The long-awaited airdrop date for Hamster Kombat has finally been revealed, much to the excitement of the community after months of anticipation. Initially delayed due to technical issues, the airdrop is now set for September 26th, 2024. However, this delay has significantly impacted the game's popularity, with the number of active players dropping from 155 million to 80.7 million by late August.
Although the $HMSTR token has been trading on exchanges like Bybit and KuCoin for over a month, the uncertainty surrounding the token generation event (TGE) and the airdrop caused many players to leave the game. The recent announcement on Hamster Kombat's X (formerly Twitter) account has provided some relief, but concerns linger that the date might be pushed back again.
Specific details about the airdrop, such as the number of recipients and the total $HMSTR token supply, remain unclear. The project has assured that 60% of the token supply will be allocated to the community, with the remaining 40% reserved for market liquidity. However, the launch price and other details are still unknown.
While the announcement has sparked some optimism, the future of Hamster Kombat remains uncertain, especially given the previous delays and ongoing questions about the game's direction and the involvement of venture capitalists.
