The $HMSTR token will be an integral part of the game's ecosystem, enhancing its economy and providing new opportunities for players to earn rewards.Hamster Kombat, the tap-to-win game on Telegram, has announced the launch of its $HMSTR token and its airdrop event, both scheduled for September 26, 2024. After months of speculation and excitement, the game's community is eager to receive rewards for their engagement.Players will be able to earn rewards and interact with the platform in new ways with the launch of the token.Airdrop Details and Community ImpactThe airdrop, also scheduled for September 26, will distribute a significant portion of the $HMSTR tokens to the game's community. According to the project's whitepaper, 60% of the total airdrop supply will be allocated to active players. The remaining 40% will be used to ensure market liquidity, reward stakeholders, and establish ecosystem partnerships.However, specific details regarding the total supply and launch price of the $HMSTR token have not yet been disclosed. With this strategic move, the developers aim to create an ecosystem that benefits both early adopters and new participants.Challenges and DelaysOriginally, the airdrop was scheduled for July but was postponed due to technical difficulties related to token distribution on the blockchain. The team cited the large number of participants and the complexity of ensuring tokens are distributed to real users as the main reasons for the delay.One challenge Hamster Kombat faces is the potential pressure on The Open Network (TON). With millions of users expected to participate in the airdrop, there are concerns that the network may experience bottlenecks similar to those observed during the launch of other popular Telegram-based games.The TON network has already faced issues such as halted block production, reportedly caused by a high volume of DOGS memecoin transactions. This raises questions about its ability to handle the upcoming event smoothly.The delay in the airdrop initially caused a significant drop in active users, with the number falling from 155 million to 87 million in less than a week, according to The Crypto Times.
