Notes of an SMM-manager. Tap-to-earn games are the future or scam?

Hi, this is Anya SMM manager of Betatransfer Kassa, who is constantly testing everything.

Admit it, how many times have you been sent a link to register for Hamster Kombat? Former colleagues, friends, unknown users in response to comments, your favourite blogger in Telegram? To me, a bunch of times.

I’m not a gamer at all, and I don’t believe you can make money by tapping Hamster Kombat. Nevertheless, I have a Hamster. So let’s find out if and how you can make money on Hamster and on these games in general.

Hamster Kombat

As of today, Hamster Kombat token does not exist, but ByBit and Gate.io have launched a pre-market trading under the ticker HMSTR. The premarket has a large list of buy and sell orders. Airdrop is rumoured to be planned within a month and will depend on the profit per hour of your account. My current profit per hour is 1mil/hour.

If you haven’t played it, Hamster Kombat is one of the first tap-and-play games on TON, where in-game points are awarded for completing mini-games, collecting cards, watching videos and subscribing to the game’s social media accounts.

Who will definitely make money from the game?

✔  Developers of the game, due to:
– product placement (integration of brands and people) within the game (e.g. Yandex Plus card for CIS).
– advertising and monetisation of the game’s social networks (telegram – 53.2 million users, youtube – 34.1 million, twitter – 12.1 million readers).
– attracting investment through media exposure.

✔ Bloggers who review the game and talk about Airdrop.

✔ Telegram channels and communities that publish daily collections of cards and ciphers for the game.

Whether regular users who have been tapping Hamster for months can make money is a big question. Probably not.

What’s next?

In addition to Hamster, new games and new promises of earnings are popping up every day. Perhaps, in time, games in Telegram based on TON – will pull a large part of the audience from slots, options and online casinos. The main advantages: potential audience of 900 million Telegram users, simple mechanics, already built-in Wallet for deposit and withdrawal of funds (TON, USDT, BTC, Notcoin). Therefore, iGaming players have already started launching and testing tap-to-earn games. I think we will see more new projects on TON in the future.
