Hamster Kombat, a leading play-to-earn Web3 project, has declined investment offers from venture capital firms to protect its 300 million users. The team prioritizes player fairness by reserving 60% of the $HMSTR tokens for players, reinforcing a community-driven approach and avoiding the pitfalls of VC-backed projects.
Hamster Kombat, one of the leading play-to-earn projects in the Web3 space, has rejected multiple investment offers from prominent venture capital firms. The decision, announced through the company’s Telegram channel, underscores the team’s commitment to maintaining the integrity of the game and prioritizing its 300 million-strong player community.
Hamster Kombat’s developers emphasized that their primary focus is on creating a fair and rewarding gaming experience, where players earn the in-game $HMSTR tokens through participation rather than financial investment. The team expressed concerns about the growing trend in the Web3 industry, where many projects prioritize securing venture capital at the expense of their communities, often leaving users vulnerable as mere "exit liquidity" for investors.
In contrast, Hamster Kombat has chosen to stay independent, ensuring that 60% of the upcoming $HMSTR token supply will be distributed directly to players. The remaining 40% will be allocated for market liquidity, ecosystem partnerships, and in-game rewards, reinforcing the team’s dedication to fostering a player-first environment.
This strategic decision not only strengthens the game’s community-driven approach but also positions Hamster Kombat as a potential game-changer in the industry. With its unwavering focus on player empowerment and fair distribution, the project continues to grow in popularity, particularly in Nigeria and other African nations, where it has amassed a significant following.
As Hamster Kombat prepares for what could be the largest airdrop in Web3 history, the team’s commitment to its community remains clear: they value their players above all else and are determined to protect their interests in the rapidly evolving crypto landscape.
