Hamster Kombat faces internal conflicts that threaten the future of its HMSTR token airdrop, with disputes over profit sharing and project ownership causing delays and uncertainty.
Internal Disputes Over HMSTR Token Ownership
The game, which boasts millions of players, is currently embroiled in a heated conflict between its development team and investors. AD.RU, a significant investor, has publicly accused Hamster Kombat’s leadership of failing to fulfill its financial obligations. According to Anton Gorshkov, CEO of AD.RU, his company invested $600,000 into the project and helped secure over $1 million in additional funding. In return, AD.RU was promised a 25% stake in Hamster Kombat. However, Eduard Gurinovich, the project manager, disputes AD.RU’s involvement, sparking a tense standoff that could lead to legal action.
The situation further deteriorated with the recent departure of Nikita Anuriev, Hamster Kombat’s former marketing director. Anuriev left earlier this month, citing unresolved disputes over profit sharing. He claims he was promised 25% of the profits for his pivotal role in securing initial investments, a promise he says the team failed to honor. His exit has only deepened the uncertainty surrounding the project.
Airdrop Delays Amid HMSTR Token Price Drop
These internal issues have cast a shadow over the HMSTR token airdrop, which was originally planned for this month. Hamster Kombat had already faced delays due to technical limitations on the TON network, but the recent internal strife could push the airdrop further into the future. The ongoing disputes have also impacted the token’s pre-market value, with prices plummeting over 50% from their peak. On OKX, the HMSTR token price dropped from $0.26 to around $0.169, while ByBit saw it fall to $0.187.
Despite recent updates and a new partnership with Crypto.com, Hamster Kombat is at a critical juncture. The community, once eager for the airdrop, is growing increasingly frustrated with the delays. If these internal conflicts remain unresolved, the future of the HMSTR token and the project itself could be in serious jeopardy.
The coming weeks will be crucial for Hamster Kombat as it navigates these challenges and works to restore confidence among its investors and community.
