About Alpha, should we still participate? The data tells you the truth.

After reviewing the airdrop data from the past two weeks, the situation is very clear. Simply put: for friends with a low balance score, the cost-effectiveness of participating in Alpha is indeed very low.

Core conclusion:

Balance score of 1: It is recommended to 'resign'. After a full month, the profit is negligible, purely working for the platform.

Balance score of 2: You can take a low-risk chance, but do not have too high expectations; the goal is to hit a big profit of over $50 to break even.

Balance score of 3 and above: You can still benefit a bit, but relying on this to gain significant profit is quite difficult.

Why do I say this? Look at the data:

Airdrop values are generally not high:

For recent projects, except for a very few like FOLKS ($93.9) and JCT ($51.5) which are considered significant profits, most airdrop values fall within the range of $10 - $30. On average, one airdrop might yield around $20-30.

High scores have become the norm, competition is fierce:

From historical data, the airdrop threshold has basically stabilized at above 220 points, with many projects even requiring over 235 points. This means you must almost fully achieve the trading points (16 points) to consistently receive rewards.

Your profits will be eroded by wear and the thresholds:

Assuming you have a balance score of 2: If you achieve 16 trading points, total score 270. Based on your provided wear calculation of 50U.

Receiving twice in a month: If each time you receive $30, total income $60, after deducting wear, the pure profit is only $10.

Receiving three times in a month: Total income $90, after deducting wear, pure profit is $40.

This does not even account for your time cost, it's completely 'hard-earned money'. You must encounter a big profit of $50+ for this month to be considered worthwhile.

The frequency of project launches is related to market conditions:

As you mentioned, in a poor market, quality projects are reluctant to launch TGE. Although there are many projects in the table, many of them have low market capitalization (MC) and airdrop values, indicating that the project parties themselves are also 'stingy'.
