Trader loses $637K on PaperTrade, recoups part of losses via staking rewards

  • —Trading losses on PaperTrade totaled about $1.71 million
  • —The trader received 136 million PAPER tokens as rewards
  • —Staking generated about $1.07 million in USDC, with $943K already claimed
  • —Net loss after all rewards was roughly $637,000
Why it matters: The case shows PaperTrade's rewards and staking yield can offset trading losses but do not guarantee profitability.
