Slept on this.
So the flow for an AI Agent is:
1. Identify future/long-term resolving bets.
2. Split funds into it; treat this as idle yield
3. Watch for opportunities, when a Polymarket-native opportunity comes: Merge
4. Resolve current opportunity
5. GOTO 1
This gives you a sub-agent operator in Polymarket that constantly farms yield but also can take advantage of its own prediction market strategies when going active.
So as a behavior this becomes a Polymarket-native liquidity provider.
This Polymarket trader holds $86k in both YES and NO shares.
Not because he's hedging.
Not because he's confused.
But because he's farming 4% risk-free with a strategy most people don't know exists:
Polymarket pays 4% annual interest on all open positions in markets that resolve far in the future.
This isn't a bug, it's by design.
If they didn't pay the risk-free rate (US treasury yield), nobody would lock up capital in long-dated markets when they could just hold treasuries instead.
Let's look at @holy_moses7's portfolio as an example (see screenshot):
He's holding 63,000 YES shares AND 63,000 NO shares on the same JD Vance 2028 election market.
- Total position: $86.8k
- Directional risk: Zero
- Annual return: 4%
He's completely delta neutral (market movements don't touch him).
But his idle capital is earning while sitting ready on the platform.
The moment he spots an opportunity, he merges those positions back into USDC and places his bet. (It take like 30 seconds.)
BUT:
Don't buy YES and NO shares on the open market.
You'll get destroyed by the spread between bid and ask prices.
Instead, use two Polymarket features that most people don't know exist:
"Split" and "Merge"
Find them by hovering over "more" in the order interface.
Split: 1 USDC → 1 YES token + 1 NO token
Merge: 1 YES + 1 NO → 1 USDC
Both are free, no fees.
Here's what you do:
1. Choose an eligible market (like the US 2028 presidential election market)
2. Use "Split" to convert your USDC into equal YES/NO positions
3. Your capital earns 4% APY while staying 100% liquid
4. When you want to trade, use "Merge" to convert back to USDC
5. Place your bet
Nobody talks about this because it's not sexy.
But it's super low risk and profitable.
The Polymarket chads understand that 4% risk-free beats 0% on idle capital every time.
Every dollar in your account should be earning.
This is one trick that separates casual users from people actually making money on the platform.
