On May 22, 2010, an American computer programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz exchanged "10,000 bitcoins" for 2 large pizzas, becoming the first real-world transaction using bitcoin in history. 15 years ago, the 10,000 bitcoins were worth only $41 (about NT$1,236), but now they are worth NT$32.2 billion, making them the most expensive pizzas in history.
Adventure Island $NXPC went live on Binance Alpha and the price keeps breaking through. Can it become a pioneer in blockchain gaming, or is it just a sentimental hype?
Why did $NXPC rise immediately upon launch? 🈶 Strong IP Attraction: MapleStory is Nexon's longest-running MMORPG and ranks among the top global revenue earners, boasting a large global fanbase.
🈶 Sentimental Effect: Web2 players see familiar characters on the blockchain, naturally triggering a wave of nostalgia and curiosity.
🈶 Backed by Binance Alpha: With official exposure and trading support, short-term funds are easily concentrated for speculation.
How to maintain the heat and become a turning point for blockchain games?
✅ Launch on-chain gaming content: If equipment drops, character development, and on-chain economic models can be linked, it will stimulate long-term retention.
✅ Design a transition path from Web2 to Web3: For example, allowing original MapleStory players to easily claim character NFTs with simple steps.
✅ Collaborate on activities with BNB Chain: Organize Alpha points, airdrops, trading missions, etc., to bring Web3 players into BSC.
✅ Maintain a stable development rhythm and community updates: Prevent the typical blockchain game cycle of explosive growth → silence → crash, by regularly releasing updates to keep things fresh.
If this wave is successful, $NXPC may not just be a short-term speculation, but a real turning point for blockchain games.
BINANCE Alpha today requires 205 points. Has it turned into a pay-to-win game? I used to think that Alpha Points would have a limit, but it turns out the only limit is me 🥲, I really can't keep up anymore!
From initially being able to get an airdrop with under 100 points, to now needing over 200 points, it shows that Binance Alpha has begun to shift from being "open to everyone" to "highly active, high-paying participants only."
With the early bonus period over, the focus has shifted to rewarding heavy participants, forcing users to continuously trade, hold Alpha coins, and participate in tasks to maintain competitiveness. It has essentially become a kind of Web3 VIP tier system.
For retail investors, spending time daily to participate in activities and complete tasks may not yield returns, and the feeling of being harvested is becoming increasingly strong.
The Binance Alpha game is gradually leaning towards the following direction: ❎ High holdings (user balance) × high trading volume × high operating frequency = points accelerator. ❎ Retail investors relying solely on daily trading + small interactions, even with double trading volume rewards, will not win against the monthly volume of large investors after several months. ❎ On the surface, it appears to be fair scoring, but in reality, it is a competition built on capital.
The pay-to-win model erodes the original intention of Web3. One of the core principles of Web3 is: decentralization, participation from everyone, fair distribution of resources, but what we see now with Alpha airdrops is: 🆖 A disguised "pay-to-participate system." 🆖 Retail investors without capital are excluded from the benefits. 🆖 Contrary to the original intention of "airdropping to real users."
What should retail investors do? ▶️ Adjust strategies, stop forcing Alpha, and if the cost and rewards are disproportionate, consider observing or giving up. ▶️ Look for other low-threshold, high-potential new platforms (exchanges). ▶️ Reverse operation, use the high threshold of Alpha to instead pick low-threshold but high-return projects and participate individually.
Binance Alpha has launched Puffer ($PUFFER) today. Alpha points reaching 186 can receive an airdrop of 362 PUFFER. Users with points between 147 and 185 and whose UID ends with 5 have a chance to receive a lucky airdrop.
Some say it's better to earn from Binance Alpha than to just earn rewards, did you earn today?🤨

Binance Alpha points rules have really become complicated
Binance's recent rules regarding Alpha points have really become complicated, from the initial 2+7 to now 2+12, still on the edge of falling apart; not just me, many people probably feel they can't keep up!!
It is evident that Binance is doing this to establish a more fair, sustainable participation mechanism, with levels of rewards and thresholds. But what impact does this have on veterans who started before May? What help does it provide to newcomers who just joined?
🔍1. Possible reasons and strategic considerations for establishing these rules
✅Increase trading activity and platform usage Double counting specific trading behaviors (e.g., limit orders, BSC chain Alpha) is aimed at guiding funds and operational preferences, encouraging users to use more controllable order methods, focusing on the BSC chain.

Obol Network ($OBOL) is a decentralized protocol focused on Ethereum staking infrastructure, aiming to improve the security, resilience and decentralization of the network through Distributed Validator Technology (DVT).
🧠Project Overview Obol Network is an open source protocol founded by the Obol Labs team in 2021. Its core goal is to establish a trust-minimized staking ecosystem where multiple participants can jointly manage a single validator, thereby reducing the risk of single point failure and improving the security and decentralization of the Ethereum PoS network.
New bonus scheme, for those who want to earn points, you might want to give it a try.
In simple terms, it means trading BSC Alpha, limit trading any Alpha, the trading volume is calculated as *2.
The advantage is that you can quickly increase your points, the disadvantage is that BSC has a larger loss, it's more recommended to rotate through each chain.
Many people say that when they just joined, they didn't have a chance to participate in the first few times and wanted to give up, but the points are calculated on a rolling basis over 15 days, if you give up, you really will never catch up!

The latest TGE from the Binance wallet — Hyperlane (HYPER)
The latest TGE from the Binance wallet — Hyperlane (HYPER) has arrived. Moreover, this time it's a double whammy; in addition to TGE, there are also HODLer Airdrops. In recent TGEs and token airdrop activities, there has been a particular emphasis on the number and amount of trades users conduct with Binance Alpha tokens as participation criteria. Some airdrop amounts even exceed your participation in the project 😏 Today, let's talk about the TGE and token airdrop of the Binance wallet:
1. What are these rules for? 🔴 Prevent bots 🤖 from participating: By requiring users to conduct actual transactions within a specific time, the possibility of bot or multiple account operations is reduced, ensuring airdrop resources are allocated to real (live) users.
The TGE of the Binance wallet today, along with previous airdrops, has increased the requirement of having previously traded Alpha tokens using Binance. Previously, there was a task that involved a conditional limited airdrop for those who had used exchange balances.
Let's summarize the above conditions as weekly interactive tasks; perhaps there will be more benefits in the future.
1. Exchange + wallet balance greater than 100U 2. Use the Binance wallet to trade Alpha tokens 3. Successfully exchange tokens using exchange balance
Conditions 2 and 3 can be completed at once; let's see if there are any rewards.
Binance announces that Bubblemaps (BMT) has become the 12th airdrop project on the HODLer Airdrops page.
Previously, users who subscribed to Simple Earn or On-Chain Yields with BNB from March 2 to March 6, 2025 (UTC) will receive the BMT airdrop. Details can be checked within 5 hours, and the airdrop will be distributed to spot accounts at least 1 hour before trading opens.
Binance will list the BMT/USDT, BMT/USDC, BMT/BNB, BMT/FDUSD, and BMT/TRY trading pairs on March 18, 2025, at 15:00 (UTC), and will mark Seed Tag. Users can start depositing BMT within 2 hours to prepare for trading.
