Can Hamster Kombat make a comeback strong enough to reclaim its glory days? The viral Telegram sensation is re-emerging with a new vision, expanded ecosystem, and revamped gameplay through HamsterVerse—a Web3 world promising to reignite community excitement.

Hamster Kombat developers introduced Hamster Eldorado, a platform that enables users to swap unvested and unclaimed $HMSTR tokens to HamsterVerse Gold at competitive prices. This step unlocks real value in the HamsterVerse ecosystem—users can utilize Gold in the game without needing Telegram Stars.
Top picks are special in-game rewards, special events, and incentives that enrich user engagement. With 34.38 M Telegram subscribers, 3.8 M active Telegram users, 34.1 M subs on YouTube, and 12.5 M X (formerly Twitter) followers, Hamster Kombat's community is still enormous. Its size indicates the project's user base is not dead—it's just waiting for its next highlight moment.
It is precisely a year ago that Hamster Kombat (HMSTR) was listed on top exchanges like Binance, OKX, Bitget, Gate, MEXC, KuCoin, BingX, and Crypto.com. In the meantime, the world of crypto has been an uncertain, rollercoaster-ride.
The year saw Bitcoin touch an all-time high of $126,198.07, only to be topped by the largest 24-hour market drop that wiped out 9.5% in value and more than $300 billion in capitalization. Massive $9 billion+ liquidations, surprise 100% tariff shocks from the US, and the global crypto market cap high of $4.28 trillion all helped fuel the volatility. Concurrently, the SEC leadership turnovers and rate cuts to 400–425 basis points recreated the broader financial landscape.
Against such hot and stormy backdrop, Hamster Kombat's coin price has never been able to regain its previous strength. Having hit its historical peak of $0.01004 on 20th September, 2024, HMSTR has been steadily declining, hitting a new low of $0.00004763 on 11th October, 2025. The sharp decline is a sign of the diminishing momentum of the token amidst the overall market mayhem, exhibiting even one of the most highly speculated crypto games of 2024 hasn't been spared by the stabilities that are rocking the digital asset market.
At the time of writing, HMSTR is $0.0004581, +8.35% in the day, with a market cap of $29.5M and 24h volume of $7.24M. It has dropped 28.11% in the last 7 days, and over 40% in a month, significantly lower than its listing price of $0.006506.

RSI at 32.3 indicates HMSTR is moving towards oversold levels but with weak reversal signals.
Short term: probable consolidation between $0.004–$0.006
Medium term: a $0.20–$0.50 push is possible if ecosystem rebirth keeps picking up pace
Long-term: If extreme supply burns continue and major CEXs add HMSTR, combined with strong marketing and new use cases inside HamsterVerse, the token could enter a parabolic phase by late 2025. Under these ideal bullish conditions, $1 could be reached as early as mid-2026, riding a viral retail wave similar to past meme-coin cycles.
With 100B HMSTR total supply and 64.37B circulating, Hamster Kombat looks to begin constructing its kingdom—but time and execution will tell whether hype will be sufficient to turn the script around.
This re-emergence also hangs a cloud over other Telegram-driven initiatives such as Blum, Catizen, Tomarket, and Musk Empire. If the re-emergence of Hamster Kombat fails, it could raise questions within the entire Telegram cryptocurrency ecosystem. But if HamsterVerse thrives, it can lead the way towards the emergence of a new generation of mini-game economies.
Hamster Kombat’s comeback is more than just a feature update—it’s a strategic ecosystem expansion. With HamsterVerse, massive community strength, and fresh in-game incentives, the project has the ingredients for revival. But reclaiming or surpassing its all-time high will depend on consistent delivery, market timing, and community trust. The next few months will decide whether this hamster runs the wheel again—or fades into the background.
