What Happened

There was a system issue during the airdrop event for Kyuzo’s Friends (KO) on Binance Alpha.

Because of the bug, some users who did not actually receive the KO tokens still saw a “claimed” status on the event page, making them think they got the airdrop when they didn’t.

This was clearly a mistake in Binance’s airdrop system — not a user error.

Binance’s Response / Solution

Binance will fully refund Alpha Points to all users who were affected by this bug.

There will be no deduction of Alpha Points for making this “claim” — meaning, users won’t lose points because of the mistake.

Importantly: Affected users do not need to take any further action to get their points back. The refund is supposed to happen automatically.

Additional Context on the KO Airdrop

The airdrop required at least 256 Alpha Points to participate.

If a user claimed, it would consume 15 Alpha Points.

The claim threshold (256 points) would decrease by 5 points every 5 minutes, if the reward pool wasn’t fully used.

Users needed to confirm their claim within 24 hours, otherwise they would forfeit the airdrop.

What This Means for Users

If you tried to claim but didn’t actually receive KO tokens: you should be fine, your Alpha Points will be refunded.

No extra action needed on your part to get the refund (according to Binance).

This is a user-protective decision: Binance is making sure people don’t lose out because of their system bug.
