Prediction market arbitrage bot finds no sizable gaps

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A developer built a matcher to find arbitrage between Kalshi and Polymarket sports markets, but found gaps close in under 10 seconds. Over 24 hours, 96% of 870 price gaps closed within 30 seconds. The matcher is now offered as a free API instead of a trading bot.

Meridian48 take
The project confirms prediction markets are efficient, not ripe for easy arbitrage—the real value was the tooling, not the trade.
