Binance today announced the Alpha Points system, which is an important indicator for assessing user activity and directly determines users' eligibility to participate in TGE and Alpha token airdrops. For example, the new TGE-OKZOO today requires at least 45 Alpha Points for subscription eligibility.

This tutorial will detail the points rules, share the optimal strategies to achieve scores, and help you efficiently meet the subscription threshold!

1. What is the Alpha Points system?

The Alpha Points system is a mechanism used by Binance to measure user engagement and activity, primarily calculating points through the following two components:

  • Asset balance: The total value of the user's spot and Alpha tokens held in the past 15 days.

  • Trading volume: The daily trading volume of users buying Alpha tokens in the past 15 days.

Points directly affect whether users can participate in Binance's TGE or airdrop activities. For example, the new TGE-OKZOO today requires at least 45 points for subscription eligibility.

Method to check points:

  • Open the Binance App.

  • Enter Alpha points in the search bar at the top of the homepage.

  • View your total points and detailed information.

2. Detailed explanation of points rules

1. Balance points rules (calculated daily)

Based on the total token value (in USD) held in the Binance exchange and MPC wallet, users can earn the following points daily:

Key points:

  • The minimum threshold is $100, earning 1 point.

  • The higher the balance, the more points earned, but the return on investment decreases incrementally (for example, $1,000 only earns 1 point more than $100).

2. Trading volume points rules (calculated daily)

Based on the daily trading volume (in USD) of users buying Alpha tokens, points are calculated as follows:

  • Purchase $2 to earn 1 point.

  • Subsequently, for each doubling of trading volume, points increase by 1 point.

Key points:

  • A trading volume of $32 can earn 5 points, which is the best cost-performance ratio.

  • Doubling trading volume (e.g., $128 earns 6 points) results in decreased marginal returns.

3. Current optimal score achievement strategy

By analyzing the rules, aiming for 45 points as a benefit, the following strategy can achieve the lowest cost and highest efficiency:

Strategy Overview:

  • Holding portion: Holding a total balance of $100 (1 point daily, including BNB and USDT).

  • Trading portion: Daily trading of $4 worth of Alpha tokens (2 points daily).

  • Total earnings: 3 points daily, accumulating 45 points over 15 days, reaching the subscription threshold.

Thus, for the twelfth TGE-OKZOO, as long as you achieve an average of 3 points daily, you can participate.

4. Subsequent target score prediction

Currently, the requirement of 45 points, averaging 3 points daily, should be a baseline to eliminate participation eligibility for certain 'low-quality' accounts. For example, users with a holding of $10,000 can participate in this TGE without any trading volume.

However, with the public disclosure of the score growth method, in the future, there will be more users with total holdings below $10,000 but with high trading volumes, and simply achieving 3 points daily will certainly not meet the next point requirements. Considering that some users are gaming the system to accumulate points, it is recommended to set a strategy targeting 6 points for the next period.

Strategy Overview (6 points standard):

  • Holding portion: Holding a total balance of $1,000 (2 points daily, including BNB and USDT).

  • Trading portion: Daily trading of $16 worth of Alpha tokens (4 points daily).

  • Total earnings: 6 points daily, accumulating 90 points over 15 days.

Why is it the optimal solution?

  • Holding portion:

    • $1,000 can earn 2 points, which is more efficient than $100 (1 point) and has moderate investment costs.

    • Increasing to $10,000 only earns 1 additional point (3 points), with a decreased cost-effectiveness, making it not worthwhile.

  • Trading portion:

    • $16 trading can earn 4 points, combined with holding 2 points, totaling 6 points, comfortably exceeding the 5-point threshold.

    • Increasing to $32 earns 5 points (total 7 points), with lower marginal returns and significant cost increases.

  • Time planning:

    • Accumulate 6 points daily over 15 days, for a total of 90 points, ensuring stable passage of the threshold and reserving room for future higher requirements.

5. Frequently Asked Questions

1. How many points are needed to participate in the next airdrop or TGE?

  • According to Binance's new regulations, a minimum of 3 points daily, totaling 45 points, is the threshold for subscription. It is recommended to aim for 6 points daily to ensure a stable approval and possibly receive a higher allocation.

2. Do points expire?

  • Points are calculated based on performance over the past 15 days, and it is recommended to continuously maintain holding and trading to avoid point decline.

3. Can one rely solely on holding or only on trading?

  • Yes, but with lower efficiency. For example:

    • Only holding $100 earns 15 points over 15 days, far below the 45 points.

    • Only trading $8 daily earns 3 points, totaling only 45 points over 15 days, which may not meet future standards.

  • A combination strategy (holding + trading) is more efficient and secure.

4. How to reduce costs?

  • Choose trading pairs with low fees (SOL chain).

  • Buy Alpha tokens during periods of low price volatility to prevent a decrease in holding value.
