$2 million for sports liquidity rewards are live for the next couple of weeks 😛 more rewards coming for the rest of the markets polymarket.com/rewards

@SlackHQ can you please revert your most recent update, it is so bad. This is terrible for anyone who is inbox 0. Please don't make me use Teams

@ikarusz26 @Polymarket @shayne_coplan @devjoshstevens @mustafap0ly US launch coming soon :)

-> @Polymarket is literally unusable and predatory atm (Throwing more LP rewards won't fix this). 1) fix ghost orders asap 2) launch in the US 3) launch L2 4) tge poly and replace uma you're literally trying to fail by succeeding! @shayne_coplan @devjoshstevens @mustafap0ly

@devjoshstevens @Polymarket Huge, let’s get this ship on track, excited to be on this journey with you

This is my 3rd week as VP of Engineering DeFi at @Polymarket , and I'm going to be straight: the traction @Polymarket has seen has massively outpaced our infrastructure, and we haven't done nearly enough to scale to keep up. I hear you, and fixing this is our entire focus. We're a major company now, and we need to engineer like one. Here's exactly what we're doing: - Onchain data latency. We're working on making this near-instant so the experience is incredible. - Chain migration. We need more block space, cheaper gas and much smaller block times so settlement is instant. - Transactions are getting cancelled. We understand this is one of the most frustrating issues right now, and we have a complete fix coming very soon. - Massive focus on the website to make it faster, more responsive, and with better UX. - We added observability everywhere. Proper alerting so we catch issues ourselves, market makers should not be the ones telling us something is down. That's been unacceptable, and we know it. - E2e tests throughout, starting with the CLOB, so issues get caught in CI before anything ships. - CLOBv2 is not a rewrite. It won't improve performance or stability on its own; it's an upgrade that unlocks us to move fast right after. We'll do better with communication next time. - We are rebuilding the CLOB from the ground up. Most important thing we're doing. Without it, we can't be the best DeFi exchange in the world. We know it, we're on it, it's mission critical. - Unified TypeScript SDK for all APIs, which is shipping soon. - Unified API. One WS connection for everything, with a schema that's actually readable. - New Polymarket contract in the works that unlocks things that are simply impossible on the current protocol. - New hires: Head of QA Automation, Head of Dev Tooling, Head of Internal Tooling, Head of Data Engineering. - Smaller, dedicated teams. Fewer focus points per person, clearer ownership. People do what they're good at and are accountable for it. - Working closely with customer support to give them real debugging tools so any user issue gets properly diagnosed, not lost. - Proper communication with marketing and market makers so everyone knows what's coming and when, and MM can submit feature requests with a clear path to get them into engineering and shipped. - Working with 4 security teams daily to ensure we're super secure and that funds are always safe. - Perps incoming. Brand new contracts and a backend built from scratch in Rust. We're proud of this one. - A lot of other fixes are running in parallel right now. Starting next Friday, I will be posting weekly engineering updates. I joined because I genuinely believe in what @Polymarket is trying to do. @shayne_coplan built this so the world has somewhere to go to find out what's actually going to happen, not what the media thinks, not what a pundit says, but what thousands of people are willing to put money on. But right now, our engineering isn't living up to that. We've let people down, and I'm not going to dress that up. I came here to fix it, and that's exactly what we're going to do. The next few months are going to speak for themselves. Stay with us.

Grateful the DOJ officially acknowledged Polymarket's cooperation on this case. Noise aside, the reality is we work proactively with all relevant authorities on any suspicious activity on our marketplace. We flagged this, referred it, and cooperated throughout the process. This happens constantly behind the scenes, despite what many are led to believe. The transparency afforded by onchain markets makes global compliance more effective than ever. Every trade is public, permanent, and auditable. Bad actors leave a trail. As with any fast growing new space, we're adapting and improving as we go. We appreciate the government's willingness to collaborate, learn, and engage with us to bring justice. More to come.

@Scott_eth @Polymarket @BrahmaFi yessir those guys are the best :D

spent the last day reading the new @polymarket contracts the next features they can launch are going to be pretty game changing seems like the @brahmafi acquisition is already paying off

we're hiring cracked engineers at @polymarket one of the best parts of working at polymarket is how much impact a single engineer can have, your work impacts billions if you're excited by hard problems at internet scale, dm me

wow such money

@primo_data you're a legend

It's been a fun technical challenge to scale our data resources to handle 20x YoY increase in transactions. As an example, our Activity API endpoint has ~1b records, thousands of requests/second, and < 50ms latency (p90).

@shayne_coplan is he nice at fifa tho

This man knows ball

@segall_max ur a legend man, lets go split some g's

Can your agent one shot this?!

@ProbablyNoam Openclaw get me a beer

Unemployment has been fun 🙃

@jacobshamberger my guyyyy @jacobshamberger

Welcome to the family. Only up from here!

@primo_data @kurushdubash Super excited to get to work with you @primo_data :)

Glad to have the Dome guys @kurushdubash and @princeofbothell join!

Polymarket has acquired Dome 💜 We’re excited to bring our focus on speed, reliability, and dev experience to the world’s largest prediction market!

We've been a bit more quiet lately working on something big. When we set out to work in prediction markets, we wanted to be at wherever the forefront of the industry was. After pounding the pavement, we realized the place to be was at @Polymarket .

@xan_ps they call them (green) dildos in the degenerate finance world

we need a new term for this growth. hockeystick is old.

@conor_ai lol congrats on the mention bro, I love the title of this article: sfchronicle.com/tech/article/a…

@primo_data @ClickHouseDB @goldskyio @jefftyling yep, click house is the goat

Big fan of @ClickHouseDB because: 1. Focus on real-time 2. Fast 3. Cost-efficient 4. Materialized Views reduce need for dbt 5. Query Endpoints spin up quick APIs 6. ClickPipes = out-of-the-box integrations 7. Ease to scale s/o @goldskyio @jefftyling for the recommendation

😍 fastest insider tracker I've seen powered by Dome!
