【Binance Alpha Points Earnings and Cost Estimation】
Earnings: 2 Alpha airdrops per month + 2-4 IDO opportunities (not fixed). Expected total monthly earnings of 200-600 USD.
Costs: Capital occupation + Slippage + Transaction fees + Gas fees
- Capital occupation: 300 USD for a single order, assuming a 260 USD tier
- Slippage loss 0.5%, 0.5% * 260 = 1.3
- Transaction fee 0.3%, 0.3% * 260 = 0.78
- Gas fee, approximately 0.6 USD for a buy and sell on BSC
Total points over 15 days: (1 + 8) * 15 = 135 points, the cost for the 260 USD tier is around 45 USD.
I also calculated other tiers for reference:
- For the 130 USD tier, daily cost is 2 USD, total cost over 15 days is 30 USD, totaling 120 points;
- For the 260 USD tier, daily cost is 3 USD, total cost over 15 days is 45 USD, totaling 135 points.
The previous points threshold was 45 points. Considering that many people are participating, future airdrops will likely increase significantly, possibly exceeding 100 points.
Overall, single order monthly losses are within 100 USD, earnings are 200-600 USD, the risk-reward ratio is decent, but it is time-consuming.
