Hamster Kombat announces date for Season 2 airdrop
The Hamster Kombat token ($HMSTR) surged by 37% within the last 24 hours following news of a Season 2 airdrop from the play-to-earn project.
This upswing comes after Hamster Kombat’s recent price dip and player exodus due to a controversial Season 1 airdrop event, which left many participants disappointed.
The announcement, made on the project’s Telegram channel, revealed that withdrawals for $HMSTR tokens would no longer be available and promised rewards for players who retained their tokens.
It hinted at several improvements, including new gameplay mechanics and a revamped economic model intended to address the issues that plagued the previous airdrop.
Hamster Kombat Season 2 Airdrop is expected to introduce features such as virtual gaming studio management, custom space creation, team hiring systems, community-driven challenges, and an upgraded token economy.
These changes aim to restore player trust, following criticism that the Season 1 airdrop disproportionately favoured influencers while leaving smaller players with minimal rewards.
Beyond Hamster Kombat’s internal adjustments, the HMSTR token’s rally aligns with a broader post-election crypto bull run and rising Bitcoin prices, adding momentum to the token’s rebound.
With a significantly reduced player base, down from 300 million to roughly 49.9 million, Hamster Kombat hopes to rebuild its community.
The team’s latest steps are seen as a strategic effort to re-engage players and demonstrate a commitment to fairer distribution and improved gameplay.
