The utmost supply cap of Hamster tokens is 100 billion, with 64.3 billion of them currently in circulation, according to data from CoinGecko. This decline was likely the result of a significant number of airdrop recipients unloading their tokens.

Hamster Kombat’s valuation is less than that of Notcoin, the first tap-to-earn token to be listed, with a market capitalization of over $871 million.

In essence, Hamster boasts a more extensive ecosystem than Notcoin. It has an impressive following of 14.3 million on X, 37.6 million YouTube subscribers, and more than 300 million participants.
