What We Searched For

Ten-Phase Reverse-Engineering Protocol

Every phase was executed programmatically over both CSVs in DATA_DROP/ — 1.34M trades after deduping 3 duplicate transaction hashes across the two exports. Every market in this dataset is fully resolved; no "Open" remnants.

PhaseWhat We Were Looking For
Phase 1Trader profile — scale, trade-size distribution, activity clock, inter-trade gaps, buy vs sell ratio.
Phase 2Core strategy archetype — market-making, directional betting, latency arb, copy trading, DCA.
Phase 3Dominance-ratio analysis — does the larger side of a both-sides market win more often as conviction rises?
Phase 4Entry-price discipline — where does capital cluster, does win rate track implied probability, is paired cost below $1.00?
Phase 5Category / market-type concentration — single vertical or distributed?
Phase 6Timing and execution — burst patterns, second-side hedge lag, first-to-last trade span per market.
Phase 7Filter experiments — which simple rules isolate the highest-edge subset?
Phase 8Rolling-window consistency — is the edge durable across 7-day and 15-day slices?
Phase 9P&L decomposition — where does the money actually come from?
Phase 10Strategy specification — a reconstructable rule set describing what this wallet is doing.

Executive Answer

This wallet is a fair-value-driven, both-sides market-making bot on 5- and 15-minute crypto up-or-down binaries.

It deploys small tickets (median $5.56), pairs both outcomes on 96.7% of markets within a median 10 seconds, almost never sells on the book, and holds every share to resolution. The evidence for a real fair-value signal is unambiguous: as the USDC imbalance between sides grows, the dominant side's resolved win rate climbs smoothly from 59% at 1.0–1.5x to 97.7% at 5x+. Entry-price band win rates also track implied probabilities within ~2 points across the full $0–$1 range — a calibration signature you only get from a working model.

Across the 22-day window: 22 of 23 days profitable, every rolling 7-day and 15-day window green, best day +$39,767, worst −$2,507. The strategy earns ~$20K/day on a $1.3M/day trade flow.

In plain English: the bot decides which outcome is underpriced using an external fair-value reference, buys both sides to lock in spread where possible, and lets the dominant side run when conviction warrants it. The bigger the lean, the stronger the signal — and outcomes validate that lean almost perfectly at the top of the conviction curve.

Phase 1 — Trader Profile

High-Frequency Bot, Tiny Tickets, Crypto-Only

Scale

  • 1,342,304 trades over 21.99 days (~61,000/day, ~42/minute).
  • 14,168 unique markets — ~644/day.
  • $29,091,910 buy notional. $22,783 sell notional (0.08% of gross; 2,866 trades).
  • Per-market density: median 83 fills, P95 209.

Trade-Size Distribution

  • Median ticket: $5.56. Mean: $21.69. P95: $54.78. Max: $15,000.
  • Top 5% of trades carry 57.3% of capital — strongly power-law.
  • Small probes dominate the count; large fills reserved for deeper books.

Timing (UTC)

  • Active all 24 hours — no human gaps.
  • Peak 13:00–17:00 UTC (US morning/midday ET, ~68K trades/hr).
  • Trough 20:00–22:00 UTC (~41K trades/hr).
  • Smooth distribution — automation, not a human operator.

Inter-Trade Speed (same market + outcome)

  • Median gap: 0 seconds. P90: 22s. Mean: 9.0s.
  • 78.9% of consecutive fills under 10s; 97.5% under 60s.
  • Sub-human latency. Combined with small tickets → working liquidity in tight bursts.

Phase 2 & 3 — Strategy Archetype & Dominance Ratio

Hybrid Market-Maker With A Real, Monotonic Signal

Both-Sides Participation

96.74%

13,706 of 14,168 markets had both outcomes bought. Clearly in the market-making archetype (prompt threshold >60%).

Median Dominance Ratio

2.81x

Heavier side typically ~2.8x the lighter side. P90 ratio is 22.7x — heavy tail of high-conviction lopsided positioning.

