Have somebody that wants advice to bring a legit large business onchain
Going public will take a year + expenses vs onchain but even with the best partners / launch the result would be shadow realm for the token it seems
There’s this cucked thinking that $PAPER isn’t a scam because Jez is smart, OG, posting long think pieces about the protocol
Reality is they went from supply cap to infinite supply & raped anyone who staked. Just as big of a scam as a basic pumpfun bundler, with extra steps
No strong opinion on $PAPER or @papertrade_xyz, but I think it's very wrong to attack @izebel_eth and team
They made it abundantly clear up front that this was going to be very experimental, and they listed out several possible issues/exploits in the docs.
Constructive criticism is fine, but let's not attack the people trying cool new shit. We want more experimental and ambitious stuff being attempted on chain, not less.
Failure, especially in uncharted territory, doesn't equal scamming. This goes for a lot of other founders who catch shit for having failed in past endeavors too.
What makes this an actual scam / rug is @papertrade_xyz team looks to be keeping the millions they made off this
If they were good actors that would be a non starter and those funds would be used to help bail out the early users you raped
Did not expect to get rugged on $PAPER, had high conviction this would be a $1b + protocol
It’s now infinite supply + cant sell + can’t maintain your current ownership
Aids
owning paper is owning a share in the house
this is only valuable insofar as the house is valuable. owning a lot of a dead house is worthless, and any design that would let the house stay at zero is a failed design.
when we went out, there were certain known problems with known timelines (builder codes) and some unsolved problems with unknown timelines. the perp attack described in the main was an unsolved problem, but we hoped to solve it as we made progress elsewhere. we knew it was impossible to set all the parameters and variables perfectly prelaunch - we are the first through the wall in a very adversarial environment - and i thought we would have more time to find solutions. unfortunately, the way things are advancing, we dont have six months until a large perp listing, its coming already. these were labelled as unsolved “good problems” and here we are. the market forced our hand into making the decision before we found a solution to the problem, and so for the health of the protocol the token is now non-transferrable. i want to thank all of the pre-market perp dexes, especially the hyperliquid ecosystem ones, who were in contact through this process. i am sorry I was not able to find a design for transferability that worked, i tried very hard.
ultimately, the success of papertrade relies on what it always has - whether the end product has user PMF. i have extreme confidence in the product we've built and continue to add to. i have had to personally self-exclude myself from similar products before because i used them too much. the token being transferable or not does not change whether a degen will longterm choose to trade on papertrade or not. the execution, site quality, mechanism, and economics of the trade will. papertrade is the fastest way to go from usdc in your wallet on any chain to a leveraged speculation exposure. providing clean, working, composability derivative liquidity in a permissionless environment is the vision.
thank you for your all your support since launch, and good luck to us
Actually such good tech
There’s zero reason the $TCG chart shouldn’t look just like $CARDS besides execution and BD that can be improved
Offered to help via dm, again 🫡
Update: redeemed it from my @collectdotrip digital binder and it's now in my physical binder next to some friends

Something incredible about ordering doordash while watching the downfall of Europe livestreamed
🇮🇹 NOW MILAN IS ERUPTING TOO
The wave of unrest across Europe is spreading.
More than 5,000 protesters took to the streets of Milan over soaring fuel prices and low wages.
And things turned violent.
Rocks, firecrackers and fireworks were hurled at police. Bus shelters and windows were smashed, with riot officers moving in to break up the clashes.
Different countries. Similar frustrations. Same "solutions."

🚨 OREGON SCHOOL SHOOTER IDENTIFIED
John Griffin has been identified as the shooter responsible for the tragic school shooting in Oregon.
His mother has been identified as Shauntai Nickerson.
I located these photographs on Facebook, including one showing Griffin alongside his mother.
I have personally reached out to Shauntai Nickerson for comment.

Met with an AI / Robotics gigachad founder today who pivoted from crypto
He audibly laughed at the idea of still working or investing in this hellscape
