What if you could trade the whole trading account—its balance, its Energy, its history—and own it as a collectible NFT? That’s the experiment we’re building with Manekora. Papertrade’s latest announcement explains why its team currently has no plans to enable off-contract PAPER transfers, including the risks external derivatives could create for its pool. Papertrade inspired us. At Hupzy, we’re exploring a different structure: a Maneki NFT that carries your trading experience and can already change hands. Here’s how it works: - Mint a Maneki. Trade BTC and ETH. Your collectible has its own trading balance. Go long or short with up to 1,000× leverage, no added spread, no funding payments, and no slippage caused by order size. Fees and profit-sharing rules still apply. - Trade the Maneki itself. Its artwork, remaining balance, Energy, and trading history stay attached when ownership changes. Once open positions and pending orders are cleared, you can list it for someone else to buy. Finding a buyer and agreeing on a price are part of the market. - Realized losses create Energy. Energy can receive rewards from later realized losses when the pool has enough surplus. Those rewards add to your Maneki’s trading balance. Energy isn’t cash, and rewards can be zero. - Energy cools by 3% each day by default. Without new Energy, 100 becomes 97, then 94.09. This helps limit Energy buildup and gradually reduces the weight of older Energy relative to newly earned Energy. Everyone cools at the same rate; cooling alone doesn’t change your percentage of the total. Early participants can still have an advantage. - Orders use delayed execution. A short wait before execution helps reduce opportunities to exploit stale prices. The market can still move while you wait. That opens another question: what makes a Maneki valuable to you? The artwork? Its remaining balance? Its Energy? The trading history someone has built? You could start your own story, collect a design you love, or buy an existing Maneki and continue its journey. That’s the additional market we’re curious to explore with you. We’re still early. These mechanisms need real-world testing, and the experiment could fail. Only participate with money you can afford to lose entirely. Want to be among the first Maneki owners? 150 community invites. First come, first served.
