The developers of Hamster Kombat expected the players to leave and intend to attract participants of the first season, as well as new users. This is reported by Cointelegraph with reference to a statement by a representative of the project team.
In the summer of 2024, the tapalka audience reached 300 million, but after an unsuccessful, according to users, aidrop, the project lost 260 million players. The price of the $HMSTR
token, which was at $0.011 on the day of listing on September 26, subsequently collapsed to $0.002254. After the fall, it began to recover against the background of bitcoin's growth to new historical highs.
The project team stated that the drop in activity is "expected." Interest in the game "grows and decreases."
"Since our project has seasons, this is quite expected. We are currently in the interim period and preparing for the launch of the second season. Even now, our MAU figure remains above 30 million, which indicates sustained interest," said a representative of Hamster Kombat.
In October, the developers of Hamster Kombat commented on the collapse of the HMSTR price by the dominance of supply over demand.
The team will strive to "resume interaction" with the participants of the first season, while attracting new players.
"Now we have more than 11 million token holders, which allows us to compete with the leading blockchains. We plan to increase the number of HMSTR owners and enter new markets," the project representative said.
The project "managed to save the main group" of players, amounting to 30 million users, who are "actively involved in the gameplay" after the first aidrop, the source said.
