Polymarket just got a radar. 🛰️ Today @mevtools is shipping PolyGains - a real-time Polymarket terminal built on SQD Pipes. It tracks live flow + wallet history and pings when a zero-history wallet moves size. Try it: https://t.co/NsUhtoKeKc

GM!

SQD enters prediction markets. Builder @mevtools is using SQD Pipes SDK to create alerts for Polymarket “zero-history” insider wallets placing big bets. Template + demo dropping soon.

We need more of these kind of challenges! Much better than your regular CTF https://t.co/Eenci9Uk81

8/8 🏁 The conclusion: Arbitrum seems to have the more active numbers, but don't discount Optimism yet. The higher developer loyalty might translate into long-term resilience.
