Among over 1.7 million Polymarket trading addresses, the proportion of addresses with realized profits is close to 30%; conversely, approximately 70% of trading addresses have realized losses.

A more sobering reality is that less than 0.04% of addresses have achieved over 70% of the total realized profits, with these top addresses accumulating a total realized profit of up to $3.7 billion.

The majority of profitable trading addresses have a profit range of $0 - $1,000, accounting for 24.56% of all addresses, but only capturing 0.86% of the total realized profits. To earn more than $1,000, one needs to be in the Top 4.9%.

Of course, it is not easy for ordinary users to lose too much. Over 1.1 million addresses (63.5% of all addresses) have realized losses in the range of $0 – $1,000; however, more than 140 addresses have realized losses exceeding $1 million.

Calculation method: Realized PnL = Total sell proceeds + Total redemption remittances – Total purchase costs. It should be noted that this calculation does not consider any floating profit and loss; for trading addresses with large open positions, it may be recorded as a significant negative realized PnL.
