About Binance alpha points being negative,

It's roughly like this,

It's easy to join, easy to leave, but hard to come back again.

Some big players with 4+17 have been liquidated these days and are done playing. They thought 15 days would clear to zero, but unexpectedly, there are still negative numbers.

Eating more is not necessarily good; if you have 18 points every day and stop grinding, every day you don't grind will deduct 17 points, leading to a negative score.

It's easy to get on, easy to get off, but hard to get back on again!

Alpha points are not suitable for those who try to take shortcuts; only honest and diligent people will see results.

No matter how you play, you can never outplay the rule makers.
