I've been exploring prediction market for a while, and the biggest potential I've seen so far is polymarket. I've seen folks with minimal level skills hitting+50k to $100k in PNL and accomplished In 6 months to 1 year.
Folks with master level skills and trading bots are hitting 200 to 300k in profit. However this isn't the target for me, as I don't intend to be greedy.
It's actually hard
Granted, it's very difficult to excel with prediction market, I've tried trading in the past few months and have failed woefully, but after sitting down to analyse why I've failed I discovered that I went in blind.
I would need at least a month or two of constant research to master the art. I also contacted someone close to me, I wanted him to build a bot that could mirror some of the most successful traders and then we can trade some of the most profitable outcome, entering and exiting the market when the timing is right.
I don't intend to mess this up, but then I'll need a lot of knowledge and skill, and I intend to take time to do this and I don't intend to fail.
I know I'm definitely going to face obstacles, I already encounter a few losses, but I know why I did, however I'm definitely going to incur more losses even when the right knowledge, and when this comes, I'm sure my mental resolve is going to be tested, but I'm willing to do all it takes.
At the moment, I currently don't have anyone to put me through, but that's why we have the right details and information on the Internet and I want to leverage on this.
If I become successful, then perhaps I can hit my target of making 50 to $100k. This is currently a pipe dream, but if I manage to hit even 20 to 30% of my goal by the end of the year, God willing, then I think I'll continue getting more information.
Can't give up now
If I fail? Well I'm trusting on a collaboration to come through, but if this collaboration doesn't work, then I'll have to find a way to make it happen on my end.
I don't like failures, a lot of time I've set my mind to stuffs, I've found ways to make it happen, but I understand that I can fail.
A lot is currently at stake, I'm hoping to truly better my position financially, away from Hive, the last two quarter of 2025 was really great, and I hit a lot of target and outdid myself in do many ways, and this is why I think I have it in me.
Prediction Market, degens and Solana tranches are some of the most difficult money making opportunity across web2 and web3.
They take time and dedication to achieve and honestly this is what I'm willing to sacrifice. I see it as an explorable niche and polymarket looks like that place, and I'm going to take a few weeks to understand what I'm heading into.
Finally
I implore y'all folks to explore other opportunities too, you can get enough liquidity to invest in your favorite crypto projects.
The advantage is that you don't have to mentally dwell on the dilapidated condition of the market, and you open yourself up for opportunities to sit on better liquidity opportunities.
Don't sit and wait for the market to get better, you have to fight, study, explore more opportunities and open up yourself. Life is becoming too expensive
