This Week in Crypto Games: 'Hamster Kombat' and 'Rocky Rabbit' Airdrop Dates, New NFL Rivals Season
Hamster Kombat airdrop date set: Leading tap-to-earn Telegram game Hamster Kombat announced Wednesday via its official channel that it will launch its long-awaited HMSTR token on The Open Network (TON) on September 26 and hold its airdrop for players on the same date.
The token was originally set for a July rollout, but was delayed due to additional planning needed for such a large-scale drop. Hamster Kombat has attracted more than 300 million players since launching this spring, the team said in July, and data from Telegram shows more than 80 million active players over the past month.
But the airdrop announcement came amid two hours-long spurts of downtime for TON last week due to demand over another airdrop—one with a much smaller audience than Hamster Kombat. Can TON handle the Hamster Kombat launch? Developers from both TON and the Hamster Kombat team discussed the challenge with Decrypt's GG
And
Rocky Rabbit too: Hamster Kombat wasn't the only anticipated game to announced airdrop details last week. The rising Telegram game Rocky Rabbit, which twists the Hamster Kombat formula with a fitness theme, plans to drop its own token on TON on September 23.Are they launching before Hamster Kombat to avoid getting lost in the hype? Perhaps. Whatever the case, the RabBitcoin (RBTC) token is another big one for Telegram gamers in September.
