How are whale trades detected?

We use real-time blockchain monitoring to detect whale trades the moment they hit the Polymarket smart contracts on Polygon. Our infrastructure processes every new block and filters for transactions from tracked whale wallets.

Detection typically happens within 1-2 seconds of a whale's trade being confirmed on-chain. The signal is then processed, enriched with market context (current odds, liquidity depth, whale win rate), and pushed to your dashboard and Telegram alerts.

This sub-second detection pipeline is what makes auto-copy trading viable — the faster we detect, the closer your entry price is to the whale's.