Second-Side Hedge Lag

10s

93.2% of both-sides markets pair within 60 seconds. Hedge is part of the entry, not an afterthought.

Dominance-Ratio Buckets — The Directional-Edge Test

If the trader has a real signal, the dominant side's win rate should rise with the ratio. Prompt thresholds: ≥70% at 2.0x+ and ≥85% at 3.0x+. This wallet exceeds both decisively.

Ratio bucket Markets Dom-side win rate % markets profitable Avg P&L / mkt Total bucket P&L
1.0–1.5x2,98859.0%40.6%−$5.23−$15,638

5.0x+4,41897.7%76.2%+$65.62+$289,916

This is a textbook fair-value-driven inventory trader. The dominant-side win rate rises smoothly 59% → 72% → 81% → 91% → 97.7% as the ratio climbs — exactly what the prompt predicts for a bot that (a) builds an external probability estimate, (b) sizes the two sides inversely to perceived value, and (c) hedges around a paired-cost ceiling. Per-market P&L scales from −$5.23 to +$65.62 — the ratio is a genuine conviction dial, not a byproduct.

Paired-Cost Discipline

  • Median paired cost: $1.006. Mean: $1.027. 47.3% below $1.00; 35.2% below $0.97.
  • Sub-$1 markets average +$53.72 P&L / market; above-$1 markets still average +$12.58.
  • Both regimes profitable. Below parity, spread capture works on matched shares; above parity, the directional edge carries the P&L.

Win rate hugs the entry-price implied probability within ~2 percentage points at every band — strong evidence of a well-calibrated internal fair-value model. The $0.30–$0.90 range shows the highest proxy ROI per share (1.1–1.8¢). The $0.90+ band captures the most capital (52%) at the thinnest margin (0.7¢/share); volume compensates.

Phase 5 — Category Breakdown

100% Crypto Up-Or-Down. Single-Vertical Focus.

All 14,168 markets are crypto price binaries — BTC (86% of capital), ETH (14%), SOL (trace). No sports, politics, or event-driven markets. 97.6% of markets are either 5-minute or 15-minute windows. This strategy is built for one market family only.

Implication. A category filter cannot rescue this wallet's P&L — the category is the strategy. Anyone replicating this needs to accept the same vertical constraint.

Phase 6 — Timing & Execution

Dense Bursts Per Market, Instant Pairing

Per-Market Accumulation

  • Median span first-to-last fill: 274s (4.6 min).
  • P95 span: 882s (14.7 min).
  • Median fills per market: 83. P95: 209.
  • Matches the 5-min / 15-min market windows — the bot saturates each market during its entire life with small child orders.

Second-Side Hedge Lag

  • Median lag (first-side → first opposite-side fill): 10s.
  • 93.2% of both-sides markets paired within 60s.
  • Hedge is essentially simultaneous; the ratio is chosen at entry, not reactive.
Phase 7 — Filter Experiments

Dominance Ratio Is The Cleanest Edge; 1.0–1.5x Is The Only Losing Bucket

Filter Qualifying markets Total P&L Avg / market % profitable
All resolved markets (baseline)14,168+$443,754+$31.3259.7%
Dominance ratio ≥ 1.5x (skip near-balanced)10,718+$454,995+$42.4563.8%

Sub-$1.00 paired cost only6,488+$348,545+$53.7258.2%

Key takeaways: (1) the 1.0–1.5x bucket is the only bucket that loses money — skipping it adds $11K to baseline P&L while retaining 76% of markets. (2) Higher-conviction buckets have materially better per-market economics but fewer markets — the real-money sweet spot is ratio ≥ 3.0x (avg +$63/mkt, 73% profitable). (3) The sub-$1.00 paired-cost filter is strong but orthogonal to the ratio filter; stacking them should be tested in a follow-up.

