The Telegram-based crypto game, Hamster Kombat, has experienced significant growth, surpassing 150 million users, which is more than the population of Russia. This represents a 50% increase from just last week when the game reached 100 million users. Players have the opportunity to earn real crypto rewards by building a hamster’s virtual crypto exchange, with a token airdrop scheduled for July. The game operates as a mini-app within Telegram, eliminating the need for additional downloads. The game’s announcements channel on Telegram has become the most popular channel on the app, with over 35 million subscribers. In addition to Telegram, Hamster Kombat has gained popularity on other social media platforms, including YouTube and Twitter.

The success of Hamster Kombat can be attributed to its predecessor, Notcoin, another Telegram game backed by cryptocurrency. Notcoin gained a loyal following through a token airdrop to players, generating excitement and leading to a market capitalization of over $2 billion. The native token of Telegram’s preferred blockchain, TON, also saw success, reaching an all-time high price of $8.13. The popularity of Notcoin and Hamster Kombat has inspired other Telegram-based games, such as Tapswap and Yescoin, to launch on TON with similar token airdrop plans. The thriving accomplishments of these games have attracted attention and interest from other aspiring developers and players.

TON’s blockchain has been surpassing Ethereum in terms of daily active addresses, with Delphi Digital attributing this success to Telegram’s massive user base of 900 million. Telegram recently launched a new digital payment feature called “Telegram Stars,” allowing users to make in-app purchases. This move comes as Telegram’s mini apps have been gaining millions of users every day. Other recent developments in the Telegram ecosystem include Hamster Kombat becoming the No.1 channel on Telegram in terms of users, and the Web3 Telegram-based gaming ecosystem Pixelverse raising $5.5 million in a recent capital raise. The success of these projects highlights the growing interest and potential for blockchain-based gaming and development within the Telegram platform.

Overall, the rise in popularity and success of Hamster Kombat, Notcoin, and other Telegram-based games demonstrate the potential for blockchain and cryptocurrency integration within gaming platforms. The token airdrop strategy has proven to be an effective way to attract and engage players, leading to significant growth and market capitalization. With TON’s blockchain outperforming Ethereum in daily active addresses, there is a clear opportunity for developers and gamers to explore new possibilities within the Telegram ecosystem. As more games and projects continue to launch and attract attention, the future of blockchain-based gaming on platforms like Telegram looks promising.
