HMSTR token jumps 83% ahead of season 2 launch
Hamster Kombat’s HMSTR (CRYPTO:HMSTR) token surged by 83% over the past week, driven by excitement over hints of a season 2 airdrop.
The announcement, shared on Hamster Kombat’s official Telegram channel, has generated anticipation among users eager for the new season’s rollout.
The HMSTR token’s recent gains coincide with Bitcoin’s (CRYPTO:BTC) rise to an all-time high of $82,000, boosting positive market sentiment and fueling HMSTR’s weekly growth.
On November 9, the development team halted token withdrawals as part of a strategy to incentivise players holding HMSTR tokens within the game.
An official statement assured that these loyal players would be rewarded, demonstrating the platform's commitment to fostering community engagement and long-term holding.
Season 2 promises significant gameplay enhancements and revamped token economics.
Upcoming features include tools for players to create personalised gaming spaces, a team member hiring system, community-led challenges, and management tools for virtual gaming studios.
These changes aim to deepen user interaction and ensure sustainable token value.
Despite the enthusiasm, Hamster Kombat has faced challenges since its first airdrop on September 26.
User numbers dropped from 300 million to 49.9 million, with backlash over the fairness of anti-cheat systems and allegations of favoritism toward influencers.
"Hamster Kombat’s Season 2 won’t succeed unless they fix the big mistake of disqualifying 65%+ of their players. Yes, cheaters should be punished, but their system has failed to spot the real cheaters," stated community member Keyur Rohit on X.
The development team has pledged to address past issues by improving gameplay, reward distribution, and token stability.
With season 2 set to expand beyond crypto exchange simulations to a more comprehensive gaming ecosystem, Hamster Kombat aims to rebuild trust and engage its community with enhanced features and a better user experience.
At the time of reporting, the Hamster Kombat (HMSTR) price was $0.004667.