Phase 10 — Reconstructed Strategy Specification

What This Bot Is Doing, Stated Precisely

One-sentence summary. A fair-value-driven, both-sides market-making bot on 5- and 15-minute crypto up-or-down binaries that scales directional conviction into an asymmetric USDC allocation across outcomes, holds every share to resolution, and compounds a thin per-market edge across ~644 resolved markets per day.

Market universe: Short-duration crypto up/down binaries. BTC (86%), ETH (14%), trace SOL. 98% of capital in 5-min or 15-min windows. Signal source: External fair-value / implied-probability model. Not visible in CSV; inferred from the near-perfect alignment between entry-price implied probability and resolved win rate across every band, and from the monotonic ratio-vs-win-rate curve. Entry trigger: Market opens for trading AND fair probability diverges enough from the book to clear the paired-cost ceiling at target position size. Sizing model: Power-law probes (median $5.56 ticket). Top 5% of trades carry 57% of capital. Size scales with available book depth and edge. Both-sides logic: 96.7% both-sides rate. Second side enters within median 10s of the first. Ratio is chosen at entry, not reactive. Dominance pattern: Median 2.81x. Ratio IS the conviction dial. Higher ratio -> dominant side wins more: 1.0-1.5x : 59.0% -$5.23 / mkt 1.5-2.0x : 72.2% +$9.04 2.0-3.0x : 81.0% +$10.54 3.0-5.0x : 91.2% +$59.38 5.0x+ : 97.7% +$65.62 Paired-cost target: Median $1.006. 47.3% below $1.00. Both regimes profitable; sub-$1 earns ~4.3x more per market ($53.72 vs $12.58). Exit strategy: None on-book (<0.1% sells). Every position held to resolution. Edge source: (1) Well-calibrated external fair-value model prices both sides across $0-$1 range. (2) Ratio asymmetry lets the bot earn on conviction without forfeiting spread on balanced markets. (3) High velocity (644 markets/day) converts thin per-market edge into durable P&L. Known weakness: 1.0-1.5x ratio bucket (near-balanced) loses money on average (-$5.23/mkt). Skipping it would improve aggregate P&L by ~$11K without dropping more than 24% of market count. Rebuild parameters: - Only crypto up/down 5-min & 15-min binaries. - Target paired cost < $1.00 ideal, < $1.03 max. - Dominance ratio >= 1.5x to avoid loss bucket. - Fill with small probes, ~10s second-side pairing. - Hold to resolution; no book-level exit logic. - Activity clock: 24/7 with soft peak 13-17 UTC.
Conclusion

Most Honest Final Conclusion

This wallet is a well-executed reference for a fair-value inventory bot on crypto-price short-duration binaries. Every phase of the 10-phase protocol produces a consistent picture:

  • Observed 1.34M trades, 99.8% buys, 96.7% both-sides, 10s median hedge lag — confirmed bot behavior.
  • Observed 8,461 of 14,168 markets profitable (59.7%). Median per-market P&L +$15.60, mean +$31.32.
  • Observed Dominant-side win rate climbs 59% → 97.7% as ratio grows — clean directional signal.
  • Observed Win rate tracks entry-price implied probability within ~2 points across every price band.
  • Observed Realized P&L +$443,754 on $29.07M net deployed (+1.527% in 22 days).
  • Observed 22 of 23 days green; 100% of rolling 7-day and 15-day windows profitable.
  • Inferred External fair-value engine (likely a BTC/ETH reference price feed) drives the ratio decision.
  • Inferred Fill-and-burst execution; no resting orders worth exiting before resolution.
  • Live-Data-Required The specific fair-value source and order-book snapshot at entry are not in the CSV. A shadow-trade study against a BTC reference feed would be needed to prove the exact model.

Recommended follow-ups: (a) bankroll playbook shadowing this wallet at 1% scale with ratio ≥ 1.5x filter; (b) replicate the fair-value layer using a BTC reference feed and backtest against this wallet's entry timestamps; (c) stack ratio-and-paired-cost filters to isolate the highest-edge subset; (d) investigate the 2026-03-29 red day to characterize the regime in which this bot bleeds.
