#币安Alpha上新 Good grief, Binance's Alpha points airdrop model is simply a blatant way to harvest retail investors, while calling it ‘incentivizing activity’! I need to vent about the unfairness of this broken thing; I can’t just hold it in!
Firstly, this points system is clearly tailored for the wealthy and big players. Just look at those rules; how are points accumulated? It’s based on asset balance and the amount of Alpha tokens bought within 15 days! How can retail investors with their meager funds compete with those big players who casually throw down hundreds of thousands of USDT? To reach the 45-point threshold, you either need to have 10,000 USDT sitting in your wallet or buy 8 USDT worth of Alpha tokens continuously for 15 days. This is simply a pipe dream for ordinary players! Retail investors work hard to accumulate some coins, yet have to bear the risk of price fluctuations. A little misstep could lead to losses that exceed the airdrop rewards; suffering losses is considered light! Isn’t this just forcing retail investors to be bag holders? Binance, you really know how to play!
What’s more frustrating is that this model is like heaven for professional studios and hell for retail investors! Someone on X said it well: in all airdrops with transparent rules, the ultimate winners are always those studios with time, energy, and funds. How can retail investors keep an eye on trading and accumulate points every day? Ordinary people who are exhausted after work, where do they get the capital to compete with studios? This time the passing line is 45 points, next time it might be directly raised to 60 or even 100 points! This isn’t encouraging participation; it’s clearly treating retail investors as cannon fodder, filtering out the 'quality users' who can contribute transaction fees to Binance. Why is Binance so scheming?
Also, this points mechanism is essentially pushing up the demand for Alpha tokens in disguise. The project party and Binance are colluding to create a big picture, and retail investors have to foolishly jump in. Buying coins and not selling to accumulate points? Isn’t this forcing you to lock up your coins and become a long-term bag holder? In the end, the project party cashes out and runs away, Binance makes enough fees, and retail investors are left holding worthless tokens, crying with nowhere to turn! Someone on X criticized it well: Binance's trick can filter airdrop users, collect fees, and exploit the project party to harvest retail investors. It’s simply killing three birds with one stone! But what about retail investors? After all that effort, they can’t even touch the edge of the airdrop and end up as a joke running alongside!
The most absurd part is that Binance pretends this is ‘evaluating activity.’ What activity are you talking about? This is clearly a game of who has more money and who dares to gamble! Want to participate as a retail investor? Fine, first exchange your lunch money for BTC to accumulate points, and even if you go bankrupt, you might not qualify! Binance’s points system appears fair on the surface but is actually a blatant capital game. Poor people can’t even afford the entry ticket; what’s there to talk about airdrops? It’s simply ‘rich people get airdrops, and poor people watch the show’!
Maybe I really didn’t get the airdrop; this is slow, step by step. This rule is truly disgusting. If your points are low, you have no chance. This is also a contribution, and the platform doesn’t see you as a person at all. I suggest that points can be allocated proportionally in airdrops; that would be fairer for everyone!
In short, Binance's Alpha points airdrop model is just a harvesting machine dressed in the guise of rewards. Retail investors are being played around, while big players and studios are laughing all the way to the bank. If Binance really wants to be fair, why not just do a direct universal airdrop without all these flashy thresholds? Why force retail investors into a corner and play these capitalist tricks? It's really shameless! Retail brothers, wake up! Stop giving money to these vampires!
