Some notes This article is not for people who already understand this topic. Experts can skip it. The language used will be simple and casual so that everyone can approach it more easily. This is not instruction or financial advice. It is only a personal perspective to help you truly understand and maybe use it if needed. In my community across different platforms, I’ve noticed many questions like these: “Alpha tournaments are terrible. The token price crashes badly when rewards are distributed.” “The reward isn’t even enough to cover the participation fees.” “I really don’t get it. Why do people join just to end up losing money?” So what is the real problem with these tournaments? To sum it up, there are only two core issues: - Why do we compete in tournaments? - Why is the reward value high at first but much lower when we actually receive it, sometimes causing heavy losses? From the perspective of the page Mr V98, I’ll answer each of these questions. Take advantage of the weekend when you’re less busy and read everything carefully. And always remember: this guide is not teaching anyone what to do. It’s simply a personal sharing for those who don’t fully understand yet, so they can optimize profits. Let’s start.
First question I’ll give a direct example with specific numbers. You trade 66,536 volume per day (vol x4) or 131,072 (vol x4), which equals 16,384 real volume and 32,768 real volume respectively. The trading fee (if you trade carefully) is 3.6U per 16.3k real volume. For one scoring cycle, you will spend: 3.6 × 15 = 54U This is your stable maintenance cost. That means every 15 days, you automatically lose 54U (calculated for 16,384 real volume — calculate the rest yourself). So why compete? What do you gain and lose? When joining a tournament, obviously you spend more time and more trading fees. That’s what you think — correct, but not entirely.
Of course, competition costs time. However, it doesn’t always mean higher fees. Here’s a practical example: With normal volume 16,384 = 3.6U. If a tournament’s base volume (x1) is 245,760, you spend about 54U. If it reaches 300k real volume, you spend 66U. Now stop and think. If you receive a bad reward of 30U: 66U – 30U = 36U How does that look? 36U < 54U fixed cost. (* Experts reading this might find this funny or oversimplified. But again, this article is not for experts. Explaining this perfectly is difficult because some tournaments are x1, some x4. The main point I want to address is the "disparity in fees"..*) HOWEVER, this rarely happens. Because if you trade carelessly during tournaments, the market can dump on you and you’ll pay much higher fees. So please trade very carefully and learn proper execution methods. BUT it’s not always pure risk. If you know about the incidents with LISA and Timi, two tokens that allowed trading at 3.2U per 16k real volume, when the market suddenly crashed 50–70% in one trade (for non-tournament traders), you’ll understand why many people quit Alpha after that crash. In this market, nothing is guaranteed. (* These calculations only consider tournament volume. Read everything and calculate yourself. Nobody joins only one tournament in 15 days.*) Failing tournaments comes down to your own calculations. Don’t blame others. If you choose to participate, you must accept the outcome. So what should we do?
Filter tournaments carefully If you lack experience, choose x4 tournaments to trade volume and compete at the same time Or if you trade x1 tournaments, combine them with x4 volume Choose tournaments with many slots and good rewards Accept the base fee difference And again: trade extremely carefully Spend more time calculating and managing your volume strategy * Everything above is only a simple example to help you understand the principle. It may not be 100% accurate because rewards are not fixed — you might profit or lose. But once you understand the logic, you should calculate everything yourself.* NOW TO THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION Why hedge (lock) tournament rewards? A real example with the current x4 tournament: $FIGHT When the tournament appeared, 5,770 reward tokens were worth 60U. But when rewards are distributed, they might only be worth 30U. So the solution is: Open a short position equal to the reward amount (5,770 tokens). I call this “locking the tournament reward.” This means: If price crashes → I still keep the value I want If price pumps → I still keep the value I want I hear many people say: “If it pumps hard, you’ll get liquidated” Hard to understand. If you join a tournament worth only 60U and you can afford the trading fees, how would hedging exactly 60U liquidate you? If you short more than the reward value, that’s no longer hedging. “Funding fees will eat all the profit” I usually don’t answer this. Because they’re not really asking. They simply don’t understand trading and just want to argue. Another very common and important question:
“FIGHT is only 45U now, much lower than before. Should we hedge now?” My answer: “How ambitious are you?” What are you expecting from an x4 tournament with nearly 7,000 slots and a 45U reward? If you’re confident the token will pump at distribution (like NIGHT), then maybe don’t hedge. But for many people, 45U is already big enough for a tournament with such low requirements. Make your own decision,I can’t say which is the most profitable. This is only an information channel. This is simply my personal perspective and sharing. Try it yourself (or don’t) Wish everyone a new way of looking at Alpha tournaments.

