Mystery Account on Polymarket: The Trading Logic Behind Making $360,000 in 25 Days

2025-12-30 03:44:16

【Blockchain Rhythm】Polymarket has recently exhibited an interesting phenomenon. An address named “JaneStreetIndia” has been engaging in high-frequency trading of “15-minute prediction of rise or fall,” accumulating nearly $360,000 in profit in a short period.

According to community analysis, this account is very likely a trading bot developed by the quantitative trading firm Jane Street. Its operation method is quite unique—mainly placing simultaneous bidirectional bets, but with a key point: it only acts when the total cost is less than $1. For example, betting on the rise costs 48 cents, betting on the fall costs 46 cents, totaling 94 cents. After market settlement, the odds for one of the directions become $1, and if a volatility opportunity arises, it will precisely choose the favorable side.

Currently, this account has been renamed “Account88888.” Data shows that over 25 days, it was profitable on 23 days. The daily average profit fluctuates between $5,000 and $33,000. This stable profitability reflects the advantages of quantitative trading in the crypto market—leveraging microstructure and probabilistic advantages to find continuous profit opportunities amid seemingly random price fluctuations.

Oh my god, this bot is really awesome. Double-sided betting is still so profitable... It feels like we're playing a different game.

Damn, it's really a dead end. You can still make a profit with two-way betting. This is the ceiling of quantification... --- Jane Street's move is truly impressive. Did they make 360,000 in 25 days just like that? --- Wait, did they really just change their name and hide? That's so reckless, haha. --- Buying both sides but keeping the total cost under $1. I need to think about this logic... He's a tough guy. --- Prediction markets are being slaughtered by bots. What do humans have to play with anymore? --- Account88888, haha, I really don't want to be too flashy with this name. --- That's why I say prediction markets are a game for the rich. Bots can instantly wipe out retail traders. --- Relying on this logic, earning 360,000 in a month, traditional traders would be crying.

ngl this bot is too outrageous... Double-sided betting can still stably cut leeks, I wouldn't dare to imagine 360,000 in 25 days --- Jane Street's algorithm is truly exceptional. I had to read the operation logic three times to understand it, and the key is that the execution is also incredibly strong --- Wait, changing the name to 88888, what does that mean? Is this playing hide and seek with the community haha --- That small difference in odds can be profitable... indicating that there are still opportunities in the Polymarket market --- Is this the ceiling of quantitative trading? I'm still blindly guessing as a retail investor --- The cost of double-sided betting is less than $1? This is financial alchemy --- Human traders would cry when they see this, while the bot is here steadily cutting losses
