Alpha's purpose, Nini thinks, is probably like this:
1. Censoring the "wealth creation narrative" of second-tier exchanges, and listing all market-cap tokens; previously, this was a common method for second-tier exchanges to create a "wealth effect."
2. User defense battle: a "bloody replenishment" from loss to plunder, compensating for the decrease in trading fee revenue.
3. Utilizing Alpha to avoid the "dumping upon listing" issue on their own exchange, allowing Binance's "wealth effect" to reappear, manipulating supply and demand into a "bubble perpetual motion machine"
