Frequently asked.
Short answers to common questions.
Is GodPoly an exchange? +
No. It is a self-hosted scanning and execution layer on top of Polymarket. All trades route through Polymarket's CLOB; we never custody funds.
Are trading features live? +
Trading is feature-flagged off by default. The first release ships in scan-only mode. Execution will be enabled in a later version.
How are wallet keys stored? +
Locally, AES-256 encrypted with your password. Plaintext keys are never written to disk, logs, or memory longer than required.
What markets does the scanner cover? +
Polymarket crypto up/down markets across 1H, 4H, and daily timeframes. More market families on the roadmap.
How is arbitrage detected? +
A market is flagged when the combined YES + NO best-ask price is less than 1.00. The validator rejects any saved configuration with maxCombinedPrice >= 1.0.
Can I run this on my own machine? +
Yes — it is designed to run on a small VPS. The frontend is a static SPA; the backend is a Python (Flask + SocketIO) service.
