In the race for airdrops and token launches (TGE), Binance continues to innovate. A new feature called Alpha Points Boost now allows users to earn even more rewards by taking certain strategic actions.
But what exactly are Alpha Points, what are they for, and especially how to earn them more easily? I’ll explain everything today 👇
🧠 What are Alpha Points?
Alpha Points are a point system created by Binance to reward active users in its Web3 ecosystem: notably Binance Alpha, the new platform dedicated to quality crypto projects, and the Binance wallet.
These points allow:
Participate in exclusive airdrops,
To be eligible for certain TGEs (Token Generation Events),
And sometimes even receive free tokens directly.
Points are updated daily and calculated on a rolling 15-day basis. The more you accumulate, the more likely you are to receive rewards.
🧮 How are Alpha Points calculated?
Alpha Points are divided into 2 main types:
1. Balance Points – Based on your crypto balance
Every day, Binance takes a snapshot of your balance in your Spot account + your Binance Web3 wallet.
👉 If you hold tokens that have already been listed on Binance Alpha, you automatically receive points.
2. Volume Points – Based on your purchases of Alpha tokens
You earn points by buying Alpha tokens on Binance or via your wallet.
Here is an indicative scale:
Purchase amount / day
Alpha Points
$2=1 point
$4=2 points
$8=3 points
$16=4 points
$32=5 points
$64=6 points
$128=7 points
Tip: It’s better to spread your purchases over several days to accumulate more points than one large one-time purchase.
🚀 New: Alpha Points Boost (Double Points)
Since May 1, 2025, Binance has launched a special offer to double your Alpha Points under certain conditions:
💡 You earn 2x more points if you:
Buy an Alpha token on the BSC network (Binance Smart Chain)
Use a Limit order instead of an instant buy.
⚠️ If you combine the two (BSC token + Limit Order), the boost does not stack: you do not earn x4, but always x2.
📊 Concrete Example
Let's imagine you make the following transactions:
Immediate purchase of $100 of token ABC (non-BSC)
Immediate purchase of $110 of token XYZ (on BSC)
Limit order of $120 on token ABC
Limit order of $130 on token XYZ (on BSC)
Calculation of Alpha Volume:
Alpha Volume =
100 (normal purchase) +
(110 × 2) [boosted BSC purchase] +
(120 × 2) [boosted limit order] +
(130 × 2) [boosted limit order on BSC]
= 100 + 220 + 240 + 260 = $820
👉 With $820 of Alpha Volume, you can earn about 9 Alpha points (according to the scale).
🛠️ Tips to optimize your Alpha Points
Here are some simple tips to earn maximum points without blowing your budget:
Spread your purchases each day instead of doing everything at once.
Prioritize tokens on the BSC network, even for small amounts.
Use limit orders as much as possible.
Keep a minimum balance of Alpha tokens in your wallet to earn additional Balance Points.
📱 Where to check your Alpha Points?
You can track your score directly on the Binance Alpha interface (via the mobile app or website).
Points are updated daily, so you can easily track your progress.
🏁 Conclusion
The Alpha Points Boost system is a great opportunity for Binance users who want to be at the forefront of airdrops and new Web3 projects.
No need to be an expert:
📌 Just make strategic purchases, use the right tools (Limit Orders + BSC), and keep an eye on your points.
👉 Don’t wait until the end of the campaign, start accumulating now to not miss out on upcoming token distributions.
