Binance has announced changes to the Alpha Points system for users trading Alpha Token-Alpha Token pairs. As of June 17, 2025, these trading pairs will no longer earn users Alpha Points.
Cancellation of Alpha Points
According to the official announcement, trading volume from Alpha Token-Alpha Token pairs will not be counted towards Alpha Points. This means that high trading volumes will not impact the accumulation of Alpha Points, which are usually used to unlock benefits or participate in Binance campaigns.
Exclusion of Liquidity from Calculations
Liquidity pool (LP) balances involving Alpha tokens will also be excluded from Alpha Point calculations. This decision will affect users who have provided liquidity to Alpha token pools in hopes of earning rewards through the Alpha program.
Impact on Trading Competitions
Alpha-to-Alpha trades will be completely excluded from Binance’s trading competitions, both current and future. These trades will not affect leaderboard positions or competition rankings.
The changes set to take effect on June 17, 2025, are significant for traders focusing on Alpha Token pairs for rewards or competition standings. Users will need to reconsider their trading strategies accordingly.
