After research showed a small minority moves prices, new data suggests an even smaller group captures roughly half of all gains What to know : A new Solidus Labs analysis finds that fewer than 1 percent of Polymarket wallets captured about half of all profits in key political prediction markets between December 2025 and February 2026. The report suggests a structural divide in prediction markets, with a tiny cohort of well-capitalized, technologically advanced traders consistently out-earning the broader user base. Solidus also flags signs of wash trading and possible $POLY airdrop farming on Polymarket, even as it uses the on-chain data to promote its own market-surveillance platform.(Coindesk)
