Why tokens from the TON ecosystem are down and what’s next


Dynamics of TON ecosystem tokens looks like the market's reaction to the change in token distribution conditions within the framework of the Hamster Kombat game project. Users received only 88.75% of the expected amount of HMSTR, while the remainder was reserved until 2025. This, of course, caused disappointment and massive selling. Also, pressure on the token caused an overall decline in the crypto market amid the escalation of the conflict between Israel and Iran which led to a 30-50% decline compared to all-time highs.

However, it should be noted that these tokens are by nature so-called "marketing" coins designed to attract new users to the TON ecosystem. For many holders, this was only a "free" opportunity - to get free tokens, and not a long-term investment. Therefore, it’s logical that after the initial wave of distribution, interest in such projects began to fade.

As for the prospects of a return to growth, much will depend on the ability of the developers to hold the interest of their audience, offering real value and practical application to their tokens. The price may rise, but the volumes will decrease every day, as new projects appear on the market.
