Papertrade tightens trading limits after alleging price manipulation on Hyperliquid for synthetic BTC and ETH contracts

Papertrade has tightened limits on new trading exposure for its synthetic Bitcoin and Ether contracts after alleging that prices on Hyperliquid, used as a reference, were targeted for manipulation. The platform initially allowed up to $1 billion in open interest per market and side, with individual positions capped at $10 million, but has now reduced these limits to prevent manipulation attempts. Papertrade’s contracts rely on the midpoint of Hyperliquid’s best bid and offer prices, linking contract values to external quotes even without matching positions on Hyperliquid. The new settings aim to make manipulation attempts nearly unprofitable, enhancing the platform's security and stability.

Papertrade's tightened trading limits follow allegations of price manipulation on Hyperliquid. For readers following cryptocurrency markets, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 12, 2026 01:01 WIB: out of 50 major cryptocurrencies, 35 rose and 14 fell today.
