I stress tested Polymarket's freshly upgraded** order system with a 400k market trade on No for a US invasion of Iran.
Order went through quicker than before, and no part of it failed^^. We're officially BACK, I think.
And good luck to me on that position lol. I think this should be 15%, not 33%.
**Polymarket migrated all of the USDC to their own stablecoin pUSD a few days ago, and upgraded their matching engine/order books at the same time (and added fees). The cool part is you can see exactly the tokenholder metrics at any given time -- -- currently 330 million minted tokens, each worth $1, with nearly 400,000 funded users.
^^Polymarket had been dealing with spoofed orders for a little while now, getting worse in the past few months. If you saw, for instance, a 50k order in some random market, and you tired to match it, often the villain races you to cancel that order on-chain before the tx fully completes. As you can imagine, this was a pernicious exploit that drove people insane. But it's now fixed!
