Rumours of Dissent Among Hamster Kombat Team: What Next for Hamster?
Hamster Kombat is a GameFi project built on the TON blockchain technology. It amassed much popularity through its referral system, aided by the spike of telegram in-game model app since the second quarter of 2024. With over 52.7 million subscribers, and over 155 million monthly users of its telegram gaming app, Hamster retains one of the largest project communities in the TON ecosystem and the telegram gaming applications.
With rumours of rifts among team members spreading around, there is a growing concern of uncertainty on possible benefts that could be derived as contributors to the project among community members. Hamster still retain its followings, with a large proportion bent on observing how it plays out. However, considering the size of global players using the platform, and its role in spreading the decentralization gospel towards bringing in new entrants into the web3 ecosystem, it becomes critical for the project to grow past this adversity. Its success will further strengthen beliefs in cryptocurrency among new players in the crypto space.
Hamster Kombat Gaming Model
Hamster Kombat utilizes the bitcoin mining capacity strategy in delegating rewards systems. Mining capacities are used to generate more coins, which are in turn used to boost mining capacity for greater Profit Per Hour PPH. As against the large drop concepts from tokens generated through mining, it focuses its approach on the rate of mining speed.
Cards with different proportions of PPH are made available for purchase with mined tokens generated. Each individual cards can also be upgraded in level to generate more PPH by regular purchase of upgrade functions. Each card is made available to community with a little story backdrop to boost enlightenments and contributive excitement levels towards continued participation in generating more rewards in PPH.
Participants are also regarded as CEOs, as measure of recognition of the community’s contributions to the project. Which also yields to the decentralization idea of control. Giving community members a sense of control over their participation in the project. As well as creating a feeling of growth using regular upgrades in CEO level to appreciate milestones and achievements within the gaming platform.
A puzzle solving feature has also been added to the gaming platform, which generates a key as reward for problem solving. This feature began with a 20s timeline for solving puzzles but was increased on request by the community for increased timeline. Thereby fostering a sense of community governed ecosystem for the project. Which is quite key for overcoming project adversities when such time arises because of the trust built over time between project’s builders and community.
Like the mining rate feature, the Hamster team have announced the number of keys generated will also be a determinant in allocating token during distributions. Which is a call for players to keep accumulating keys through gaming features introduced in the application before its official launch on exchanges. In order to increase the chances of getting more token allocation when the distribution phase begins.
Playground features have also been introduced to add more key generating games into the application. Some of the games include:
Ride Bike 3D: Players are invited to participate in races after which codes are generated in order to enable players receive secret keys as reward for participation. Watching of ads and bike upgrades can have positive effects when taking parts in races.
Train Miner: Like Ride Bike 3D, train miners also involve rewarding gamers for codes to unlock secret keys
Chain Cube 2048: This game introduces challenges to be solved through brain teasers and logic number games.
My Clone Army: Allows gamers to purchase virtual items in-game using real money. Players can clone themselves to battle on multiplayer arena. Players will face endless waves of enemies on the battlefield.
Merge Away: Is one of the new games introduced on the hamster playground. Players are to discover and merge identical items and backgrounds.
Twerk Race: This is another new game introduced on the Hamster playground. Players are to build muscles in-game through exciting race to become twerking legends.
These games are code generation mechanisms within the Hamster playground in order to get rewards in secret keys. The codes generated from these games are used in unlocking these secret keys.
Other reward mechanisms that will be used in token distribution as revealed in the gaming app include achievement levels for skins bought, number of coins mined, levels of cards upgraded as well as any future mechanism that could be revealed by the core teams. As the prospective launch of the Hamster token HMSTR draws closer, the community keep building up points that will increase individual reward system on token launch.
Hamster Kombat Funding Mechanism
The recent announcement by the hamster team on rejection of investments offers from several venture capitalists in the web3 space has generated mixed reactions among observers and community members. The team emphasizes value for community over investors as a major factor. Promoting equal access to same opportunity. While disapproving the trends of web3 projects using built communities as exit liquidity for venture capitals backers. Frowning against the practice of leaving community members hanging with straws.
While the reasons provided remain valid, questions have risen about the project’s prospects with limited access to finance to push its innovative ideas. Some arguments have also been drawn regarding the role of venture capitals VCs in the crypto space.

This ensuing sides towards the path of the project have been perceived to have eaten into the core team’s unified stance.

While there have been no official statements through the Hamster Kombat channel to confirm or discredit such rumours, gamers and community members have continued engagements within the app, with keen interest in the shared hope of success of the project.
