Why Hamster Kombat Airdrop Offers A $10bn Opportunity, While Notcoin Price Soars 33% in 7 Days And P2E Games Trend

Hamster Kombat is the latest TON tap-to-earn clicker game to go viral, following on from wildly popular Notcoin, which from nowhere has marched to a market capitalization north of $1.6 billion.

In a measure of Hamster Kombat’s success, the new Telegram-based game has attracted more than 240 million users, 51 million subscribers on its Telegram announcements channel , 11.7 million followers on X , and 32.9 million subscribers to its YouTube channel.

As the clicker tap-to-earn model catches fire, it looks like Notcoin is far from a one-off; it is actually the OG of a new crypto trend in play-to-earn (P2E) gaming – or should that be tap-to-earn or earn-to-airdrop gaming?

Notcoin has increased 33% to $0.0158 in the past seven days, despite tough market conditions. It is 46% off its all-time high of $0.0289. Anticipation is building that the Hamster Kombat ($HMSTR) token will outperform $NOT by a wide margin.

Meanwhile, other alternatives in the P2E space, such as PlayDoge , Shiba Shootout , SpongeV2 and eTukTuk are also making a noise (more on this below).

For its part, Hamster Kombat has far better user and community metrics than Notcoin, so the sky’s the limit – a $10 billion market capitalization valuation is certainly a possibility.  

$HMSTR token is expected to launch in July. For now, the task list for the listing airdrop is limited to connecting a TON wallet. The details can be found by heading over to the airdrop section in the bot. In the meantime, centralized exchanges such as Kucoin and Bitget have launched $HMSTR futures markets.

There have been various rumors and false starts regarding the exact $HMSTR token listing date, but according to information shared on the airdrop tasks page the “listing is on its way”.

Hamster Kombat Is Going From Strength To Strength: Here’s Why

Hamster Kombat has put considerable thought into being more engaging than Notcoin. Arguably it shouldn’t be too difficult to be more interesting than a simple clicker game, but therein lies the Hamster’s genius. 

Yes, there’s a lot of tapping to be done in Hamster Kombat. But while staying true to that core competency, this latest sensation on the TON chain goes way beyond just clicking – in Hamster Kombat players navigate a task-rich environment as the CEO of their very own crypto exchange. 

By providing a wide array of tasks to perform to start earning, all within a narrative framework that provides structure and targets, Hamster Kombat has scored the bullseye.

One tap equals one coin and players can earn quicker by using the ‘Multitap Boost’ feature. There’s also an energy boost that can be replenished six times a day.

In addition to earn-per-tap, players can boost their profit per hour by heading to the mining area. Players can also find the daily combo card by finding the right combination to grab five million in-game coins. Cracking the Daily Cipher Morse Code will earn one million.

Engagement Is Key To Success For P2E Game Hamster Kombat 

And there’s much more. Choose from Markets, PR Team Legal and Specials to explore the upgrades you can add to your exchange. Head over to the PR section and join the Hamster Kombat Telegram channel to earn 5,000 points – join the channel, click ‘check’ in the game and your level-up is complete. 

Or why not watch a Hamster Kombat YouTube channel video to earn 100,000 points (the channel now has 25.3 million subscribers. The Hamster news reports are daily affairs that cover crypto news bites, helping to make sure you don’t miss anything in crypto’s fast-moving markets.

Under ‘Specials’ users can add merch to their exchange, plus premarket launches and a Web3 academy, all of which will boost profit per hour by varying amounts.

As you amass coins in the game you move up the leaderboard and reach new levels. Recently a new top level called The Creator was introduced, requiring a stash of 18,000,000,000 coins.

A lot of thought and work went into putting Hamster Kombat together. After watching the video, you will need to wait for the moderation check before you can claim the 100,000 prize. 

Hamster is taking community engagement gamification to another level, as you work your way through the other typical activities on social, such as following the X account and inviting friends.

Get Your Crypto Exchange Ready For The HMSTR Airdrop

As players build out their exchange by adding various categories of trading pairs, KYC and the rest, they unlock greater earning potential, which in turn can be reinvested to unlock yet more functionality and earning multipliers.

There’s a lot to get your Hammy teeth into and being Telegram-based makes it a cinch to get started and earning.

Landing on the ‘build an exchange’ idea is looking like a masterstroke. Everyone in crypto knows a thing or two about exchanges and what makes them tick. It is easy to see how the game cna quickly become addictive as there’s more to do here than just clicking.

