On-Chain Perps Exchange Papertrade Draws $85.3M in Deposits Ahead of 1000x Leverage Launch

  • —User deposits on Papertrade reached $85.3 million
  • —Bitcoin-related open interest on the platform is cited at $3 billion
  • —Planned 1000x leverage exceeds the 20x–125x caps at most centralized exchanges
  • —Details on the underlying blockchain and risk parameters remain undisclosed
Why it matters: Extreme leverage can drive volume but raises liquidation risk and sets a benchmark for rival on-chain derivatives venues.
