Is Binance Alpha Fueling or Fumbling the Crypto Community?

[Altcoiner007]

Back in the day, a Binance listing was pure rocket fuel—tokens would pump 100-200%, hyping the whole community into early birds profit. Fast-forward to now: Binance Alpha’s FCFS airdrops vanish in under a minute, demanding high criteria Feels like projects are cherry-picking influencers and crumbs for the rest of us farmers. $30-45 fees for $50-60 bags that often tank post-listing Meanwhile, BSC tokens hit Bitget Onchain the second they're live on-chain, before perhaps hitting Binance Alpha.

Isn't tracking Onchain the new way to game the system and score Binance listings before anyone else or game over for fair launches?

If you notice the cycle between 2024 Q3 - current date binance listing token didn't perform well. I agree with you in previous time listing a token on binance wasn't that easy to execute. It was like a dream to lists on binanace. Even if any tokens get listed in Binance Future it would have a 50-90% pumped. Spot listing would have generated a 4 to 5 fig profits for community legal user. Imo binance Alpha killed the traditional airdrop . Everyone is shifting now on Binance , and they way it's designed projects owners are giving drop to alpha user cause they need volume. By listing binance alpha they got a chance to generate a volume .  I also farm binance alpha points and I think it's profitable. Cause if your spent 100$ you can get 6-8 airdrop , if Minimum a drop is 40$ valued you would be generated $320 total in a month.

Binance alpha kinda double edged sword sometime it can help attract liquidity sometime it just outright dump because the product is just crap.

You might see less instant pump because binance alpha also allow low tier project to get listed into their alpha section, usually the good ones get listed in spot and futures.
The problem here is such thing as instant pump upon listing in binance won't happen forever, the same way how upbit listing has reached diminished hype and not all coin that get listed there got instant pump.

How does it work though? Yeah I noticed it too. It's watered down and not good.. before the market crash I went all in on BSC memes and thankfully got to see them within seconds of listing on Bitget onchain, made some gains too like PALU, BSC, GIGGLE.. that's whats been taking my attention.. cos the playground is leveled with that, no institutions, no manipulation just hardwork and guts.

In the past, Binance gained its reputation for listing new tokens, which enabled it to generate reasonable profits. This prompted token developers to engage with Binance and generate some benefits for retail traders in exchange for potential short-term profits for developers.

Currently, with Binance's popularity, listing requirements have become more difficult, and they are generating good returns from the fees they charge and because the retail license doesn't affect the price, developers are focusing on sharing profits with influencers more than the community.

i swear to God bro!! Like before a Binance listing was like free money & easy money!! coins pumped fast, everyone was kind of excited and early buyers made quick profits but now in this very disappointing 2025 a year of crypto pains, things are different. binance alpha makes it harder!! airdrops end in like seconds, rules are strict and fees almost wipe out the gains most normal traders only get small scraps while big influencers and insiders take the bigger share. that is why many smart traders don’t wait for binance anymore they just watch the on-chain moves instead!! by checking where money is flowing before a token even hits binance, they can buy early enough.

Your point about Alpha replacing traditional airdrops makes sense—projects are chasing volume, and Alpha’s a cheap ticket to visibility. But calling it profitable? I’m skeptical. Spending $100 to snag 6-8 airdrops sounds nice, but those $40 valuations are often inflated at launch and tank fast. I miss the era of 100% free profitable Airdrops. Just fill the form and hit submit.

What binance Alpha? You just need to trade on tokens listed on Binance Alpha. If you trade a token on Binance Alpha listed you will get a 4x boost on your trading Volume. That means in $100 buy you will get $400 volume. They only counts buy Volume.


Check this I've attached a screenshot. In trade option , look for alpha , you will se a calendar type Icon click on it. If you do volume today your points will be added tomorrow.



If you scroll down a bit , you will see the progress bar. Like your daily volume count. You will also find the necessary points breakdown there . I hope this will be helpful to you.


One more thing to be mentioned that, rn chinese community is pushing the Bsc chain. CZ has the full support for them that why BNB is uprising. Even though the whole marked crashed more than 30/40% dumped all the alts , Bnb recivered not only that it's now pumped 15% . Bsc chain rn surpassing the solana chain in terms of memecoin. Any memecoin is hitting 5/10M Mcap easily rn on Bsc chain. So ride the wave if you wants to be winners

The valuation for any alpha airdrop may vary depending on how much token you get combined with how much the price for each token in the market. Sometimes you earn around 40 - 60 bucks, but also possible to get like 100 - 200 bucks. It's totally depending on how smart you are in determining, which alpha airdrop is worthy to be claimed.

Currently, if any BSC token could almost instantly show up on Bitget OnChain check once you search with the CA.  If you spot it that early and if often could list on Binance, it's a good way to profit from early gems aside the hassle free way to catch on these tokens, there's reward for catching the gem early on their platform

That's the thing that holding me back from doing alpha, the money spent could be more than the airdrop I'm gonna receive.
As far as I know binance didn't only list top tier airdrop but the lesser known ones too as a result we got something like $EDEN where current value for alpha airdrop is just a tiny $8.

Has anyone here ever tracked the profitability? I'm honestly curious. It'd be great to have some insight.
Although I'm sure it's profitable because there are tons of people doing it, I believe it's sort of random as well whether you gonna make profit or not.

yes, that's right and you need to know how many tokens will be allocated for alpha and the value of the project that holds it, the participants who take part in it and the points that we get so that we can see the estimates that we can conclude that we can get. It does vary because each project is different, and yes, this alpha has a very high difference with airdrop runners or the initial community, to be honest, there are a lot of hunters who complain about the existence of Binance Alpha because usually they have more allocations.  than early adopters.
