Nearly 130 million Hamster Kombat players were eligible to claim the HMSTR token airdrop on The Open Network (TON) late last month, and many of those players likely took their bounty to a self-custody wallet or centralized exchange. But those who haven’t moved the tokens yet could secure a bonus for the next in-game season.

In an announcement Tuesday, the developers of Telegram’s biggest crypto game to date said that airdrop recipients who keep their tokens within the game will earn a bonus when the planned second season begins.

“If you decide to keep your tokens instead of withdrawing them, you’ll be (very) pleasantly surprised!” the announcement reads. “Season 2 will bring a boost to the token holders!”
