Toncoin (TON) Sends Urgent Alert to Crypto Community, What to Know

As a seasoned analyst with years of experience navigating the tumultuous waters of the cryptosphere, I find myself both intrigued and cautious regarding the upcoming event on The Open Network (TON) blockchain. The anticipation surrounding Hamster Kombat’s token launch is palpable, given its massive user base of over 100 million monthly active players.


The blockchain network linked to Telegram, known as TON, recently issued a significant warning to the cryptocurrency community.

At 10:00 a.m. (UTC) on September 26, crypto users were warned by the TON team that the TON blockchain could undergo a significant stress test due to Hamster Kombat’s token minting operation.

On a recent Telegram update, TON announced that they anticipate higher activity on their blockchain due to the Hamster Kombat game project’s plan to mint coins directly onto the platform. This is an unprecedented, large-scale occurrence within our industry.

The notice is valid, as in August, the TON network encountered disruptions in block production due to an excessive load resulting from the minting of DOGS tokens. The widespread popularity of DOGS as a meme coin led to two separate incidents where the TON blockchain went offline for extended periods (up to hours) within a 24-hour timeframe, preventing the creation of blocks.

Similar to Dogs having a massive number of owners worldwide, Hamster Kombat boasts an equally impressive player base, leading to some apprehension regarding the TON blockchain due to its popularity. With over 100 million monthly active users, it’s no wonder there is excitement surrounding the Hamster Kombat game project.

Hamster Combat is a game on Telegram where you earn coins just by tapping. The objective is to give players real, tradeable cryptocurrency tokens as a reward for amassing these in-game coins through airdrops.

On September 26th, the Hamster Kombat airdrop is scheduled to occur within The Open Network (TON). On this very same day, the HMSTR token will be created and made available for trading on popular cryptocurrency exchanges. This event follows an earlier goal set in July that has now been successfully achieved.

Due to anticipation of higher demands from September 26th through the 29th, TON is reaching out to its validators for continuous communication. It’s crucial that any necessary emergency measures are taken within an hour if needed. Additionally, validators should monitor both their validator status and hardware condition during this specified period.
