Goodbye, accompanied me for 3 months, starting from the exclusive TGE of SHELL, with a narrative that has a personal touch: When I first heard about the Binance Alpha points system, my mind was filled with anticipation. The exclusive TGE of SHELL felt like a shining starting point, like discovering a new continent! At that time, Alpha points were touted as the ticket to the 'early project observation pool,' where trading and holding could lead to airdrops and TGE opportunities, which made my blood boil with excitement. I quickly opened the Binance APP, studied the rules, asset balance, trading volume, and accumulated points bit by bit, watching the numbers rise, feeling like I was playing a money-making game. In the early stages, I was particularly excited, especially with the SHELL TGE, where the participation threshold wasn't too high, yet the returns were quite substantial. I remember staring at the points leaderboard every day, afraid of losing my eligibility for airdrops. The process of accumulating points felt a bit like 'farming,' needing patience to cultivate, calculating costs and returns. Trading a bit more frequently hurt with the fees, but thinking about the airdrop rewards, I gritted my teeth and continued. However, in the later stages, the rules changed, and the points system shifted from 'positive incentives' to feeling a bit like 'reverse plunder.' Points were deducted for not trading, and returns began to shrink, which made me a bit discouraged. Especially when I saw people online saying that the bonus period was nearly over and that the days of high profits might be behind us, I felt mixed emotions. Looking back from SHELL TGE to now with Alpha points, I made some profits but also spent quite a bit of energy. I still need to adjust my strategy, control costs, and continue looking for new opportunities!
