Polymarket Profits Concentrated Among Few Traders

[ed]

Despite Polymarket’s popularity, the profits are concentrated:

Only 0.51% of users earn over $1,000, and 1.74% trade over $50,000 in volume.

High-frequency bots and well-funded whales dominate, leaving most retail players behind.

Arbitrage isn’t about predicting outcomes—it’s about exploiting market inefficiencies.

With new markets, yield programs, and speculation of token airdrops, Polymarket’s arbitrage arms race is only heating up. For savvy traders, speed and insight are everything.
