The well-known game Hamster Kombat from the Telegram ecosystem is finally about to land on the crypto market with the imminent launch of the HMSTR token on major exchanges, while users are trying to figure out if buying at the listing will turn out to be a wise investment.

In this article we provide an overview of the latest important updates of the project, and then move on to the issue of prices.

All the details below.

Hamster Kombat, the revolutionary Telegram game, is about to launch its own crypto HMSTR

Hamster Kombat, the most famous game in the Telegram world, is about to debut in the crypto investment markets with the listing of HMSTR expected on September 26.

The team of the project based on the TON network recently made the date public on X, subsequently announcing the support of the most important exchanges in the sector.

In particular, exchanges like Binance, Bybit, Okx, Bitget and Bitfinex are ready to welcome the TGE of the new cryptocurrency.

The influx of users in the first days of trading could be particularly significant, given the possibility of capitalizing on an investment at zero cost.

Hamster Kombat has indeed offered an airdrop campaign to its players, giving them the opportunity to earn free points that will then be converted into the HMSTR crypto.

The economic incentive has driven the popularity of the game, so much so that it has brought the total number of users above the threshold of 300 million units.

Consider that just in the last month it has attracted a whopping 84.6 million active players, ranking first among the most used dapps on Telegram.

Since the first day, over 55 million non-custodial wallets have been connected to the platform linked to the TON blockchain.

According to the site Coingabbar, the majority of Hamster Kombat users reside in India, Russia, Indonesia, Nigeria, Brazil, Philippines, and Vietnam.

A good part of these numbers can be attributed to the presence of bot and sybil participations sybil. It is possible that only a portion of those who interacted with the game will receive the tokens as a gift through airdrop, discarding a significant slice of the total.

In any case, the presence of a large community with 13.3 million followers on Twitter suggests that over time other users might take part in the investment.

Binance announces a new launchpool on Hamster Kombat (HMSTR): here’s how it works

On the occasion of the debut of the Hamster Kombat token, the crypto exchange Binance launched an early investment program known as “launchpool”.

All users of the cryptocurrency exchange platform can lock their BNB and FDUSD to receive a share of the HMSTR airdrop.

The promotion will start on September 23 and will last for 3 days, until the TGE and the listing of the game coin.

In parallel, the incentives for Hamster Kombat will also be launched in the new “Super Earn” section with special APRs scheduled for 7 consecutive days.

To participate in the launchpool investment, Binance customers can choose to stake BNB and FDUSD without a deposit requirement.

The exchange offers a base of rewards equal to 3,000,000,000 tokens (3.00% of the total supply).

Each user will have a hard cap equal to 3,541,666.66 HMSTR for BNB stakers and 625,000 HMSTR for FDUSD stakers, avoiding the excessive presence of whales.

On September 26 at 12:00 UTC (2 PM Italian time), the crypto will then be officially listed with the trading pairs HMSTR/USDT, HMSTR/BNB, HMSTR/FDUSD, and HMSTR/TRY.

Those who have interacted with the initiative will be able to immediately redeem the gain and sell it.

We remind you that once again it is necessary to have completed the KYC verification in advance.

We expect a large number of users both at the launchpool and on the first day of listing, with the exchange potentially struggling to handle the network traffic.

Even the blockchain of TON could experience slowdowns since Hamster Kombat is considered the most popular cryptographic game ever.

Pre-market quotation of Hamster Kombat crypto: is buying at listing a good investment?

While the engines are warming up for the launch of Hamster Kombat’s crypto, users are wondering if buying at the listing will turn out to be a good investment.

Before analyzing the question, we report some data related to the tokenomics of HMSTR.

According to Binance Research, the supply at the time of listing will be 64,375,000,000 HAMSTER, equal to 64.38% of the total.

The team is entitled to a modest share of 8%, while for marketing purposes and liquidity 4% has been reserved in both cases.

For the project partners and for the Grant initiatives, tokens amounting to 6% of the total are allocated.

Although the crypto is not yet available on the markets, you can take part in the investment through the pre-market exchanges.

Currently HMSTR is valued at 0.008 on the platform Whales Market, with similar prices also on other brokers like Bybit, Kucoin, Gate.io etc.

With this value, the FDV of Hamster Kombat projects to 800 million dollars, a rather feasible figure for such a popular game.

Indicatively, assuming a total of eligible users equal to 200 million units, it is estimated that the airdrop will be about 300 HMSTR per wallet, or 2.4 dollars.

It is a figure that will disappoint a large part of the current farmers, who hope to cash in on a project unfortunately excessively targeted.

1. @hamster_kombat has over 300 million players
2. $HMSTR Total Supply = 100 billion.
3. Airdrop to Eligible players= 60 billion.

Now let's do our Calculation:
At least, 200 million players will be eligible.

Buying at the listing probably does not represent a good investment, especially if HMSTR launches above 0.008 dollars (higher value in premarket).

Normally, most of the crypto launched through airdrop experience an initial price drop, so it might not be smart to market buy right away.

Furthermore, since the game is free, it is estimated that a large part of the users will sell immediately at launch.

Don’t let FOMO get the best of you and avoid making hasty decisions on cryptos that can depreciate so easily.
