Higher points, smaller gains: Is the Binance Alpha Program pricing out small traders?

The Binance Alpha program has increased its airdrop threshold to 233 points, drawing scrutiny over accessibility for smaller traders. While many are exiting due to diminished returns relative to the effort, a significant trading volume of 17 billion USD persists.

Despite the exit of some smaller participants, around 460,000 traders are still engaged with Binance Alpha. This suggests that the program continues to attract large investments thanks to incentives that favor higher trading volume, benefiting larger investors at the expense of smaller accounts.
