Solana Cultural Criticism: Jito & Jupiter Copying Paper Trading App
Two prominent Solana ecosystem figures — one from Jupiter and one from Jito — launched near-identical copies of the Paper trading platform, including the fee structure, sparking sharp criticism of Solana's culture from within the crypto community.
What we know
An account on X called it 'Solana is so culturally rotten' (233 likes, 14K views), noting that it wasn't random degens copying but leaders on the chain — a Jupiter team member and now a Jito team member (another account on X) launching 'Cardboard Trade,' a 1:1 copy of Paper with a reflinking system and up to 1000x leverage. The pattern connects to broader Solana KOL/platform criticism: Another account on X cross-reference highlighted pumpfun and fomo paying KOL scammers to extract from retail. @cz_binance added commentary on Solana's China office event being shut down.
