Last month, my automated trading system quietly settled three Polymarket positions while I was asleep — netting just over $340 in combined winnings on political and crypto price markets. That's not life-changing money, but it's real, verifiable, passive income that required zero manual intervention after setup. Here's exactly how I'm doing it in 2026, and how you can start building a similar system.
Polymarket is a decentralized prediction market platform built on Polygon, where users buy and sell shares in the outcomes of real-world events. Think of it like a stock market for questions: "Will Bitcoin hit $150K before July 2026?" or "Will the Fed cut rates in March?"
