A Nigerian pharmacist, Bello Musa (@pharm_musa on X), has publicly expressed his disappointment and frustration with cryptocurrency gaming platform Hamster Kombat. Bello resigned from his job, anticipating significant returns from Hamster Kombat’s token disbursement on September 21st, after dedicating over two months to the crypto game.
However, he received unexpectedly low returns, leading him to label Hamster Kombat a “scam” and share his emotional distress on social media.
In his viral post, Bello revealed:
Resigning from his long-standing job in anticipation of substantial token rewards
Feeling devastated, emotionally traumatized, and uncertain about his future
Facing mockery and threats from his former Head of Department
Reactions to Bello’s post have been mixed:
Sympathy and support from those criticizing predatory crypto schemes
Ridicule and skepticism towards Bello’s decision to quit a stable job for digital tokens
Calls for caution and responsible investment in the cryptocurrency space
Bello’s experience serves as a cautionary tale about the risks and uncertainties associated with cryptocurrency investments and the importance of thorough research before making financial decisions.
