Binance has today unveiled the Alpha Points System, an important metric for assessing user activity, which directly determines user eligibility for participating in TGE and Alpha token airdrops. For example, today's new TGE-OKZOO requires at least 45 Alpha points for subscription eligibility.

This tutorial will detail the scoring rules, share the optimal scoring strategies, and help you efficiently meet the subscription threshold!

I. What is the Alpha Points System?

The Alpha Points System is a mechanism used by Binance to measure user participation and activity, primarily calculating points through the following two parts:

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

  • Trading Volume: The daily trading amount of Alpha tokens purchased by the user over the past 15 days.

Points directly affect whether users can participate in Binance's TGE or airdrop activities. For example, today's new TGE-OKZOO 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.

II. Detailed Explanation of Scoring Rules

1. Balance Point Rules (calculated daily)

Based on the total value (in USD) of tokens held in the user's Binance exchange and MPC wallet, the following points can be earned daily:

Key Points:

  • The minimum threshold is $100 to earn 1 point.

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

2. Trading Volume Point Rules (calculated daily)

Points are calculated based on the user's daily trading amount of Alpha tokens (in USD) according to the following rules:

  • Purchase $2 to earn 1 point.

  • After that, doubling the trading amount will increase points by 1.

Key Points:

  • Reaching a trading volume of $32 earns 5 points, providing the best cost-performance ratio.

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

III. Current Optimal Scoring Strategies

By analyzing the rules, using 45 points as a benefit, the following strategies can achieve the lowest cost and highest efficiency:

Strategy Overview:

  • Holding Part: Hold a total balance of $100 (1 point daily, including BNB, USDT, etc.).

  • Trading Part: Trade $4 of Alpha tokens daily (2 points daily).

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

Thus, for the twelfth phase TGE-OKZOO, as long as an average of 3 points per day is achieved, participation is possible.

IV. Future Target Point Predictions

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

However, as the scoring method becomes public, there will be more users with total holdings below $10,000 but high trading volumes, and simply earning 3 points daily will not meet the next point requirements. Considering that certain power users and studios are even bulk scoring, it is recommended to set the next strategy based on 6 points.

Strategy Overview (6 points standard):

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

  • Trading Part: Trade $16 of Alpha tokens daily (4 points daily).

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

Why is this the optimal solution?

  • Holding Part:

    • $1,000 earns 2 points, which is more efficient compared to $100 (1 point), and the investment cost is moderate.

    • Increasing to $10,000 only adds 1 point (3 points), the cost-effectiveness ratio declines, making it unprofitable.

  • Trading Part:

    • Trading $16 earns 4 points, combined with 2 points from holding, totaling 6 points, comfortably exceeding the 5 points threshold.

    • Increasing to $32 earns 5 points (totaling 7 points), with lower marginal returns and significantly increased costs.

  • Time Planning:

    • Accumulate 6 points daily over 15 days, totaling 90 points, ensuring a safe pass through the threshold and leaving room for higher future requirements.

V. Frequently Asked Questions

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

  • According to Binance's new regulations, earning 3 points daily for a total of 45 points is the minimum threshold for subscription. It is recommended to aim for 6 points daily to ensure a safe pass through the review and possibly obtain a higher allocation.

2. Will 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 trading?

  • Yes, but it is less efficient. For example:

    • Holding only $100 earns 15 points over 15 days, far below the required 45 points.

    • Trading only $8 earns 3 points daily, totaling only 45 points over 15 days, which may not meet the standards later on.

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

4. How to reduce costs?

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

  • Purchase Alpha tokens during low price volatility to prevent a decline in holding value.#ALPHA