A WAY TO MAKE MONEY THAT MANY PEOPLE MAY OVERLOOK Temporarily forget about alpha, boosters, etc., and take some time to learn how to earn profits from Earn on the Binance Wallet, @Binance Vietnam Many people with small capital often ignore these events. However, if you pause for a moment, we can revisit a very familiar mechanism that MrV98 has reminded everyone about many times. It is similar to the “Equal Distribution” mechanism seen in previous Spot events, the Altcoin Festival Wave 4
and most recently the Enso Trading Tournament.
Let’s review some recent events so everyone can have a more visual, detailed, and easier understanding. You may notice that the two most recent Earn events, Venus and U Season 1, both used this mechanism. 1️⃣ Venus
If you research carefully, you will clearly see the “Equal Distribution” mechanism in PROMOTION A. How to participate: 1. Prepare collateral that meets the minimum requirement of the event 2. Deposit the asset as collateral and confirm the conversion ✅DONE Of course, not every event will provide high rewards. However, one thing is certain: we won’t lose money, since the fees are extremely low. That reason alone is enough for us to participate. And here is the reward distributed on March 4, 2026 — quite surprising.
2️⃣ Next is an event I also mentioned before: U Season 1, which took place from Feb 12 to Feb 18. If you study the event carefully, you will again see the equal distribution mechanism in Season 1 (it was not present in Season 2). The method is similar, and the fees are also extremely low. So why not give it a try? The rewards will be distributed in the coming period. Hopefully, they will be similar to the Venus rewards. There is one thing you might notice: I posted information about these two events very close to their ending time. So what’s the reason? The answer is: I also couldn’t be sure whether borrowing and repaying immediately before the event period ended would still qualify for rewards. Therefore, the best solution I could think of — to avoid having our funds locked for too long — was to participate in the final days of the event. This ensures that we definitely receive the rewards while not locking capital for too long. 🌟Overall, it’s quite simple, and I believe everything above is already sufficient. For upcoming events, take some time to read the details carefully, filter the information, and choose projects that suit you. Or simply follow me — MrV98 — and I will provide the necessary information. Good luck, my friend! 🍀 #CreatorpadVN #TrendingTopic #crypto $BNB $RIVER $POWER
💥Please get ready to claim the Binance Alpha airdrop and trade today at 16h (UTC+7)
This event features an updated Binance Alpha Box model, where the airdrop pool includes tokens from multiple projects. Users with at least 228 Binance Alpha Points can claim one token reward on a first-come, first-served basis. Claiming the airdrop will consume 15 Binance Alpha Points.
Additionally, this airdrop features three reward tiers: Common (80% of the reward pool), Rare (15%), and Super Rare (5%), each with different alpha box values. When claiming, users will be placed into one of these tiers. Rewards are distributed according to these tier proportions. If rewards are not fully distributed, the points threshold will automatically decrease by 5 points every 5 minutes. #binance #ALPHA $CHIP $TRADOOR
💥Join the Binance Alpha Tokenized Securities Trading Competition and share $150,000 in tokenized securities rewards!
🔸 Campaign Period: Apr 23, 10:00 UTC – Apr 30, 10:00 UTC 🔸 Click [Join] on the Binance Alpha campaign page to participate, both buy and sell trades made by users will be counted toward trading volume. 🔸 Trade Ondo tokenized securities on Binance Alpha, including GOOGLon, NVDAon, CRCLon, and more.
