Brief

@xmayeth (2026-06-16) describes a high-frequency Polymarket tactic: repeatedly buy and sell the same 1¢ World Cup outcome (~2,000 times/day, example: "Mexico to win") to capture value from trading flow. He argues visible red positions (Iran, Bosnia down ~50%) are inventory sold later at a markup and invites others to clone the bot.

Why it matters

On 2026-06-16 @xmayeth says he runs ~2,000 buy-sell cycles per day on Polymarket, e.g., buying "Mexico to win the 2026 World Cup" at $0.01 and immediately selling it back at $0.01.

Key details

  • He claims profits come from trading flow and microprice moves rather than picking winners: "each trade drops a penny" and thousands of trades add up; his visible Polymarket profile is asjabaasj.
  • Positions that show large paper losses (Iran, Bosnia down ~50%) are described as unsold inventory he liquidates bit by bit at a markup; he urges others to reverse-engineer the bot (mentions using Claude) before the World Cup ends.
Source evidence

How do you make $100k on the 2026 World Cup without picking a winner?

Buy and sell the same contract at the same price.

2000 times a day.

Bought "Mexico to win the 2026 World Cup" at 1 cent. Sold it right back at 1 cent. Same across different outcomes on one market.

On the trade itself he barely makes a thing.

Picking the winner isn't the point - the money comes from everyone buying and selling these contracts.

Anyone who wants Iran, Bosnia, Ghana, Sweden or a bunch of other countries to win often buys the position from him.

Each trade drops a penny. Thousands of trades, so it adds up to real money.

Now you'll say - half his profile is in the red. Iran down 50%, Bosnia down 50%. Where's the profit?
That red isn't a loss. It's stock on the shelf he hasn't sold yet.

He sells it off bit by bit at his own markup. Positions stay red, the balance goes green.
Profile's open: asjabaasj on Polymarket.

Every trade is visible.

Pull it apart with Claude and build the same bot before the World Cup's over
