Binance Alpha Launches Round 2 STABLE Airdrop With a 240 Alpha Points Threshold
Binance Alpha Launches Round 2 STABLE Airdrop With a 240 Alpha Points Threshold
Binance Alpha has opened a second-round airdrop for Stable ( STABLE ), continuing its points-based distribution model that has become a major driver of user attention across centralized exchange wallets and onchain trading hubs.
According to a report citing Binance’s official Binance Wallet channel, users with at least 240 Binance Alpha Points can claim 1,845 STABLE tokens on a first-come, first-served basis. If the reward pool is not fully distributed, the eligibility threshold will drop by 5 points every 5 minutes. Claiming the airdrop consumes 15 Alpha Points.

Key details: Round 2 STABLE airdrop rules you should know
Here’s the core mechanic in plain terms:
- Initial eligibility: ≥ 240 Alpha Points
- Reward per eligible user: 1,845 STABLE
- Distribution type: First come, first served ( pool can be exhausted )
- Dynamic threshold: If rewards remain, the threshold auto-decreases by 5 points every 5 minutes
- Point cost to claim: 15 Alpha Points
These “dynamic threshold” designs are now common across Binance Alpha events, creating a timing game: claim early with a higher threshold, or wait for the threshold to drop and risk missing the pool entirely.

How to claim the STABLE airdrop ( practical checklist )
While UI labels can change slightly between app versions, Binance Alpha claims generally follow the same flow:
- Open Binance Wallet and navigate to Binance Alpha / Alpha Events
- Check your Alpha Points ( make sure you still meet the live threshold )
- Tap Claim for the STABLE event
- Confirm the claim within the required window ( some Alpha events require a manual confirmation step; missing it can forfeit rewards )
- A helpful walkthrough of the typical Alpha Events claiming process is outlined here: CoinCodex guide to Binance Alpha airdrops and points
Operational tip: because claiming costs 15 points, don’t cut it too close. If you start with exactly 240 points and something causes a points recalculation or you plan to claim other events, you may lose flexibility.
Why Binance Alpha Points airdrops matter in 2025–2026
Across 2025, crypto airdrops evolved from “free marketing” into structured distribution systems designed to filter for active users, fight sybil behavior, and concentrate early liquidity where it’s most likely to trade.
Binance Alpha’s approach reflects broader trends:
- Points as “proof of participation”: Platforms increasingly reward measurable activity rather than simple wallet snapshots.
- Short windows + first-come mechanics: These systems manufacture urgency and concentrate liquidity/attention at launch.
- Wallet-native distribution: More exchanges are pushing users into Web3 wallet experiences ( onchain swaps, token discovery, and event pages ) rather than keeping everything purely in spot markets.

Risk checklist: avoid common airdrop mistakes
Even when the airdrop itself is legitimate, the surrounding environment often isn’t. Keep these basics in mind:
- Phishing risk spikes during popular claims: Only use in-app event pages and trusted official announcements.
- Token volatility: “Airdrop-to-sell” behavior can create sharp price swings shortly after distribution.
- Gas and network confusion: Ensure you have the correct network assets available for any required onchain action.
- Privacy & wallet hygiene: Consider using a dedicated address for high-frequency event participation, separate from long-term holdings.
Where a hardware wallet fits ( and when OneKey makes sense )
If you plan to hold STABLE ( instead of immediately swapping ) or you’re accumulating multiple Alpha airdrop tokens over time, it’s worth separating:
- a hot wallet for frequent claims and onchain activity, and
- a cold wallet for storage.
A hardware wallet like OneKey can help reduce the risk of approving malicious transactions on a high-value wallet, because signing is isolated on the device. This is especially relevant during airdrop seasons, when attackers often imitate “claim pages” and trick users into granting token approvals.
