Crypto: Internal Conflicts Threaten the Hamster Kombat Airdrop
Initiated as an innovation in the blockchain gaming space, Hamster Kombat quickly captured the attention and engagement of the crypto community. However, recent tensions around profit sharing and project ownership now threaten to jeopardize its future and delay the eagerly anticipated launch of its HMSTR token.
Internal Conflicts and Accusations
Hamster Kombat, the crypto game with millions of players, is facing increasing tensions between its investors and its development team. Indeed, the company AD.RU, which is a key investor in the project, has publicly accused the leaders of Hamster Kombat of not honoring their financial commitments. Anton Gorshkov, CEO of AD.RU, claims that his company invested $600,000 in Hamster Kombat and enabled the raising of additional funding of more than $1 million.
In return, AD.RU expected to receive 25% of the project shares. However, Eduard Gurinovich, project manager at Hamster Kombat, denied any involvement of AD.RU in the project. This divergence has soured relations between the two parties, with AD.RU now considering legal action to resolve the dispute.
The situation was exacerbated by the departure of Nikita Anuriev, former marketing director of Hamster Kombat, who left the project earlier this month, citing disagreements over profit sharing. Anuriev accuses the Hamster Kombat team of failing to meet their promises, notably that of granting him 25% of the profits in exchange for his crucial role in securing the initial investments.
Uncertainties Around the Crypto Airdrop
These internal conflicts have had direct repercussions on the distribution of the HMSTR token, initially scheduled for this month. Hamster Kombat, already facing delays due to the technical limitations of the TON network, is now facing a possible suspension of the airdrop due to internal tensions.
The uncertainty surrounding the project has also had an immediate effect on the pre-market value of the HMSTR token. The price has dropped by more than 50% from its peak, falling from $0.26 to about $0.169 on OKX and $0.187 on ByBit.
Despite the addition of new features and a recent partnership with Crypto.com, Hamster Kombat finds itself at a critical crossroads. The sentiment within the community is beginning to shift, with more and more voices rising against the airdrop delays.
The tensions within Hamster Kombat cast significant uncertainty on the future of the HMSTR token airdrop. While the team strives to calm the community’s concerns, investors and users are becoming increasingly skeptical about the project’s viability. The unresolved conflicts could lead to further delays and permanently affect the project’s reputation in the crypto ecosystem.
