What is Hamster Kombat (HMSTR)?

Deep Dive

1. Purpose & Value Proposition

Hamster Kombat aims to simplify Web3 adoption by embedding crypto concepts into a casual game. Players act as exchange CEOs, completing tasks like upgrading departments (Marketing, Legal) and solving daily Morse code puzzles (“Daily Cipher”) to earn HMSTR tokens (Whitepaper). Its viral referral system and low entry barrier (no downloads—runs on Telegram) drove rapid growth to 300M+ players.

2. Technology & Architecture

Built as a Telegram mini-app, it leverages TON blockchain for wallet integration and token transactions. The game uses TON Connect for seamless crypto interactions, enabling players to claim rewards without leaving Telegram. Future plans include migrating to a dedicated Layer-2 network on TON for faster transactions (Roadmap).

3. Tokenomics & Ecosystem

HMSTR has a fixed supply of 100B tokens, with 60% allocated to player airdrops. The token powers in-game upgrades, NFT purchases, and governance votes. Beyond the game, HMSTR will fuel a publishing ecosystem for indie games, integrating Web2 and Web3 monetization (e.g., ads, subscriptions) to reduce sell pressure (Whitepaper).

Conclusion

Hamster Kombat bridges casual gaming and crypto by turning Web3 education into a competitive, community-driven experience. Its success hinges on scaling beyond the initial game—can it evolve into a sustainable platform for decentralized gaming, or will it remain a viral novelty?
