Hamster Kombat launched its mini app early this year, but after one or two months, they really gained momentum and in the next three months attracted 350 million users.
▎MISTAKES
- They initially promised that PPH would be the biggest criteria but later shifted to Keys. To collect Keys users must play the Web 2 game after downloading it from the Play Store or App Store through which HAMSTER KOMBAT made money
- Users started playing games to collect Keys 🔑 wasted too much time. But ultimately Hamster Kombat distributed everything to referrals (invites). They've even limited achievements to 100 referrals but not implemented it 🤐
- They implemented vesting for tokens, which was never part of their original plan and was not officially announced.
▎BENEFICIARIES
- Telegram gained millions of users.
- The TON blockchain received increased visibility.
- Other mini apps enjoyed the hype.
- Some influencers and YouTubers gained community by promising guaranteed profits in lakhs.
- BIG exchanges attracted millions of users.
▎Who is at a Loss?
- Web 2 users who entered the crypto market without understanding the basics and fell for the fake profit promises made by YouTubers/influencers.
- Innocent farmers who believed in the Hamster Kombat PPH/Key criteria but the team cheated.
▎Hypocrisy of Influencers/YouTubers
- There are numerous videos of YouTubers guaranteeing ₹ lakhs in airdrops from $HMSTR but now blaming the Hamster Kombat team while pretending to support the community.
The reality was clear from the moment they reached 300 million users ! it was impossible to airdrop $1000 to everyone. When I raised this point 🤐 I was trolled by those same influencers.
If they really care the community 📌 then
- Why weren't they raising their voices against Pixelverse wrongdoing?
- Why weren't they speaking out against Catizen criteria change ?
They don’t care about the community. But Now that the community has recognized their true nature. Now, they're pretending to support the community to save themselves.
▎Conclusion
This was a reality check that expectations should be based on practical calculations, not on the fake calculation presented by farzi influencers.
• Also some influencers and YouTubers are laughing at the community 🤐 but they don't have the guts to ask the team about their broken promises.
The majority of the $HMSTR community is new, so they believed the misleading claims from fake influencers, that is their mistake, but it is also true that the Hamster Kombat team has cheated the community.
