POLYGAINS / CASE STUDY

Making prediction market activity easier to inspect.

PolyGains brings market trades, wallet activity, unusual flow alerts, and trader analytics into a working public terminal. As a co-developer, I work on its backend data streaming and quantitative analysis.

THE PROBLEM

Raw activity is hard to follow.

Prediction market activity spans markets, matched orders, and wallet addresses. Looking at one trade in isolation gives little context about the market or the trader behind it. The product helps visitors move from an unusual event to the related market and wallet activity.

MY CONTRIBUTION

From data to inspection.

I built data streaming pipelines for transaction ingestion, order flow, and wallet clustering, then helped surface that information in interfaces people can explore. PolyGains brings those strands together as alerts, market summaries, and trader views.

PRODUCT FLOW

What the public product shows

Market activity moves through indexing and analysis before it reaches the terminal.

  1. 01Market activity

    Matched orders and wallet transactions on Polymarket.

  2. 02Index and organize

    Bring activity into market, trade, and wallet views.

  3. 03Flag patterns

    Surface unusual trades and related signals for review.

  4. 04Explore

    Inspect alerts, analytics, and trader context in the terminal.

DESIGN DECISIONS

Keep the trail visible.

The terminal presents a scan, discover, and follow path. Filters narrow the alert table by market category, while lookup links make individual activity inspectable. The analytics dashboard separates market overview, detailed charts, and advanced views.

WORKING TODAY

A public, usable product.

Visitors can browse the live alerts table, inspect market analytics, and open trader views. The dashboard also links to a Metabase workspace.
