Uzbekistan authorities have not banned the Hamster Kombat game but warned against possible risks of withdrawing its tokens in the future.
Contrary to reports in local media, financial regulators in Uzbekistan have not prohibited citizens from playing the Hamster Kombat clicker game on Telegram.
Uzbekistan’s National Agency for Perspective Projects (NAPP), a major regulator overseeing e-commerce and the cryptocurrency industry, issued an announcement on June 25 clarifying the legal status of the Hamster Kombat game.
In the statement, the NAPP emphasized that Hamster Kombat is not a typical play-to-earn game, as its in-game coins do not have collateral or real utility.
