Binance Bans 600+ Alpha Airdrop Accounts, Adds Clawbacks and 50% Whistleblower Bounty

Binance says the crackdown protects fair token distributions to legitimate users.

Overview

  • The removed accounts were linked to automated bot-farm activity that manipulated Alpha airdrop rewards.
  • Verified offenders face permanent disqualification from all Binance campaigns alongside potential clawbacks of airdropped tokens and related earnings.
  • A new whistleblower program offers the first validated reporter up to 50% of funds recovered from a violating account.
  • Reports must be submitted through Binance’s portal with supporting evidence such as UIDs, IP data, screenshots, and relevant on-chain addresses.
  • Binance has added extra verification and monitoring for future Alpha events and says further updates are coming as it seeks to rebuild trust after earlier communication complaints.
