On Monday, Bybit, a prominent crypto exchange, had listed Hamster Kombat for pre-market trading. The positive step by Bybit resulted in a sporadic 10000% surge in $HMSTR token value in the past two days. However, it is also pertinent to note that Hamster Kombat has till now not announced any pre-market affiliation officially, therefore users are advised to approach any pre-market trading related activities with caution.

When is the Launch Date of $HMSTR Token Expected?
The game developers of Hamster Kombat have hinted that the Token Generation Event (TGE) i.e. coin launch could happen in July. The developers have also claimed that the token in-game utility will also be launched in the same month.
The Hamster Kombat game was launched on The Open Network (TON) in March this year and the makers of this game have remained anonymous. Till now, the developers have not released any whitepaper on the game and the $HMSTR token thereby keeping over 250 million users in complete darkness about the revenue model, game mechanism and smart contracts of Hamster Kombat.
In that regard, the game developers have recently announced on their official website that they will be releasing a whitepaper soon.
The developers have also claimed that once TGE unfolds, the coin will be listed on prominent crypto exchanges such as ByBit, Binance, OKX, KuCoin, HTX and Bitget.
