The post Could Hamster Kombat Outgrow Notcoin? New Telegram Earning Game Continues to See Rapid Growth appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Notcoin and Hamster Kombat are locking horns to become Toncoin’s dominant Play-to-Earn dApp.
Both projects have experienced huge growth in recent months, but which will come out on top?
Over 150 million people are trying to get rich from P2E gaming with Hamster Kombat.
This figure is unlike anything else in crypto’s journey toward mass adoption, reflecting the colossal excitement behind the new game.
Hamster Kombat’s immediate premise is simple: users tap an image of a cute hamster to earn points, which they can then use to build a crypto exchange empire and earn passive in-game income.
Beyond the tap-to-earn feature, Hamster Kombat’s business-building concept is reminiscent of tycoon-style business simulation games that remained popular from the 1990s until today.
But it’s the game’s free crypto allure that’s causing the buzz.
An airdrop is expected to occur, providing players with a share of Hamster Kombat tokens based on their in-game performance.
The game is free to play, so the only thing in the way of crypto rewards is tapping an image of a cute hamster – which seems like a reasonable tradeoff.
As such, the project has amassed a staggering community. Its latest figures reveal that there are over 150 million players, over 3x more than Notcoin’s 40 million.
Moreover, Hamster Kombat also trumps Notcoin on social metrics. Its X account boasts 8.9 million followers, compared to Notcoin’s 1.8 million.
Most importantly, for Toncoin-based apps, Hamster Kombat’s Telegram has 40M subscribers, which is magnitudes bigger than Notcoin’s 8 million community.
The hamster-themed game has also caught the attention of prestigious heavyweight media bodies, including Bloomberg.
The outfit recently said that projects like Hamster Kombat could be the next big deal in crypto.
Indeed, there’s massive excitement surrounding the new project, especially because its token has yet to launch.
Following Notcoin’s token launch, it surged into the top 50 most valuable cryptocurrencies within weeks.
But with Hamster Kombat’s larger audience, there’s every chance this project could be just as big, if not bigger.
However, for those who prefer not to wait for the Hamster Kombat airdrop, PlayDoge is another P2E crypto to consider.
It’s taking a different approach, opting for a presale-focused launch. This means traders can secure tokens at a fixed price before it hits exchanges.
The presale has already raised $4.8 million, signalling a huge nod of approval from P2E investors.
Inspired by the iconic 1990s Tamagotchi game, PlayDoge offers gamers a way to relive their childhood while earning crypto rewards.
Tamagotchi was a 90s sensation, selling over 82 million units globally.
But the PlayDoge reboot ups the ante with $PLAY rewards.
The project will also swap out the Tamagotchi pet for an 8-bit doge, tapping into crypto’s meme coin trend.
Users will care for their pet, ensuring it’s happy and healthy so it doesn’t run away or die. Like Hamster Kombat, they’ll generate XP points for looking after their pet, which translates to $PLAY tokens.
It’s a captivating concept based on value and nostalgic gaming.
$PLAY holders can also generate crypto by staking their tokens. Staking has launched alongside the presale, meaning presale participants can start compounding their investment immediately.
Currently, they can garner a whopping 149% APY. However, this will decrease as the staking pool grows.
Over 120 million $PLAY tokens have already been staked, which reflects the community’s deep hunger for more tokens.
Investors can buy PlayDoge tokens at presale for $0.0051. But this price will rise throughout the campaign, with the next uptick in eight hours.
