The Binance Alpha airdrop has two key time points corresponding to two different point threshold collection phases, which significantly impact participants.
The first phase is only open to accounts that reach the high threshold X for Alpha points, ensuring users receive airdrop quotas unaffected by rush buying, with points being deducted simultaneously. The second phase begins after the first phase ends, with the threshold reduced to Y (Y<X), but it operates on a first-come, first-served basis, and the activity ends once the prize pool is exhausted.
From an impact perspective, high-scoring users can stably obtain airdrops in the first phase, while low-scoring users have opportunities in the second phase but must compete with many participants, and popular projects may be claimed in the first phase.
Based on this, the following strategies are formulated: First, users need to confirm their Alpha points balance in advance. If the points reach the high threshold X, they should promptly complete the application when the first phase starts to ensure they receive the airdrop. If points are insufficient, they need to closely monitor the second phase, prepare before it starts, and act quickly to claim once the activity begins. In daily operations, they should continue to accumulate points through trading, staking, and other activities within the Binance ecosystem to have more opportunities for future airdrops.
