The team behind the viral Telegram game Hamster Kombat has just announced a massive airdrop that’s making waves in the Web3 space.
After Season 1, a staggering 60 billion Hamster Kombat (HMSTR) tokens will be distributed to users. This is part of a larger plan to allocate 75% of the game’s total 100 billion tokens to the community.
Breaking it down: 60% of the total token supply is up for grabs after Season 1, with another 15% set to drop during Season 2. Out of the initial 60 billion, eligible users will receive 88.75% instantly, which translates to 53.25 billion tokens.
The remaining 11.25% (or 6.75 billion tokens) will be unlocked 10 months after the token hits exchanges.
Moreover, in just 81 days, the clicker game racked up 239 million users and has now surpassed 300 million players.
However, only 131 million—just 43% of the total user base—qualify for the airdrop scheduled for September 26. The team also revealed it banned 2.3 million users for cheating, ensuring that only legitimate players reap the rewards.

The Biggest Airdrop in Crypto History?
The Hamster Foundation boldly claims that this will be the “largest airdrop in the history of crypto.” Most of the tokens will go to players, while the rest is earmarked for liquidity, ecosystem partnerships, and other initiatives.
Notably, the team turned down venture capital offers to keep early investments out, meaning the token’s value will be driven purely by market dynamics.
With no “extra sell pressure,” the value of HMSTR tokens will be dictated by community demand and interest. It’s a bold move that could set a new standard for Web3 gaming and crypto tokenomics.
