What insider-style trading looks like on Polymarket

Four real bets that sat on a public blockchain before they paid off. For each one: what the wallets did, how much they made and which signals gave them away. PolyScope watches for the same signals.

Five new wallets, one strike date

Between 13 and 16 February, five freshly created wallets each put $48-63k on YES in "US strikes Iran by February 28, 2026?" at 10-20¢. Their first trades came within about a day of each other, and the strikes happened before the deadline.

Six rate decisions in a row, all won

Almost every trade this wallet made was on the Bank of Russia key rate, and it came out ahead at all six meetings from February to September. The two biggest bets went in during the final 24 hours, and the last buys came minutes before the official release. The money arrived through a bridge from Ethereum.

A 4-for-4 wallet funds a new one

A new wallet took a large NO position on "DeepSeek V4 released by February 28?". PolyScope traced its deposit back through a bridge and a transit address to an older wallet that had gone 4 for 4 on DeepSeek release dates. A $1.5k withdrawal linked the two, and the new wallet won too.

The signals behind these cases

Each case above shows several of these at once. One signal alone proves nothing, which is why PolyScope looks for combinations.

Fresh wallet
Created days before the bet, often trading a single market and nothing else.
Long odds
Entering at 5-20¢, where being right pays five to twenty times the stake.
Size
A position far larger than anything in the wallet's history.
Timing
Buys landing in the last hours or minutes before the news.
Cluster
Several new wallets entering the same outcome within about a day.
Topic specialist
Nearly all of a wallet's trades on one kind of event.
Repeat winner
Right again and again on the same kind of event.
Money trail
A deposit that traces back to a wallet with a record on the same topic.
