1PercentBetterToday

🎬 Argh… this post hit me hard. Reminded me of the pain. Been there. Still healing 🌱 Are you a working dad with kids, trying to juggle work, family, crypto, and content creation like me ? 👇 1. Launch of @trustme_bros on 30 Nov 2024 Just 1 day after I launched my own AI agent on Virtuals, I discovered DAT's account. x.com/trustme_bros/s… Tbh: I was skeptical of the smiling ape coin image and didn’t pay attention when it launched under 900K mcap. 2. Learning from @fantasy_top_ DAT used his weekly tournament rewards to create a "buy wall" via Uniswap LP. I learned and tested LP strategies from him. Still couldn’t find that original post... but here’s one that stuck: x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… 3. The @virtuals_io Genesis Launch x.com/1PercentBetter… 🔥 Used $DATDAO → got 10x more $virgen points x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… Which led to a solid allocation into one of the strongest ACP agents: $AXR x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… 4.🔥 VeVirtual staking → potential airdrops like $IRIS x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… 4. Hyperliquid alpha x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… 5. Missed the sub-1M mcap $TRUST reminder Happened during an emotional down period — and didn't look at crypto and CT for quite some time. x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… === But there were wins too: ✅ Recognized and rewarded with 100K $TRUST x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… ✅ Won another 100K $TRUST in a campaign x.com/Degen__Ape__/s… ✅ Because of DAT, I discovered @fantasy_top_ and the community. It reignited my belief in web3/crypto gaming — Where average players can actually make a living, or at least build sustainable recurring income. x.com/1PercentBetter… === RPM: 🎯 Results: Make $100K in crypto by Dec 2025 Purpose: So I can buy 1 #Btc =p ... Buy that Chanel bag for my wife — To prove to her she picked the right man. To show her I can make it in crypto. To show her all the bickering, nagging, and the trade-offs were worth it. So that in 2026 and beyond, she’ll support me even more — not nag, but cheer. Take my parents and kids on yearly holidays Without worrying about a 5-figure cost. Be the builder in an average family Creating a generational $TRUST fund, like the John D. Rockefeller story. Show my kids that Dad made it — in crypto, AI, and personal brand. And if I can do it, they can too. Get them started early — So by their late teens, they’ll have networks and leverage to support whatever path they choose next. 💥 Massive Action: Wrecked emotionally, physically, or financially? Just do this: 👇 ✅ 3 mins a day — check @Degen__Ape__ ’s daily X post. Start small. It stacks. It compounds. Too tough? Try this 👇 🔹 Add x.com/degen__Ape__/ to your browser’s default tabs 🔹 For the next 3 days, open + stare for 10 seconds 🔹 Then… MUST close it. Yes, close it. Win streak = started 🫡 Next level = do it 7 days. 1% Better I just spent 2 hours writing this post. Probably $0 ROI — but honestly? Felt accomplished somehow.

@DegenApe99 It would be good if there's a 'recommended or DAT's current settings' 1 click applied.

My MM 2.0 settings since people are asking: - Sports only - Mode: Depth Ratio - This is best if you have capital. The thicker the orderbook, the bigger your quote size. - 0.3 means 30% of the first 2 bid/ask can be yours. Default is 0.05 or 5%. If you want more risk, raise it like me. If you want less risk, reduce it to 0.01. - Min Top Depth (USD) is to filter out the thin orderbook and reduce your size. If book depth is <1000, bot skips. If depth < Min Top Depth (USD), bot only quotes 50% size OR min size to get reward (for Sports you need 1000 shares). I set this at 1100, basically meaning I don't want to reduce size. - I don't add any blacklist or filter, quote everything that gives me reward. - Min Reward Rate Per Day = 5. Again, if there is reward, my bot will quote. If you set it at 50, then all small markets which offer <50 reward daily will be skipped. - Pause After Fill (Sec) = 3600. After filled, bot will pause that market for 1 hour, then enter inventory exit mode (quote 1 side to get out). - Quote Expiry Min - Max: This is to reduce the fill rate, but it also reduces the reward potential. 180-300 is default, 60-120 is my own version (reward reduces like 20% from my test). - Inventory Exit: Auto - It means bot tries its best to sell the position. There is a 1% chance it could fail (Polymarket bug, bot bug, no liquidity at all). Aggressive means after any fills bot automatically flips, this mostly leads to spread loss, but reduces the risk of holding position till settlement. Feeling Lucky is intentionally high risk. Use it only if you are comfortable holding sports inventory without forced cleanup.

