"Hamster Kombat Launches Gaming-Focused L2 Blockchain on TON"

Telegram-based gaming platform Hamster Kombat has launched its gaming-focused Layer-2 (L2) blockchain, Hamster Network, on The Open Network (TON). This marks a significant milestone in blockchain gaming, as Hamster Network is the first L2 solution tailored specifically for gaming within the TON ecosystem.

Hamster Kombat aims to provide a highly scalable and low-cost infrastructure for decentralized gaming applications. The platform leverages TON’s technology to enhance Web3 gaming experiences. Hamster Kombat expressed enthusiasm for the launch, emphasizing its partnership with TON to realize this vision.

TON Virtual Machine powers Hamster Network, ensuring compatibility with The Open Network’s existing smart contracts. This seamless integration enables developers to port their decentralized applications (dApps) onto the Hamster Network without significant modifications. All proof records generated by Hamster Network are posted to TON’s Layer-1 blockchain, guaranteeing security and decentralization.

The infrastructure is operational, featuring an integrated wallet, a canonical bridge, and a dedicated decentralized exchange (DEX). Multiple developers are actively building new gaming experiences on the platform. The launch of Hamster Network follows earlier reports hinting at plans to introduce an exclusive L2 blockchain on TON. The crypto and gaming communities have greeted the project with excitement.

Hamster Kombat encourages community participation in stress-testing the network through its initiative, Hamster Boost. Users can engage in blockchain testing quests and earn bounties and rewards for their contributions. This would help ensure the network is strong before broader adoption.

The launch of Hamster Network aligns with Telegram’s deepening involvement in the TON ecosystem. Recently, Telegram solidified TON’s position as its exclusive crypto infrastructure provider, further strengthening the network’s credibility and adoption potential. With Telegram’s nearly one billion users and seamless Web3 mini-app integrations, TON’s ecosystem—now enhanced by Hamster Network—could become a dominant force in blockchain gaming and decentralized applications.
