Measured Alpha Best Scoring Path ‖ You can achieve the same loss and score 1 more point!

Yesterday, at the suggestion of a friend, I chose to perform currency-to-currency swaps, and after practical testing, today's score has been successfully credited, with lower losses and higher trading volume. Here are the steps——

1⃣ First, exchange 1050u for $KOGE in your wallet (counts as 1 trading volume)

2⃣ Swap $KOGE and $ZKJ in currency-to-currency exchanges, performing this operation 15 times (counts as 15 trading volumes)

3⃣ Finally, exchange $ZKJ back to U (does not count as trading volume)

By doing this, you only need to perform 17 operations to get 16 valid transactions, earning 16000*2=32000 (15 points), which reduces the workload by half compared to using U.

Now let’s talk about losses——

Previously, when swapping U-ZKJ, under extremely stable conditions, the loss for one round trip (counts as 1 trading volume) was around 0.21u, resulting in about 3.2u loss for 16 swaps.

Using the method above for swaps, the loss is about 2u, averaging 0.12u loss per operation, which is nearly half of the previous single transaction loss.

Many people are worried that this method won’t count towards scores; however, practical testing shows that this method is feasible. You can do double the trading volume with the same loss and earn 1 extra point, which means 15 extra points in 15 days.

Now let’s discuss some issues to pay attention to——

Yesterday, a widely circulated image showed that a guy exchanged 1845 ZKJ for only 0.03 KOGE, which is probably the main reason why everyone is hesitant to use this method.

That’s right, currency-to-currency swaps are not fully pegged, and if one side experiences extreme fluctuations, it could significantly increase your losses, with losses of over ten u possible.

Using this method requires attention to a few points:

1) The slippage for each transaction must be set to 0.01, and EVM protection must be enabled.

2) Before confirming each transaction, be sure to check how many coins you can expect to swap back; don’t click too quickly.

3) Before starting swaps, check the volatility of both coins; if there are significant short-term fluctuations, don’t proceed, and check again later.

The above are some tips regarding the latest scoring methods for Alpha;

If you don’t want to risk using this method, you can continue using the U-coin path for swapping, which incurs around 3.2k losses with a loss of about 3u, very stable, and I’ve confirmed with Binance customer service that it has no impact on ordinary users. Keep playing and dancing! #ALPHA
