The long-awaited list of Hamster Kombat game tokens appears to have been postponed. What rumors are circulating in the community, and when can we expect HMSTR to appear on exchanges?
Users of the popular clicker Hamster Kombat waited several months for the game’s cryptocurrency to be listed on crypto exchanges. The listing of HMSTR has been postponed since May. In recent weeks, the crypto community has been eagerly waiting for the listing to take place in July.
However, the month is coming to an end and the Hamster Kombat team is remaining silent, fueling all sorts of rumors and giving rise to speculation.
What do we know about the HMSTR quotation
It has long been discussed that the listing of the HMSTR currency and its subsequent distribution should take place in July. However, the game developers have not made any direct statements about the list with specific timelines.
On July 17, the Russian-language Telegram channel reported that Hamster Kombat developers announced an imminent listing on the CoinDCX exchange and hinted that a token airdrop could take place in the next 24 hours. Later, the post about the alleged drop and registration was deleted, but local media paid pay attention to the news.
However, the official project roadmap does not contain any details on the parts list. According to current data, the launch of the TGE (token generation event) and in-game token utility is expected in July.
One of the reasons for the uncertainty over Hamster Kombat’s listing date could be the market slowdown. Many crypto projects are postponed announcements on the stock exchanges due to the market slowdown. The main cryptocurrencies are starting to fall and, therefore, it is not profitable to enter an exchange with a quote at this specific time.
What is the crypto community saying?
The more the Hamster Kombat team remains silent, the more rumors and negative feelings grow within the community.
Users note that the 250 million strong Hamster Kombat community has been eagerly awaiting news of the roster, but so far they lose hope.
“Users are losing hope in the game. And we know that you will not disappoint users.
Another member of X noted that the project team doesn’t care about the listing; they’re just “taking advantage of YouTube’s money.”
One more user predicted that the community would be extremely disappointed if the listing did not take place in July:
“If the July listing does not appear, the community will definitely be disappointed and disband, the entire Hamster Kombat channel could be destroyed.”
At the same time, the largest Hamster Kombat fan community on X posted an article with upcoming news and roster. The post concerns the imminent launch of the token on eight major exchanges. However, no further details are provided.

Registration uncertainty attracts the attention of fraudsters
Kaspersky Lab said that, amid anticipations for the token’s launch, scammers started stealing Telegram user accounts under the guise of a Hamster Kombat money withdrawal service.
The scheme works like this: attackers send links to a resource for authorization in the service. Through it, users can supposedly withdraw coins from Hamster Kombat. To do this, they must enter their credentials on the opened page. This is how fraudsters gain access to personal accounts in messaging.
“For example, in the case of Hamster Kombat, the scammers assured that payment should take place within 15 minutes after successful authorization in Telegram.”
Olga Svistunova, senior content analyst at Kaspersky Lab
The goal of phishers is to lure a phone number and verification code. Attackers can use this account access for a variety of purposes, including stealing confidential data, blackmailing, and sending fraudulent messages to your contact list.
With cheating cases on the rise, Russia could be the first country to officially ban Hamster Kombat. The head of the State Duma Committee on the financial market, Anatoliy Aksakov, called the “tapping” of the hamster, the “obvious fraud” and the “manipulation and exploitation of the psychology of citizens”.
Who should I contact for registration?
The Hamster Kombat team has maintained anonymity throughout its existence, but recently the media found out who is behind the popular game: Russian businessman Eduard Gurinovich.
However, Gurinovich declared that he and his team became Russia’s exclusive partner in the Hamster Kombat game. They have purchased the rights to the brand and will be responsible for working with the local community.
“The project team gave us the right to officially register the brand “HAMSTER KOMBAT” due to the growing wave of scammers around the world. Russian gamers have often been targets of phishing attacks and deceptions from scammers, and even today we continue to fight against this.

What is the secret to Hamster Kombat’s popularity?
The whole world has been captured by the latest trend: gaming clickers that allow users to win real money. The massive interest in these products can be explained by the successful promotion of these games and their viral effect.
That being said, Mark Long, gaming industry veteran and CEO of Shrapnel, explains that the success of the popular clicker reflects the changing nature of games, which are gradually beginning to embrace blockchain technology and the concept of making money by playing.
“Most developers outside of cryptocurrency are still skeptical about blockchain’s ability to attract players in significant numbers. But given that Hamster Kombat has amassed over 200 million players in the span of a few months, it’s clear that the narrative needs to change. »

So, with the listing of Hamster Kombat, we can expect an even greater wave of popularity for the Tap-to-Earn mechanic. However, for now, the uncertainty regarding the listing is fueling rumors in the crypto community, which is waiting for the exchange of the coveted token.
