Hamster Kombat (HMSTR)

Hamster Kombat (HMSTR) is a TON-based Jetton issued at contract EQAJ8uWd7EBqsmpSWaRdf_I-8R8-XHwh3gsNKhy-UrdrPcUo on The Open Network and viewable on Tonscan. The token is the in-game currency of Hamster Kombat, a tap-to-earn Telegram mini-app launched in 2024, where players take on the role of a hamster running a fictional crypto exchange and earn in-game points by tapping, completing daily missions, and upgrading virtual departments. At the height of its launch cycle, the game reported more than 300 million unique players, making it briefly one of the largest Telegram mini-apps and one of the dominant tap-to-earn properties tied to the TON ecosystem.

HMSTR was distributed through an in-game airdrop tied to player level, daily activity, and several mini-game qualifiers, and is now openly traded on TON DEXs and on major centralized venues including Binance, OKX, Bybit, and Bitget. The Hamster Kombat team has framed the token as the economic backbone of a broader gaming ecosystem rather than a single one-off airdrop, with sequels and additional game modes (notably Hamster Kombat 2 and standalone events) routing rewards through the same token. Beyond gameplay, HMSTR is positioned by the team as a vehicle for onboarding non-crypto users into Web3 via Telegram, drawing on TON’s tight Telegram integration to keep the wallet and token-handling experience inside the app.

HMSTR launched with a fixed maximum supply of 100 billion tokens at standard TON Jetton precision, of which roughly 64.4 billion are currently circulating after the initial airdrop distribution. The token’s mid-launch price has settled well below its initial listing zone, with a unit price now in the sub-cent range, a market capitalization in the high single-digit million-dollar zone, and daily volume in the low seven-figure dollar range across the venues that quote it. The official site at hamsterkombat.io remains the main entry point, with the team’s X account and Telegram channel under the hamster_kombat handle covering updates, and the documentation portal at hamsterkombatgame.io hosting the project’s whitepaper and roadmap materials.
