Opening: The "New Track" in the Points Ecosystem
Binance Alpha Points System is like a battle for "points territory" in the cryptocurrency world. Since the rule update in May 2025, the competition has become increasingly intense. The threshold for $BOOP airdrop has soared to 137 points, with some players reaching 150 points in just 15 days, maintaining a daily average of 10-12 points, truly embodying the "grinding king" spirit. These points are not just a simple number game; they directly determine whether you can get the "entry ticket" to the Web3 world - whether participating in Token Generation Events (TGE) or grabbing an airdrop, points are the hard truth.
Today, we will deeply analyze the rules of Binance Alpha Points, combine on-chain data, and sort out a low-cost, high-efficiency point-scoring strategy to help you stand out in this points race and firmly grasp the Web3 dividend.
Chapter One: Points Rule Breakdown, Know Yourself and Your Enemy
1.1 What are Binance Alpha Points?
Binance Alpha Points are a points system specifically designed to assess user activity, mainly used to measure your participation in the Binance Alpha section and Binance wallet ecosystem. The points directly determine whether you can participate in Token Generation Events (TGE) or Alpha token airdrops. Simply put, points are your "ticket", and the higher the points, the more opportunities you have.
1.2 What are Binance Alpha Tokens?
Binance Alpha tokens refer to a special type of token displayed in the Binance Alpha section. Binance Alpha officially debuted on December 17, 2024, dedicated to discovering early-stage projects with growth potential in the Web3 ecosystem. These tokens are usually tokens of emerging projects, some of which may have the opportunity to be listed on Binance spot markets in the future, but not all tokens will successfully list, so investment requires caution.
1.3 How are Points Calculated?
Binance Alpha Points consist of two parts: balance points and trading volume points, with the final score being the daily average sum of the past 15 days. Daily points are snapshots based on your asset balance and trading behavior, with the snapshot time zone being UTC, ensuring fair global user participation.
- Balance Points: Based on the total asset balance in your Binance CEX account (main account) and non-custodial wallet (including Alpha tokens and tokens previously displayed in the Alpha section and now listed on spot markets). Sub-account balances will be merged into the main account for calculation and cannot be inflated by dispersing funds.
- Trading Volume Points: Based on the total amount of Alpha tokens purchased on the Binance Alpha platform and non-custodial wallet (only buy orders count, sell orders do not). Trading volume points only look at the purchase amount and are not affected by subsequent sales. For example, if you buy tokens worth $600 and then sell $500, points will still be calculated based on $600. Token value is calculated at the dollar equivalent market price at the time of transaction to ensure point fairness.
Even more exciting is that starting May 1st, Binance launched a double points activity. If you purchase Alpha tokens through Binance Smart Chain (BSC) or use limit orders to buy any Alpha tokens, the trading volume will be directly doubled. For instance, a $10 BSC transaction will be calculated as $20, directly earning 10 points. This "buy one, get one" benefit is simply a gospel for point-scoring players.
To help you more intuitively understand the points rules, we have compiled the following table showing the specific calculation methods for balance points and trading volume points:
Note: Trading volume points add 1 point for each doubling, with balance snapshot time zone in UTC.
Through this table, you can clearly see that balance points grow slowly, while the doubling mechanism of trading volume points makes it the main force for point scoring.
Chapter Two: What Are Points Used For? The Rewards Are Not Small
You might wonder what's the point of working so hard to score points. The answer is: a lot! Alpha points directly determine whether you can participate in TGE and airdrop activities. TGE is an opportunity to invest in high-potential early-stage projects, with returns often being several to dozens of times. Airdrops are synonymous with "free stuff", such as the recent $BOOP airdrop, where you can get tokens for free just by meeting the points threshold, which could be worth hundreds of dollars.
Not to mention some cases from April. Some players, by precisely grasping the points rules and scoring points, directly earned over $2,000 in profits after participating in activities. Who wouldn't be tempted by such returns? Especially with the double points activity now open, the threshold has been lowered, giving everyone a good chance to "get on board". If you miss this wave, subsequent competition will only get more intense.
Chapter Three: Point Scoring Strategy Upgrade, Low Cost is King
Now we come to the main point: How to efficiently score points without making your wallet "cry"? The goal is to achieve a daily average of 10-12 points, aim for 150-180 points within 30 days, while controlling trading wear (fees and slippage) within a reasonable range. Here are three optimization strategies, combining the latest rules and on-chain trends, to help you achieve twice the result with half the effort.
3.1 Double Points Benefit: Clever Use of BSC and Limit Orders
The double points activity is currently the biggest bonus, especially suitable for BSC chain operations. BSC gas fees are extremely low, typically only $0.01 to $0.03 per transaction, with very high cost-effectiveness. On-chain data shows that tokens like $B2 have a trading volume proportion as high as 13%, with good liquidity and small price fluctuations, making them very suitable for high-frequency trading.
