HMSTR Token Rate

The clicker game Hamster Kombat appeared in March 2024 and quickly became popular. Its user base increased by 4-5 million daily and grew to 300 million in five months. At one time, the CEO Telegram Pavel Durov called Hamster Kombat "the fastest growing digital service in the world."

However, the excitement around the game quickly died down. Users did not like the poor quality of graphics and the monotonous actions that had to be performed. The distribution of HMSTR tokens caused even greater disappointment. The developers postponed it several times airdrop , and when it finally took place (September 24, 2024), the players’ expectations were not met.

Instead of the promised life-changing payouts, users received a measly $1-4, the head of asset manager Vanguard wrote at the time.

Even governments of a number of countries are unhappy with Hamster Kombat. For example, the Deputy Minister of Defense of Iran named the game "a soft tool" that Western powers use to undermine the government's authority and distract people from elections. Russian State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin called Hamster Kombat a scam and called for the game to be banned.
