Traders who earned PAPER by losing money can stake it for USDC payouts, but there is still no date for when they can sell or move it Papertrade has a token you can only earn by losing money. Now it has decided you can’t sell it, either. The HyperEVM-based perpetual futures protocol announced on October 19, 2026 that PAPER will not support off-contract transfers. The team says opening transfers could enable manipulated trading that threatens the protocol’s solvency. No timeline exists for when that might change. Holders aren’t left with nothing.