How to operate specifically? Suppose you trade $10 on BSC daily, during the activity this will be calculated as $20, directly earning 10 points, easily achieving the daily average goal. Using limit orders is even better. Limit orders mean you set a buy price (slightly lower than market price) and a sell price (slightly higher than market price), such as buying at $5 and selling at $5.02, repeatedly operating to accumulate trading volume while keeping slippage between 0.1% to 0.2%. Calculating this way, you could accumulate 300 points in 30 days, with trading costs around $30 to $60, which is quite cost-effective.
3.2 Cost-Effectiveness of Low Gas Chains: Solana and Sonic
If you're more concerned about cost control, Solana and Sonic chains are worth trying. Solana's gas fees are usually less than $0.01, with hot on-chain tokens like $KMNO having a trading volume proportion exceeding 30%, with extremely good liquidity, suitable for small, high-frequency trades. Sonic chain fees are even lower, with recent activity bonuses, and token $Anon is a good choice.
A feasible plan is to trade $100 to $200 daily on the Sonic chain. Trading $2 to $5 each time, completing 50 to 100 trades, would give base points of 50 to 100. With double bonus, it might reach 100 to 200 points. Controlling slippage at 0.1%, daily costs would be around $2, totaling $60 in 30 days, allowing you to score 3000 points. Solana's operation logic is similar but with more mature tokens, suitable for novice players.
3.3 Scoring Points While Investing: The Win-Win Path of Potential Tokens
If you have some market judgment, you can try the "scoring points + investing" approach. Choose tokens with appreciation potential, such as $gork, which has recently risen to the top three in trading volume rankings with considerable market heat. When operating, trade $5 to $10 each time, accumulate and hold some, waiting for appreciation. You can also use limit orders, setting low buy and high sell to reduce costs.
The beauty of this method is that you not only earn points but might also gain from token appreciation. For example, if you invest $300 in $gork, score 300 points in 30 days, and if the token appreciates by 50%, you could earn an additional $150, easily covering the $60 trading cost. However, be careful to choose tokens with stable K-line trends, avoid chasing highs, and prevent sudden price drops that could lead to losses.
To help you choose a strategy that suits you, we have compared the three methods:
From the table, it can be seen that the BSC strategy is suitable for players seeking stable efficiency, the Solana/Sonic strategy has low costs and high points, while the potential token strategy may bring additional returns but with slightly higher risks. You can choose the most suitable plan based on your needs.
Chapter Four: Breaking Through Bottlenecks and Sprinting Towards Higher Goals
The points arena has never been smooth sailing. Currently, many players are approaching 150 points, with a seemingly stable pace of 10-12 points daily, but trying to sprint to 180 points or higher feels like hitting an "invisible wall". Don't panic, here are a few tricks to help you break through the bottleneck and move towards higher goals.
Increase Trading Volume, Sprint for High Daily Points
The current pace of 10-12 points daily is mainly based on a trading volume of 20-24 dollars per day (after double bonus). If you want to break through the bottleneck, try increasing your daily trading volume to 200 dollars. With the double bonus, this is equivalent to a 400-dollar trading volume, allowing you to earn 200 points in a single day. Maintaining this pace for a few days can quickly widen the points gap. However, note that as trading volume increases, costs will also rise. It is recommended to operate in batches, with each trade of 5-10 dollars, avoiding the slippage risk of large one-time trades.
Multi-Chain Collaboration, Efficiency Doubled
Single-chain operation might trap you in an efficiency bottleneck. Try a multi-chain collaboration approach. For example, simultaneously scoring on BSC, Solana, and Sonic, with 50-70 dollars traded on each chain per day, totaling 150-210 dollars, easily reaching an average of 200 points daily. BSC is suitable for high-frequency trading, Solana has low costs, and Sonic may have activity bonuses - each has its advantages. Combining them not only diversifies risks but also enhances overall efficiency. Especially the Sonic chain, recent activities might bring additional point rewards, worth investing more effort.
Optimize Trading Periods, Catch Low Volatility Windows
Market fluctuations significantly impact scoring efficiency. Trading during periods of intense price volatility can greatly increase slippage, affecting cost control. It is recommended to choose relatively calm market periods, such as avoiding the volatility period after major news releases, or selecting the Asian session (Beijing time, 8 AM to 2 PM), when market liquidity is more stable and slippage can typically be controlled within 0.1%. Reasonably arranging trading times can elevate your scoring efficiency to the next level.
Utilize Tools, Enhance Operational Efficiency
If you manually operate every day, time costs might exhaust you. Try some automated tools, such as setting up automatic trading scripts through Binance API, pre-setting limit order buy and sell prices, letting the program complete high-frequency trading for you. This method is especially suitable for players with some technical background, significantly saving time while ensuring trading stability. However, be sure to test strategies thoroughly before using tools to avoid financial losses due to incorrect settings.
Chapter Five: Risk Control, Winning Steadily
Scoring might be exciting, but don't let your wallet suffer. In the points arena, winning steadily is the long-term path. Here are key risk control points to ensure your scoring journey is both efficient and safe.
