What OrcaLayer does
Polymarket analytics site and data API built on its own index of trades read from the Polygon chain. It ranks wallets by profit with reward farmers, high-frequency bots and Polymarket's router contracts filtered out, marks a wallet “Smart Money” when it has a 55%+ win rate over 10+ resolved markets and positive P&L, and shows each market's smart-money split, wallet track records and a live feed of large trades. Wallet pages, the leaderboard and market pages are free to browse without an account. Pro at $9.99 a month adds Telegram and Discord whale alerts and a watchlist; Premium at $19.99 adds the API, and Business at $99 adds webhooks and a commercial licence. You trade on Polymarket yourself.
Features- Own index of Polymarket fills from Polygon, with splits, merges and redemptions tracked and NegRisk markets corrected
- Leaderboard by profit, win rate or profit factor for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or all time, by category
- Filters that drop farmers (average buy above 95¢), bots (500,000+ trades under $20 on average) and Polymarket's router contracts
- “Smart Money” and stricter “Proven” marks, with the rules published on a methodology page
- Market pages showing which side the tracked wallets hold
- The base numbers hold up. On Nov 11, 2026 the top three of OrcaLayer's all-time leaderboard, Theo4 at +$22.05 million, swisstony at +$18.48 million and Fredi9999 at +$16.62 million, matched Polymarket's own all-time profit leaderboard to the ten thousand dollars. Below that the two lists part: Polymarket's fourth-placed account, at +$13.3 million, is not in OrcaLayer's default view, which hides farmers and bots, and OrcaLayer's fourth, DEEDDIT, shows +$7.47 million. That is the point of the product, but the filters are switched on by default, so the board is a selection and not the whole field.
- The filters themselves are simple and published, which makes them easy to judge. A farmer is any wallet whose average buy price is above 95¢; a bot is a wallet with more than 500,000 trades averaging under $20; “Smart Money” is a 55% market win rate over ten resolved markets with positive lifetime P&L. “Proven” is stricter, comparing each entry price with how the market resolved, with a significance threshold and at least 20 events. The methodology page has a section on what the site does not claim, and the footer says past results do not predict future ones.
- The marketing around the data is looser than the data. The home page greets visitors with “Your win rate is just 7.9%” against whales, without saying what the figure measures. Counts drift from page to page: 203K smart whales on the home page against 180K+ on the pricing page, and 5.1M+ markets on the home page against 2M+ on pricing and 1.4M+ in the FAQ. The domain was registered on Mar 23, 2026.
What PMWallets does
Polymarket wallet leaderboard computed from the Polygon chain rather than Polymarket's API. It groups each trader's addresses into one entity, ranks them over 7 or 30 days by realized profit, and shows win rates with a 95% confidence interval and profit with the single best market removed. Addresses are masked until unlocked for $0.50 to $2 each, and you can follow an entity to get its fills over WebSocket or webhook within about a second of the block. A free account gives the whole board; plans cost $4.99 to $39.99 a month, and the feed can also be paid by the hour. The SDKs and a copy-trading bot are open source and run on your own machine.
Features- Leaderboard of 577,719 entities over 7 or 30 days, rebuilt from Polygon fills, splits, merges, redemptions and resolutions
- Signer and proxy addresses, and wallets shown to trade as one, merged into a single entity
- Win rate with its 95% confidence interval, and a filter on the interval's lower bound
- Profit without the single best market, and unrealized value kept apart from realized
- Filters by category, maker or taker style, fills, volume and activity
- The method is more careful than most leaderboards in this catalog. Win rates come with a confidence interval, so three wins out of three is not shown as a 100% trader; profit is also shown without the best single market, which separates one lucky call from a pattern; and each run scores a fixed block window and is never rewritten. The about page says plainly that a profitable wallet may have been lucky or may have had information you do not.
- The record behind it is short. The board says its data begins on Aug 14, 2026, and positions opened earlier have no cost basis and are left out, so its figures can differ from Polymarket's. Its 30-day leader showed +$6.3 million, where Polymarket's own monthly profit leaderboard was led by +$4.7 million on Nov 9, 2026; the difference may come from grouping addresses or from the window, and we could not compare the two directly because the addresses are masked until paid for. The domain was registered on Sep 17, 2026.
- The speed claim is real but narrower than it looks. The latency page reported 414,928 fills pushed in 30 days at a median of 0.35 s and a p95 of 0.83 s, measured from receiving the block to sending the fill. That clock starts after the trade is already on-chain, so a follower acting on the feed is still at least a block behind the trader and pays whatever the price has become. The SDKs, copy-trading bots and extension were published on GitHub under the MIT licence on Sep 24, 2026, and had no stars when we looked.
