All brothers who have been struggling in Binance Alpha, pay attention! The recent changes in Alpha scoring rules hide the management's 'big moves' — from the previous 200-point projects where everyone was fighting for, to the newly released 230-point projects being changed to 'first come, first served'. This is not just a simple rule adjustment; it is the management 'precisely targeting studios', forcing everyone to move towards 'premium accounts'! Today, let's peel back the logic behind this; those who understand it will be able to avoid pitfalls in Alpha and steadily grasp high returns in the future!
First, let’s talk about how exaggerated the 'chaos of studios' is! Many people may not know that those accounts that can easily grab Alpha projects and score high points are mostly 'machine accounts' controlled by studios: they only store 100 U in a single account to meet the threshold, but use scripts to automatically brush transaction volume — while you manually trade 3 times a day, their scripts can continuously brush 100 transactions for 24 hours; while you stay up late waiting for airdrops, their scripts lock in spots 10 minutes in advance, leaving ordinary users with no chance! What’s even more frustrating is that the project parties' token quotas for Alpha are limited, and as a result, 80% are snatched away by these studios, leaving ordinary users either unable to grab any or only able to buy the overpriced chips thrown out by the studios, effectively being 'harvested'!
The management of Binance has long seen this point; this adjustment of the Alpha scoring rules is a clear signal of 'anti-studio':
From 'snatching head-on' to 'first come, first served': previously, 200-point projects relied on 'speed + scripts', giving studios a huge advantage; now, 230-point projects have changed to 'first come, first served'. It seems simple, but it is actually screening 'real active users' — most of the machine accounts from studios are mass-registered 'zombie accounts', making it difficult to reach 230 points, while truly well-managed premium accounts can easily meet the standards and obtain entry qualifications;
Continuously optimizing policies to force an increase in 'single account weight': from the previous adjustment of scoring rules to the current changes in scoring thresholds, the management has been listening to ordinary users' opinions, with the core idea being to raise the 'single account weight' — it is no longer about studios winning by having 'more accounts', but ordinary users making money by having 'better accounts'. This is also why more and more old players have recently discovered that the returns from premium accounts are higher than those from a pile of volume accounts combined!
So what exactly is a 'premium account'? My personal understanding is that it is a 'high-quality account with a base of 10,000 U', and this is definitely the 'easiest and most profitable' way in Alpha! Imagine this: a premium account doesn't need to frantically brush transactions or use scripts like studios; as long as it completes Alpha tasks normally and maintains stable positions, it can earn high scores and prioritize project grabs; more importantly, the management is likely to further lean towards premium accounts in the future — for instance, giving premium accounts higher airdrop quotas and lower participation thresholds, or even possibly directly restricting studios' 'multi-account operations'. By then, the earnings of a premium account could really equal that of 100 machine accounts from a studio!
Let’s do some math: a studio with 100 machine accounts, each storing 100 U, has a total investment of 10,000 U, but needs to spend a lot of cost maintaining scripts and dealing with account risk control, and the tokens they snatch have to be sold back at a low price to break even; while with a single premium account investing 10,000 U, there's no need for all those complicated operations — relying on high weight can steadily obtain project quotas, and when the token rises, it can be sold for high and stable returns without worrying about being banned for reverse harvesting! This comparison makes it clear who is getting the better deal!
Finally, a reminder to all users participating in Alpha: don’t follow the trend and create a bunch of volume accounts anymore! The direction of the management's reforms is already very clear — anti-studio and promoting premium accounts. In the future, volume accounts will become increasingly difficult to survive; either they won’t be able to grab projects or will be found out by the platform and banned for violations, which is likely to be 'laborious and thankless'; while premium accounts will become more desirable, and profit margins will only widen. I suggest everyone start integrating their accounts gradually, concentrating resources on 1-2 premium accounts, and following the management's rhythm to make long-term profits in Alpha!
Remember: in the crypto world, following the direction of the platform's reforms is always more reliable than going against the trend. The 'premium account bonus period' of Binance Alpha has now begun; don’t wait until others profit from premium accounts and then regret not adjusting your strategy earlier!
