It is precisely because of the cyclical points system that retail investors can barely catch up with the big players when their points are deducted during an airdrop.
If points accumulate continuously without cycling, big players can score 17 points a day while retail investors score around 11.
After consuming points to receive the airdrop, the points that big players have left are still higher than those of retail investors. Moreover, to limit the number of people meeting the criteria each time, the points required will only be raised, making it impossible for retail investors to even reach the threshold. They will never be able to receive an airdrop.
