Polymarket Top Holders: Compare YES/NO & Analyze Wallets

Compare YES and NO holders side by side

The market tab separates holders by outcome, with the largest share holdings first. Each table includes:

Trader and wallet: identify the holder and connect the position to a public address.
Shares: see how many outcome shares the wallet holds.
% of listed shares: compare the wallet’s holding with the total returned in that outcome’s table.
Value (USDC): see the current value of the holding.
Avg price and Total PnL: inspect the source-reported price and P&L for that holding.
Holds both sides: identify wallets appearing in both outcome lists.
New wallet, Age (days), and Wallet created: spot holders whose Polymarket accounts were set up within the past 30 days, with each wallet’s age and creation date shown for context.

Both holder tables share the same columns. Scroll right for the both-sides and new-wallet flags.

This answers a different question from a platform-wide trader leaderboard. You begin with a particular market and see who holds its outcome shares, then investigate those wallets.

Read the holder treemaps

Each outcome gets its own treemap. Tiles are sized by the number of shares held, making the distribution easy to compare at a glance.

One large tile beside many small ones shows that the listed holdings are concentrated in a large wallet. Several similarly sized tiles show a more evenly distributed group. Hover over a tile to inspect the holder’s details.

Each tile is one wallet sized by shares. A few huge tiles means a handful of wallets control that side.

Read the YES and NO maps together. You might find one side dominated by a few listed wallets while the other is spread across more holders. The table’s percentages describe listed shares, which is the denominator to use when explaining what the visualization shows.

Spot wallets holding both sides

A wallet can appear in both outcome tables. Lychee marks those rows with Holds both sides and outlines the matching holder tiles in amber.

An amber outline marks a wallet that also holds the other outcome.

That gives you a useful next question: how does this market fit into the wallet’s broader positions and activity? Both-side holdings show overlapping exposure; the position history helps you investigate how it developed.

Identify recently created wallets

The New wallet flag highlights holders whose Polymarket accounts were set up within the past 30 days. In the treemaps, their tiles carry a violet dot. The Age (days) and Wallet created columns show every listed holder’s age and creation date, so a value such as 12 tells you how recently that holder arrived before you explore the activity behind its current position.

A violet dot marks a wallet set up in the last 30 days. Hover it for its exact age.

The age comes from the creation date of the holder’s Polymarket account. It describes when the wallet joined Polymarket, rather than the trader’s experience elsewhere. A recently created wallet is a reason to investigate its history, not evidence of inside information.

Explore the wallets behind the positions

The recipe opens trader tabs automatically, so you can move from the holder comparison into wallet analysis without rebuilding the query.

The holders tables rank shares within each outcome. The trader selection combines each wallet’s current position value across both outcomes, helping identify the largest traders in the selected market. Polymarket’s own contracts can hold large balances without trading, so Lychee skips them when choosing traders and labels the ones it skips in the holder tables.

See this market in the trader’s portfolio

Open a trader tab to inspect their positions table and portfolio treemap. The table gives you the individual records; the treemap makes their relative sizes visible.

Each trader's tab starts with every open position. The House market is most of plumbis's book.

Position tiles are sized by current value, and their colors reflect unrealized P&L. Use tile area to compare exposure and color to explore the performance of those open positions.

Find the market you started with, then compare it with the trader’s other holdings. A position that looks enormous in isolation may be a small part of that wallet’s portfolio. Another wallet might have much more of its displayed position value concentrated in the same question.

The Holds both sides flag also appears in the positions data for markets where both outcomes are present. You can investigate overlap across the wallet’s positions as well as in the original market.

Inspect activity beyond buys and sells

The activity view brings the trader’s actions into one place. Alongside trades, it includes actions such as splits, merges, and redemptions when returned by the source.

Use the records to follow the sequence around a position: purchases, sales, and other actions can tell a more complete story than the current share balance alone. Inspect the activity type before treating a row as a new directional purchase.

The daily activity heatmap shows recorded actions per day. It helps you find active periods, quiet stretches, and bursts worth examining in the table. The accompanying activity chart breaks down USDC amounts by action type over time.

Activity covers trades and redemptions, with a calendar of when they trade and a chart of how much.

For example, if you notice a cluster of active days, inspect the records from that period. Were they trading the market you selected, working across several markets, or redeeming positions that had already resolved?

Follow P&L through time

The P&L chart adds history to the wallet’s current positions. Look for whether the displayed profit accumulated gradually, changed sharply around a particular period, or moved alongside changes in open inventory.

PnL through time, with the realized and unrealized split. Switch trader tabs to compare all five.

The underlying P&L table includes realized, unrealized, position, and economic P&L fields. Keep those definitions attached to the figures you use: realized P&L and the changing value of open positions answer different questions.

Read the chart alongside activity and positions. A large move becomes more useful to investigate when you can inspect the actions around it and see what the wallet currently holds.

Questions you can investigate with this dashboard

The connected views let you move beyond a ranked list:

Who holds the largest YES and NO positions in this market?
Are the listed shares concentrated in a few wallets?
Which listed wallets hold both outcomes?
Which large holders set up their Polymarket wallets within the past 30 days?
How large is this position relative to a holder’s other positions?
When was the wallet active, and what actions did it take?
How does its P&L history compare with its current holdings?

These questions reflect the context people ask for when investigating large wallets: transaction history, position sizing, overlapping holdings, and performance through time. A large position is a starting point for that research, rather than a conclusion about the trader’s skill or reasoning.

Frequently asked questions

How do I see top holders on Polymarket?

Open Lychee’s Polymarket Holder Analysis recipe, search for a market, and select the question. Click Save and Go to create the holder tables, distribution treemaps, and trader research tabs.

Can I compare YES and NO holders?

Yes. The recipe creates a separate table and treemap for each outcome, so you can compare the leading holders and distribution of listed shares side by side.

Can I see whether a wallet holds both YES and NO?

Yes. Wallets appearing in both returned outcome lists receive a Holds both sides flag and an amber outline in the holder treemaps. Trader positions also flag markets where both outcomes are present.

What does the New wallet flag mean?

It marks a holder whose Polymarket account was set up within the past 30 days, and adds a violet dot to its treemap tile. The Age (days) and Wallet created columns show when every listed holder joined. Wallets without an available creation date have a blank age and are not classified as new.

What does the activity heatmap show?

It counts recorded actions by day. Use it to find active periods, then inspect the activity table for trades, splits, merges, redemptions, and other returned action types.

Can I analyze a holder’s other positions and P&L?

Yes. Trader tabs bring together positions, a portfolio treemap, activity records and charts, and a P&L history chart. You can see how the original market position fits into the wallet’s broader activity.

Do I need to write code or connect the datasets myself?

No. The recipe packages the holder and trader research into one workflow. Search for a market and click Save and Go; Lychee creates the connected tables, charts, and tabs for you.