As coins are amassed the exchange moves up the rankings and the faster players can earn more coins (profit per hour).

As with Notcoin, the token will be released at the end of the season, and the in-game coins will be swapped for it as part of the distribution process. The token generation event and listing date will be posted on the Hamster Kombat Telegram announcement channel .

More Top Games On Telegram You Should Know About

Because this is crypto, you would expect would-be imitators to have spotted how the new model is catching fire and to join in the fun. 

More games are now jumping on the bandwagon, with projects such as Yescoin, Citizen, and TapSwap all vying to come into contention as top tap-to-earn games. In fact, not all gamers are clickers, as other casual gaming genres start to appear.

Take Catizen. It is inspired by the puzzle game 2049, where numbered tiles are moved around and when two of the same number touch, they become one. Catizen is the same, but with cats.

The Open Network (TON) is vying to become one of the hottest chains in crypto because of its association with the eponymous messaging app. 

Telegram has been demonstrating for some time its suitability for the wider crypto community because of its privacy, security and functionality. 

Unlike other messaging platforms, Telegram lets users access powerful bots to automate interactions in messaging groups, even opening up the platform to products like casinos and, as seen with Notcoin and now Hamster Kombat, games. Those bots are now morphing into fully blown applications, spanning gaming, utilities, productivity and Web3 apps.

Aside from games, another early use-case hit is gambling, where pioneers such as TG.Casino has gained considerable traction for its app, which was the first licensed casino on the Telegram platform. 

Its $TGC token has been airdropped on four occasions, totaling 16 million tokens, with more to come. TG.Casino is the official regional iGaming partner of the legendary Italian football team AC Milan.

Notcoin and Hamster Kombat Are At The Forefront Of The New TON Telegram App Universe

Telegram is already the most visited internet app in the cryptosphere, and according to co-founder Pavel Durov, it is on track to have one billion users by the end of the year.

In a recent Telegram post Durov commented : “Hamster Kombat has become the latest Internet phenomenon everyone’s talking about. 239 million people have signed up for this Telegram mini app in just 3 months 

“It took Hamster only 73 days to reach 100 million monthly users. Each day, 4-5 million new users join Hamster Kombat, making it the fastest-growing digital service in the world.”

Durov thinks TON will soon be the most-used blockchain because of its distribution reach and ease of use.

Not only is Toncoin ($TON) now accepted as a form of payment for booking advertisements on Telegram, undergirding the token’s value, but it is also the native asset of a burgeoning ecosystem of apps.

Notcoin and Hamster Kombat are examples of the new breed of so-called Mini Apps that can now be built to run on Telegram. Mini Apps can turn Telegram into the ‘everything app’ to die for.

TON is already positioning itself as the ‘ultimate meme coin hub’, but the ambitions of the Telegram ecosystem stakeholders go much further.

At the Telegram Apps Center all manner of apps are to be found, from budgeting tools, online chess, connectivity tools, dating, and even an app to teach yourself to be a crypto analyst – that’s just a selection at random from the ‘new’ section of the Telegram Apps Center.

Alternative P2E Game Tokens To Watch For Price Surges

Before we leave Hamster Kombat it is worth mentioning that there are a bunch of other interesting games up and coming that crypto fans will be interested in. 

PlayDoge is staking 8-bit gaming to another level with its Tamagotchi-style meme coin 2D retro gaming revolution. $PLAY is the native token of the ecosystem and is available in presale today for just $0.00517. 

The token price clocks higher in less than 24 hours, so prospective buyers will need to move quickly to lock in the lowest price. 

Then there’s Shiba Shootout is in presale and its game is already available to download from Google Play and the Apple App Store . This Wild West-themed game goes beyond the typical P2E fare by placing the emphasis firmly on skill and fun with top-notch game mechanics. $SHIBASHOOT token is currently priced in presale at $0.0195.

SpongeV2 is the upgraded version of the original Sponge which pumped 100x at launch. The revamp on Ethereum and Polygon Layer 2 paves the way for the highly anticipated new P2E Sponge Runner game. While waiting for the game to launch, many token holders are staking their tokens to earn 49% APY.  

Last but not least, TukTuk Crazy Taxi is a game from the team at eTukTuk ($TUK) . As the name suggests, it is a tuk-tuk taxi game in which you earn tokens by picking up and dropping off passengers while navigating busy city streets. 

The $TUK token at the heart of the game sells out in four days for a price of $0.0345. TukTuk Crazy Taxi can be downloaded from Google Play and the Apple App Store .
