Polymarket Perps: How can traders make money consistently via Funding arb & Stat arb? The most consistent money in crypto isn’t made via directional bets. It’s made trading inefficiencies between markets. On mature venues, hundreds of 'big desks' fight over the same scraps. On @Poly_Perps , the field is still wide open. Here are two strategies worth running, & $1–25M capacity is the sweet spot: 1. Funding arb Perps use a funding rate to keep their price anchored to spot. When longs dominate, longs pay shorts. When shorts dominate, shorts pay longs. • The trade: when funding is high on Polymarket Perps, short the perp here and hedge with a long on spot or another venue. You’re delta-neutral, so price moves don’t matter, and you collect the funding payments. • Why here: new venues tend to have more directional flow and far less arb capital competing to close the gap. 2. Stat arb Stat arb trades the relationship between correlated markets rather than the markets themselves. When two assets that normally move together drift apart, you go long the cheap one, short the rich one, and wait for the spread to revert. • Why here: Polymarket Perps sits right next to Polymarket’s prediction markets. That opens up pairs that don’t exist anywhere else, like a BTC perp vs. “BTC above $X by Friday,” or ETH perps vs. event markets that move ETH. Who this is for: • Funds running $1–25M in market-neutral strategies: you’re too small to win the speed war on major CEXs, but big enough to matter here. • Individual traders: you don’t need a fund to run these. If you already trade perps on major CEX/DEX, you have everything you need. A funding arb is two positions and a spreadsheet. Plenty of the best arb traders in crypto started exactly this way, and early participants on a new venue get the widest edges before the crowd shows up.
