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 PolyScope does
Free “Smart Money Dossier” on a Polymarket news and research site. It picks 78 wallets for steady rather than large profit — a smooth equity curve, low concentration in a few markets, profit across many months — and shows each as a card with its niche (sports, geopolitics, politics, crypto or other), a stability score, its P&L, median position size, win rate, median return and share of profitable months, with a link to the full address. Cards flag wallets whose usual position is too big to copy on a normal account. Profiles are rebuilt overnight from Polymarket's data. There is no account, payment or alert; the site earns from referral links to the Overdog trading bot.
Features- 78 wallet profiles with combined P&L and a “data as of” date for the last rebuild
- Stability score and sorting by stability or P&L
- Filters by niche: sports, geopolitics, politics, crypto and other
- Per wallet: P&L, median position size, win rate, median ROI, concentration and share of profitable months
- “Accessible” or “High-capital” tag by median position size
- The selection idea is the right one for anyone thinking of copying: rank wallets by how evenly they made money, not by how much, and say outright which ones are too big to follow. The research page behind it describes cutting 512 profitable wallets to 314 and testing rules out of sample, and the about page promises limitations next to every result. Those are better habits than most wallet leaderboards show.
- The P&L figures are close to Polymarket's but not the same. On Nov 13, 2026 the top three cards showed $31,930, $30,537 and $332,175 of “true P&L”; Polymarket's all-time profit for the same addresses was $30,720, $30,056 and $279,484. The site does not define “true P&L”, so we cannot say which way the third, 19% apart, is right. Every card we saw showed a 100% win rate, and the “earns from” and “current conviction” fields were empty or “no open positions” on the cards we looked at, so for now the dossier tells you who did well, not what they hold.
- It is a free page on a content site, not a product with alerts or an API, and the commercial side is Overdog: a banner on the dossier and a review on the blog. The about page says referral links are marked rel="sponsored", and the disclaimer says the site is not affiliated with any platform it covers. Its editorial standards say it does not publish exact profit figures for traders it did not interview; the dossier, which publishes full addresses with exact P&L, does not follow that rule. A Polymarket builder named PolyScope with $548K of volume and 49 users appears in Polymarket's leaderboard; nothing on the site links to it.
