BTC Paper Farm V3

Thesis

Farm PAPER with opposing BTC positions, adapting leverage and exit moves to measured mint rates while keeping claimed rewards out of trading.

Strategy

• Entries: Check each minute for a 15min BTC range ≥0.10%, an empty payout queue and a modeled cost ≤$8; split initial-capital-funded margin equally. • Exits: Start the losing close first and close both at the selected move, 50% margin loss or a 4–24h time limit; retry entry only after filters pass. • Rewards: Check staking every 5min at 1,000 PAPER and claim every 30min without compounding; hourly flat cost checks above $8 pause entries for 2h.

Exposure

• Holds: BTC pair and PAPER — One BTC long and short plus earned and staked PAPER; trading is capped at initial capital and excludes claimed rewards. • Venue: Papertrade — Minimum 43.478260869565217392 USDC funds two $3,500 legs at 161x under the default mint rate; entries also need capacity. • Leverage: 10–175x per leg — Choose leverage and the smallest qualifying move from 0.15% in 0.01% steps, within the 50% margin-loss limit. • Costs: $7.50 target; $8 maximum — Model cost per 1,000 PAPER from a default mint rate of 22; measured checks begin after 3,000 PAPER since baseline. • Data: Circuit — BTC candles, prices, account capacity and settlements supply entry checks, five-second exits and measured mint rates. • On unwind: USDC and PAPER — Closing returns USDC; earned and staked PAPER remain, and claimed USDC is kept outside trading capital.
