributed to players, with the remainder allocated to partnerships, market liquidity, and other purposes. The development team has no plans to sell its token allocation, focusing instead on building a sustainable business model.
TapSwap Faces Similar DelaysTapSwap, another tap-to-earn game, is also experiencing delays. It plans to hold a token generation event (TGE) in the third quarter of 2024 but has not set a specific date yet. TapSwap’s founder, Naz Ventura, said they are working hard on delivering the best product and will announce the date once everything is ready.
Tapswap is never straightforward, the TGE is taking years, and we have given up already, i don't even open the mini app again, I've forgotten I have a Tapswap account

Notcoin recently distributed over 80 billion NOT tokens, worth about $1 billion, showcasing the immense potential and interest in this emerging gaming model.
