This afternoon at 17:00 (UTC+8), Binance Alpha will launch an upgraded blind box airdrop.
Common versions account for 80% of the prize pool, rare versions account for 15%, and hidden versions account for 5%. The prize pool includes tokens from multiple projects, and rewards will be distributed according to one of the reward levels when claimed.
However, rather than whether you can draw a hidden version, I feel that one detail is worth understanding first: How many points do you need to receive this airdrop, and what costs do you need to pay?
First, let's look at the event rules.
How to participate in this blind box?
- Initial threshold: at least 245 Alpha points
- Each claim: consume 15 Alpha points
- Claiming method: first come, first served
- Threshold reduction mechanism: If the prize pool is not exhausted, the points threshold will automatically decrease by 5 points every 5 minutes
Note that 245 points is the initial threshold, and whether it decreases later depends on the distribution situation of the prize pool. Even if the points are met, it does not mean that you will definitely receive a reward.
In addition, the proportion of common, rare, and hidden versions does not equate to the corresponding reward rate. Specific tokens available and their value will conform to the information published on the event page.
How to accumulate Alpha points?
For friends who have not encountered Binance Alpha, you can first understand points as a type of participation eligibility for events.
It will affect users' eligibility to participate in certain token generation events (TGE) and Alpha airdrops. According to official explanations, points are mainly related to two types of data:
- Asset balance points: Calculated based on the asset balances that meet the rules on the Binance trading platform and Binance wallet.
- Transaction volume points: Calculated based on the volume of Binance Alpha token purchases that meet the rules.
Points are accumulated on a rolling basis, calculating balance points and transaction volume points obtained over the past 15 days.
Another detail: Selling Binance Alpha tokens will not earn Alpha points.
Therefore, points are not simply determined by how many times you have traded. The specific calculation method and asset requirements should still conform to the official rules of Binance.
Is it worth saving points for the airdrop?
This is the real question to consider before participating.
If you already hold assets that meet the rules, or usually research Alpha projects, you can check your points first to see if you meet the requirements for this event.
But if your points are significantly lacking, don’t rush to buy tokens just for the blind box.
The reason is simple: buying tokens may incur transaction fees and expose you to price volatility risks. Even if you finally receive the airdrop, the value of the reward may not cover the prior costs.
Moreover, the blind box has different reward levels, so what tokens you actually receive and their value have uncertainties. Hidden versions only account for 5%, so don’t treat it as expected earnings.

What to focus on at 5 PM?
If you plan to participate, you can confirm three things in advance:
- How many Alpha points you currently have and whether you meet the initial threshold.
- Claiming once requires consuming 15 points; is it worth it?
- After the event opens, whether there are changes in the prize pool distribution situation and points threshold.
This blind box indeed has a bit of novelty, but what is truly worth paying attention to is not just what hidden versions can be drawn, but whether the points threshold, claiming cost, and reward value are worthwhile.
First understand the rules, then decide whether to participate. Don’t incur costs you originally hadn’t planned to bear for an uncertain airdrop.
