On March 13, 2024, Bitcoin first broke through $73,000. The crypto world once again fell into collective madness: micro-cap altcoins surged tenfold in a day, AI narratives, MEME narratives, and RWA narratives took turns, and the Solana chain experienced traffic jams every day. Some people sold their homes in Beijing's third ring road to go all-in with 1000x leverage on BTC, while others borrowed at 30% annualized USDT to gamble on various 'pre-sales,' with their social circles filled with 'Thank you, Musk' and 'Next month, I’ll get a Maybach.' The hottest project called Libra Reserve claimed to be 1:1 pegged to the US dollar + 20% annualized, the founder remained anonymous, yet KOLs collectively endorsed it, raising $3.2 billion in 3 days. Three months later, on June 22, 2024, Libra Reserve suddenly closed withdrawals. Then came the exit scams, deletion of groups, and cancellation of accounts. $3.2 billion evaporated overnight, and victims formed hundreds of 'debt recovery groups.' Bitcoin plummeted from $73,000 all the way down to $48,000, with cries of liquidation echoing from leveraged traders. The person who sold their house to go all-in finally posted on Douban asking to borrow 5,000 yuan to pay property fees. In December 2025, Bitcoin returned to $100,000, and a new round of bull market slogans echoed: 'This time it’s really different.' People in the group began borrowing money, leveraging, and trusting KOLs again. History never misses a beat, it just changes the victims. Always remember: As long as someone promises 'principal protection with high returns,' it must be a scam; Once you start borrowing money to trade cryptocurrencies, the outcome is already written. Don't let the you of 2026 read the old news of 2025 with tears. $BTC {future}(BTCUSDT) $ETH {future}(ETHUSDT) $BNB {future}(BNBUSDT)
Binance Alpha Points Airdrop News Highlights Within 24 Hours In the current context of increased volatility in the cryptocurrency market, the Binance Alpha points airdrop mechanism has once again become the focus. On November 30, Binance officially announced the launch of the second wave of Subsquid (SQD) token airdrop benefits. Users holding at least 245 Alpha points can claim 500 SQD tokens through the Alpha event page at UTC 9:00 (Beijing time 17:00) on a first-come, first-served basis, until all 52,479 spots are filled or the event ends. If the rewards are not fully claimed, the points threshold will automatically decrease by 5 points every 5 minutes to ensure more users can participate. At the same time, claiming will consume 15 Alpha points, and users must confirm within 24 hours, otherwise it will be considered abandoned. This hot topic quickly ignited discussions on platform X, with the announcement from Binance's Chinese account binancezh receiving over 50,000 views. Community players are hotly debating “points bubble” and “surviving the bear market”. Some users are concerned that under the depletion of liquidity in the bear market, the Alpha model may face significant changes or suspension, but they also see potential in its on-chain lending point upgrade. Market data shows that the market capitalization of the Alpha ecosystem remains stable at $13 billion, with a slight increase in trading volume of 1.5%, far exceeding the overall market increase of 1.78%. The Alpha points rolling 15-day rule emphasizes continued activity to avoid idle expiration. As an innovative incentive from Binance, the Alpha airdrop not only distributes rewards but also drives users to delve into early-stage projects. Faced with high thresholds and risks of anti-farming, players need to optimize their positions and closely follow developments. In the future, this mechanism may evolve into a new way of DeFi lending, helping to break through the bear winter. In summary, Alpha is more than just an airdrop; it is also an ecological engine that is worth paying attention to and is indispensable. $BTC {future}(BTCUSDT) $ETH {future}(ETHUSDT) $BNB {future}(BNBUSDT)
