Polymarket market makers on the leaderboard

A market maker does not bet on outcomes. It rests buy orders on both sides of a market, gets filled by people who want to trade now, and keeps the gap between the two prices — plus the rebates and liquidity rewards Polymarket pays for quoting. Done across hundreds of markets a day it adds up to some of the largest profits on the leaderboard.

None of that survives a copy. You see one fill at a time, not the other half of the position; you take liquidity where the maker provided it, so you pay the spread it earned; and you get no rebate. Copying a market maker is being its customer.

209 wallets, by all-time profit

A wallet is here when 50% or more of its fills rest on the book and it also buys both outcomes in 30% or more of its markets, fills 100+ orders a day, or enters 50+ new markets a day. The first columns are the numbers each wallet fails it on. We check every wallet that has made Polymarket's all-time or 30-day top 100, overall or in Crypto, every day. For 160 of these 209 it is the first check they fail; the last column names the first one for the rest.