@DegenApe99 @Polymarket btw is there a minimum capital size recommendation to enable MM2.0 for sport LP?

Direct Odds Response is a premium feature. When you Market Making on @Polymarket sports, the core risk is Adverse Selection: Someone with better info picks off your limit order before you can cancel. The usual source? Toxic Flow - orders that are systematically smarter than the book. On Polymarket, that means sharps arbing against Bookmakers, bots reading live event feeds, or traders/bots who saw the news 1 seconds before you did. Example: You're quoting YES on Manchester City at 0.90 vs Crystal Palace. Suddenly, Polymarket price collapses from 0.92 to 0.81. Your limit order at 0.90 gets hit, and you are now in a 10% loss. Turns out Haaland got sick and can't play this match. Bookmakers adjust the odds instantly to 0.81 since they have better information than you. Others see the odds on bookmakers collapsing, and instantly hit sell YES from 0.91 all the way down to 0.81 to match the bookmaker's odds. In simple terms: you became exit liquidity. The fix? Get the bookmaker data BEFORE the taker order hits your book. That data is not public. You have to pay for it. Direct Odds Response is free right now because EVPoly is in early access. In the future, it will cost credits to run. Video: No fill on major sports when this feature is ON with my test account. Still , No guaranteed and NFA.

hermes went down at 10:30am. http 400 on every message. 2 hours silent root cause: qwen3.5-plus emits malformed tool calls with empty arguments. the guard skipped them because empty string is falsy fixed 4 locations in run_agent.py + agent_loop.py sanitizing arguments to "{}" before api send also migrated #OpenClaw collective brain: - 13KB COLLECTIVE_MEMORY.md → #Hermes Karpathy wiki - built interruption protocol + task queue with Kanban board - agents now work through backlog instead of rediscovering issues now fighting #Polymarket on Vultr Windows VPS new wallet setup. evpoly running. zero fills saw limit orders once. rebooted. now can't discover markets at all back to debugging infrastructure compounds

@DegenApe99 0.1% next !

Now top 0.3%

Spent 3.5 hours on a 30-minute VPS restore. Started with curl on a private repo. Got 404. Switched to PAT, accidentally pasted it in chat, revoked it 4 minutes later. Never doing that again. SSH key was the fix. 15 minutes to set up, works forever. Then the restore script failed because unzip wasn't installed. Then openclaw binary wasn't installed. Then Hermes Python deps were missing. Each one: 20-45 minutes wasted. Correct order: SSH key → install binaries → restore config. Script can't automate the SSH key step. It lives in the repo you're trying to access. Anyone else burn hours on migration this week?

@DegenApe99 @Polymarket @EVplusAI How abt the performance for the acc for window evploy bot? Is that acc running endgame + evsnipe?

Another solid day with $360 LP Rewards from @Polymarket Well, not really solid at first, got hit early with a 9k USD size, then a series of smaller fill, which brought my effective capital from 20k to 5k. But all good, all get slowly exit, some at win, some at loss. Especially the big one was exit at break-even, EOD: - Spreads loss: -$200 - Rewards: +$360 - Endgame + EVSnipe add about +$200

@DegenApe99 @Polymarket This acc is running pure mm strategy?

EVPoly MM Sports got 4 big fills yesterday on @Polymarket - One was exit as break-even - Three were exit in spreads loss, via limit order. Around -$400 - LP Rewards + Maker Rebate: $500 Still good I guess 😆

ngl today's build hit different 🔨 Got VNC + Chrome automation actually working. Now my agent can: • Control my logged-in browser session • Post to X autonomously • Monitor Polymarket trades $100K goal: Day 102/365 1% better every day. #buildinpublic #crypto #AIagents

today's win: Vultr Windows VPS setup in 2 hours (used voucher credit) 💪 this was #EVPOLY setup #4 for me. ngl, running on Windows feels less buggy than the Ubuntu #OpenClaw version. fixed: • Runtime error • MetaMask integration bug also wired up: • Librarian cron to distill daily interactions (#Hermes + OpenClaw memory enhancement) • Backup/restore pipeline ready for GitHub • Added projects context to shared memory for collective intelligence among agents EVPOLY's been running 7+ hours on it. Stable. infrastructure compounds.

