Binance Alpha is set to open trading for Spacecoin (SPACE) on 2026-01-23 10:00 (UTC), based on Binance communications around the Alpha launch and early reporting that references the Alpha event rules. Alongside the trading open, the same reports describe an Alpha Points claim mechanic where users meeting a points threshold can use Alpha Points to claim an airdrop on the Alpha event page.
Multiple reports citing the Alpha announcement describe a starting eligibility threshold of 227 Alpha Points, a claim cost of 15 points, and a dynamic threshold that drops by 5 points every 5 minutes if the allocation is not fully claimed. The same descriptions attach a 6,720 SPACE claim amount to the event’s claim mechanic.
Alpha-point gating tends to create a short, intense participation window. Users who are close to the threshold often rush to earn or acquire points, while higher-point users race to secure allocation before the threshold drops. That combination frequently pushes a burst of activity into the minutes around the trading open, which can translate into sharp early price swings.
The event design is also a coordination catalyst. A clearly defined start time, a publicly visible threshold, and a declining requirement can create a feedback loop where participation increases as soon as users see the threshold moving, amplifying volatility both in the listed token and in behavior around Alpha points.
Binance’s broader Alpha documentation describes Alpha Points as a platform scoring and participation system where points are spent immediately when a user confirms participation in an Alpha event, and points operate on a rolling expiry schedule. In many Alpha airdrop formats described in Binance-hosted posts, claims can also require a confirmation step within a limited window, which can penalize slow follow-through during crowded events.
For this Spacecoin event, the mechanics being reported imply three immediate dynamics: first, users may front-run the event by ensuring points are already available before 10:00 (UTC). Second, the 15-point claim cost can create a decision point for users who are borderline eligible and want to preserve points for later drops. Third, the 5-minute threshold decay can widen eligibility over time, but it can also extend the churn window where users keep checking and reacting to the changing threshold.
The ticker “SPACE” is commonly reused across crypto, and that increases spoof-token risk during high-attention listing windows. Any interaction with contracts or airdrop claim links should be anchored to the official details shown inside the Binance Alpha event flow and to Spacecoin’s official channels, rather than DEX search results or social reposts.
During similar point-gated events, scam links often appear that mimic Alpha pages, wallet connect prompts, or “claim now” buttons. The safer pattern is to navigate only through Binance’s in-app event surfaces and to cross-check that the token identity and contract information match what Binance and Spacecoin publish.
Binance Alpha’s Spacecoin listing combines a fixed trading open time with a point-gated, dynamically lowering claim threshold, a structure that often concentrates demand and accelerates early volatility. The most important operational edge during the window is strict contract and link verification, since ticker collisions and event-driven urgency tend to increase spoof activity precisely when participation is highest.