The $CHIP token has been rising regardless. If you were still holding 750 CHIP tokens from the airdrop, originally worth $42, their value has now exceeded $100. #TradingSignals #crypto $CHIP
So a new mechanism has appeared in the Alpha tournament. Promotion Period: 2026-04-22 13:00 (UTC) to 2026-04-29 13:00 (UTC) General Rules: Participants will be ranked according to their total purchase volume on JCT during the Promotion Period. The top 2,250 users by purchase volume of JCT tokens during the Promotion Period will share 36,877,500 JCT tokens equally (= 16,390 JCT per user). Early Bird Boost Multiplier: Users can now trade earlier to earn more. In the Promotion Period, earlier trades will receive a higher multiplier, which boosts a user’s base trading volume. Daily Effective Trading Volume is calculated as follows: Daily Effective Trading Volume = Actual Trading Volume * Early Bird Boost Multiplier Note: *Total trading volume for the competition is the sum of daily effective trading volume during the Promotion Period. Users’ base trading volume generated during the following days in the Promotion Period will receive the corresponding multiplier when calculating their rankings:
Example: If a user trades $10,000 worth of eligible token on Day 1, the effective trading volume counted toward the ranking will be $14,000. The same $10,000 traded on Day 7 would only count as $10,000. #ALPHA #crypto $JCT
🔸 Trade JCT with $100K worth of rewards up for grabs. 🔸 Join the Binance App event page to start tracking trade volume. 🔸 New mechanic: Early Bird Multiplier — the earlier you trade, the higher your boost. Day 1 trades get a 1.4x multiplier! 🔸 Only buy volume counts (selling is excluded). #alpha $JCT
After the unexpected airdrop yesterday, $CHIP has surged strongly. The value of the airdrop at the moment is around ~67U. Are you still holding? #TradingSignals #news $CHIP
💥The rewards from the $BARD Spot trading tournament are approaching the distribution date. If you haven’t anchored earlier or forgot to anchor after the tournament ended at the price of 0.34/token, you can consider choosing an anchor point that suits you. Based on the current value and my trading volume, I’m currently holding a profit of over 65U.
Anchoring below 0.3/token, as many people suggested, is actually not an appropriate point. And now is when things are starting to look better. #crypto #trading $BARD
Tôi đang thử 1 cách đơn giản với cặp giao dịch $XAU . Phân tích mọi thứ theo cách vẫn thường làm và mở Binance Ai Pro để xem cách nó suy nghĩ về thị trường ra sao Ban đầu, tôi nghĩ kết quả sẽ khá giống nhau. Nhưng thực tế thì khác
Phân tích truyền thống: Nó là việc tôi đọc mô hình nến, xác định trendline, tìm vùng kháng cự và hỗ trợ, xác định Finonacci, cùng hàng tá chỉ báo từ RSI, MACD,… và tìm điểm vào với volume phù hợp , nó mất rất nhiều thời gian tuy nhiên tôi biết rõ khi nào tôi nên đặt lệnh Nhưng, tôi chỉ thấy những gì tôi hiểu Phân tích bằng Binance AI Pro lại là 1 vấn đề khác Dữ liệu trả về ngay lập tức, rất nhiều kích bản được đưa ra cùng các gốc nhìn, Cực kì chi tiết về các chỉ số và gốc nhìn, các tín hiệu và thông tin bất thường mà tôi không thể xác định Đây là 1 vấn đề cực lớn. Nó không thay đổi quyết định của tôi nhưng đang cho tôi 1 gốc nhìn quản trị rủi ro khác Khác biệt ở đây là gì? - Tốc độ xử lý dữ liệu - gốc nhìn và phân tích chi tiết tới mức... cực đoan - Sentiment thị trường Nhưng không phải mọi thứ là tốt - AI không hiểu tôi đang suy nghĩ gì và cũng không chịu trách nhiệm về thông tin nó cung cấp - Và nếu quá dựa vào nó, tôi không thể biết khi nào nó sai, đôi khi dữ liệu cũng sẽ xảy ra vấn đề, và thiệt hại sẽ là con số trong tài khoản của tôi Kết luận - AI không làm việc phân tích truyền thống trở nên tệ đi, nó làm mọi tứ trở nên rõ ràng hơn - Kết hợp cả 2 là cách mở ra nhiều vùng mới , đây là công cụ tuyệt vời để kiểm tra dữ liệu mà tôi đã tự phân tích ------------------------- Tuyên bố từ chối trách nhiệm: Giao dịch liên quan đến rủi ro. Các đầu ra do AI tạo ra không phải là lời khuyên tài chính. Hiệu suất trong quá khứ không đảm bảo kết quả trong tương lai. Vui lòng kiểm tra khả năng có sản phẩm trong khu vực của bạn. @Binance Vietnam #BinanceAIPro $XAU