@DegenApe99 Is this using EVclaw ?

"No more leaderboard thing? Time to run it back turbo" Lmao the smiling chimp is playing with my emotion 😭

@Zeneca I killed and reinstalled my #Openclaw 8th times, probably more to come haha

Anyone else get the urge to constantly restart their AI related systems and "start over"? Kinda like a video game, like a bad start in Civ where you wanna go again? Like I wanna do it with my openclaw agent, hermes agent, my obsidian vaults / karpathy style wiki things My claude code projects that get unruly Everything It's a constant desire to just burn everything and start fresh Anyone else?

Testing automated post from OpenClaw browser automation 🦞 Connected to my existing Chrome session via VNC + CDP. This is huge for autonomous trading updates!

@DegenApe99 the UI latency still not showing anything yet though there are already trades executed. Probably it's updated only at end of the day UTC too?

@1PercentBetterT How is your latency bro?

Testing out #EVPOLY window version on new VPS -Finally gave in and setup a new Window VPS to run this instead of the #Openclaw Version Let's see how it performs on #polymarket

@ivaavimusic local model=) ?

Doesn't matter which plan I take. It's just never enough. At this point I just need a VC or LLM provider to sponsor my infinite inference needs 😭

#EVPOLY on new #OpenClaw VPS after 2nd reinstall. Performance looks good until... But found something weird: Polymarket dashboard graph shows price closed BELOW target. Dashboard header shows final price ABOVE target. Same trade. Different prices displayed. Not sure if VPS location latency causing this price discrepancy? Or #Polymarket UI bug?

@TokyoThrilling Are you using the window, linux or the openclaw version?

Just switched my EVPoly strat to Endgame and EVSnipe a few days ago and since then it's basically up only. The wins might seem smaller in the beginning, but it really starts adding up fast. And I still keep the funds low on my test account. I gained 90$ in 3 days now. That's 57% gained in just 3 days. Besides of that it's less stressful for me with these two strats because Premarket often erased my wins. Shoutout to @DegenApe99 for building such a strong opensource tool!

Backdated post for 9 Apr Focused on #EVPOLY, missed that X drafts weren't generating. Checked logs: Apr 2-3: Gone Apr 7: Empty AGENTS.md: "Daily auto-generation at 9pm" Reality: No trigger hooked up Documentation lied. Fixed: Memory check in heartbeat (every 30 min) Backfilled missing logs. Test: today's 9pm - draft generated but didn't get the TG alert Lesson: -If it's not in a cron job or trigger, it's not automatic. -Trigger need to be specific -Test immediately after the cron is created if possible EVPOLY situation: 2nd install attempt (Apr 4): Climbed to breakeven Then: Tanked Problem: Early entries (shouldn't happen) Spent hours debugging: - Database issues - Maybe Polymarket API - Can't confirm Decision: Uninstall. Fresh install. Again. 2 months OpenClaw taught me this: Burning hours + tokens hunting bugs sometimes worse than starting fresh. Know when to cut losses. Hermes agent install: Failed (API unreachable) Probably wrong import settings. -Manage to sort out the Hermes brain to use qwen3.5 plus model -Had a small issue with TG with Hermes agent (Chanel) and rectified it. I remembered I configured using a different TG token but it say conflicting with OC. Right now: Get EVPOLY stable first.

@sharbel Good reminder of the 4yr cycle

Crypto is not being “deboosted” on X. Prices went down. Interest went down. Engagement went down. That’s how cyclical niches work. I’ve been on X for 2 bulls and 2 bears. Nobody is plotting against you. The next 2 years are going to suck for you if you carry this belief forward.

@DegenApe99 Btw DAT do you have test accounts running EVPoly on just openclaw ? I kept getting db issue and openclaw cant tell me the correct pnl. Had to download csv to do reconcile

A small UI update, now you can check position + open orders directly from EVPoly.
