Hamster Kombat Hype Turns To Gripes After HMSTR Token Plummets On Launch

The hype around Telegram clicker game Hamster Kombat quickly turned to gripes after the HMSTR token imploded on launch and players slammed the project’s airdrop.

The HMSTR token slumped as much as 50% after listing on major crypto exchanges yesterday as frustration over the project erupted on social media platforms.

“You gave me dust after 4 months,” said one X user while venting his frustration towards the airdrop. ”I am killing hamsters, rats, rabbits or anything that looks like a hamster.”

HMSTR is trading at $0.006655 as of 10:07 a.m. EST, down 26% from its launch price. It has a market capitalization of $428 million, making it the 423rd biggest crypto, according to CoinMarketCap.

Hamster Kombat Players Criticize The Team For HMSTR’s Unfair Distribution

Hamster Kombat distributed 60 billion HMSTR tokens, which is 60% of the crypto’s supply, through multiple tier-1 exchanges including Binance, OKX and BitGet yesterday.

Following months of participating in the game, completing quests, and promoting Hamster Kombat, several players were angered after only receiving as little as $2 worth of tokens.

A major issue that has been brought up online is the token’s distribution. Some of the game’s once-loyal players accused the project’s team of unfairly disqualifying 63% of participants from receiving tokens. 

Out of the game’s 300 million players, only 131 million qualified for the token distribution event. Another 2.3 million lost their eligibility recently for alleged cheating.

To make matters worse, community members who backed the project received meager rewards, while influencers reportedly received millions of tokens for hardly any effort.

Some disgruntled airdrop participants also left comments for the project’s smart contract on the TON network. “Assholes, be cursed with your airdrop,” one person wrote.

#HMSTRSCAM Trends Online

Angry Hamster Kombat players are now urging others to block the project’s bot as well as boycott its social media accounts. Conversations linked to #HMSTRSCAM are also trending online.

Many have said that they will not be participating in the second season of the airdrop campaign, anticipating that the next distribution will be just as disappointing.

DeFi CEO Says ‘No One Cares’ to Deutsche Bank Entry into BTC Custody

Deutsche Bank to offer bitcoin custody solution for institutional clients. Cake Group CEO believes the move will not substantially increase capital inflow or attract new participants. Deutsche Bank’s Paul Maley projects the digital asset sector to grow to trillions of dollars. Julian Hosp, the CEO of DeFi business Cake Group, has shared a skeptical reaction to Deutsche Bank’s newly-launched bitcoin custody services for institutional clients. Responding to a post on X (Twitter) by Bitcoin Magazine announcing the bank’s new services, Hosp wrote “Sadly, no one cares”. In full, his response read, And guess what… sadly no one cares… because everyone in Germany can already buy #bitcoin either with an ETF (that has literally ZERO volume) or on an exchange. All these banks entering the space, are not bringing in extra money or people. They are just re-routing existing… https://t.co/MMZHSbGB9U — Dr. Julian Hosp (@julianhosp) September 15, 2023 The Cake Group CEO argue

MATIC Price Plunges, Have the Bulls Finally Lost Control?

Image
MATIC witnessed a decline in bullish momentum and has lost hold of the $0.74 psychological support. Buying pressure was weak as the CMF hovered around the zero line. Traders might likely short/sell MATIC in the near term since the 50 EMA crossed over the 20 EMA. Polygon (MATIC) brief dip below $0.78 has turned out to be an event that has lasted a whopping five days. Over the last 24 hours, the altcoin had lost 2.32% of its value. But its last 30 days’ performance was controlled by the bulls where MATIC increased by 6.61%. Currently, the MATIC/USD 4-Hour chart shows that the altcoin was hovering around a tight support zone at $0.71. Due to decreased demand, MATIC’s buying strength has been cut off. This indicates bearish dominance around $0.72. For MATIC to regain bullish momentum, the price must rise above the $0.74 psychological level. But if selling pressure outweighs demand, then the recovery attempt could be quenched. Furthermore, bears have pushe
