Key Takeaways
- 4.5 billion BOMB tokens worth over $4 million have been staked in the game’s sequel.
- The BOMB token has fallen by 89% since launching in mid-June.
- Capybobo is planning a Q3 2025 airdrop.
One of Telegram’s more controversial play-to-earn (P2E) Web3 games, Bombie (BOMB), is showing surprising signs of life.
Nearly half of all BOMB tokens are now staked in its sequel, Capybobo (previously called CapyBomb), according to a new update from the team.
The staking push is tied to a $1 million giveaway, part of a broader effort to revive community interest and rebuild trust after Bombie’s rocky airdrop rollout.
The team says it’s now focused on delivering a promised relaunch to turn things around.

Bombie Staked
According to Bombie’s latest update, just over 4.5 billion BOMB tokens, or 45% of the total supply, have been staked in the game’s sequel, Capybobo.
This amounts to roughly $4.2 million with BOMB trading at $0.00095.
It comes as part of a $1,000,000 staking program in Capybobo, which rewards players in the Tether (USDT) stablecoin, offering approximately 415% APY for staking their BOMB in-game.
Players can withdraw their earnings once every hour.
This event will run until July 15, and comes as part of Bombie’s pledge to “relaunch” and fix the mess that was its airdrop campaign.
Unfortunately, the project’s front man and spokesperson, Barry Lau, remains silent. Following the airdrop, Lau was scheduled to take part in an AMA with Bybit, but this never came to be.
The Sequel’s Success
As per the Telegram bot, Capabobo has attracted 892,448 monthly users. Shortly after launching toward the end of May, the game was clocking around 120,000 players.
It’s a solid turnout for the sequel to a game that has become one of the most disappointing airdrops in Web3 gaming history. The BOMB token has tanked 88% since launching.
The sunk-cost fallacy appears to be in play. Now players left holding heavy BOMB bags can now do one of two things: sell at a significant loss, or stake in Capybobo and hope that this game’s airdrop isn’t as disappointing as Bombie’s.
