The tap-to-earn game Hamster Kombat has catapulted to stardom within the Telegram community, amassing an astonishing 300 million users globally. Following this achievement, the game released a whitepaper that details an ambitious HMSTR token airdrop.
Labeled as the “largest airdrop in the history of crypto,” 60% of the tokens are earmarked for their vast player base.
Hamster Kombat and TapSwap Face Criticism
However, the initial HMSTR airdrop, scheduled for this month, has been postponed. The team cited significant operational challenges and refrained from announcing a new date.
“The Hamster token airdrop is a technically complex undertaking, unprecedented in the blockchain world. We’re not setting specific dates for one simple reason: it’s impossible to predict the exact timeline for implementing this solution,” Hamster Kombat said.

Additionally, Hamster Kombat revealed plans to conclude season 1 shortly, yet specifics about the end date and the start of season 2 remain undisclosed. Consequently, this ambiguity has led to user discontent.
“Announcing that there’s Season 1 and Season 2 mining without a definite date for ending the mining activities or listing is nasty work. After some many tasks, people will move on,” an X user Oreva said.
Simultaneously, another major player in the tap-to-earn space, TapSwap, is preparing for a significant milestone. The platform plans to launch a token generation event (TGE) in the third quarter of 2024.
“I want to clarify one thing briefly without overwhelming you with details. TapSwap will launch in Q3 2024, but an exact date has yet to be announced. We’re focused on developing the best product and will announce the TGE date once all responsible parties have confirmed it,” TapSwap founder Naz Ventura stated.
The community’s response to TapSwap’s TGE announcement mirrors the frustrations felt by Hamster Kombat users.
“TapSwap is never straightforward, the TGE is taking years, and we have given up already. I don’t even open the mini app again. I’ve forgotten I have a TapSwap account,” a TapSwap player said.
Tapswap has successfully attracted over 60 million users by offering a simple, engaging way to earn TAPS coins through in-game activities. Players must utilize boosts and manually mine coins to maximize their earnings.
The success of Hamster Kombat and Tapswap follows in the footsteps of Notcoin, a trailblazer in the tap-to-earn genre. Since its launch, Notcoin has secured a strong player base. Its popularity stems from a straightforward tap-to-earn mechanism, where players accumulate coins by completing tasks and engaging with in-game enhancements.

In May, Notcoin conducted an airdrop of over 80 billion NOT tokens, valued at approximately $1 billion. This massive distribution highlights the significant financial potential within the tap-to-earn model and demonstrates the lucrative rewards players can achieve through consistent game interaction.
