Polymarket Builder
Built on Polymarket. Owned by No One.

Pots Market operates as a Polymarket Builder — routing every order directly through Polymarket's Central Limit Order Book. Settlement is non-custodial: no separate liquidity pool, no operator standing between you and the chain.

Why Polymarket

Liquidity Should Be Shared, Not Fragmented

Building a separate orderbook means bootstrapping liquidity from zero. Pots Market takes a different path: shared CLOB liquidity gives you the world's deepest prediction market from day one.

Polymarket Alternative

Pots Market vs Polymarket.com

Pots Market is not a Polymarket competitor — it is a Polymarket Builder. Same CLOB, same liquidity, same settlement. Pots Market adds a DeFi layer that Polymarket.com does not offer.

Builder Architecture

Order Flow: User → CLOB → Settlement

Every order follows the same path. Pots Market routes it, and that's all it does — no holding, no modifying, no delay.

Your private key never leaves your device. Pots Market is a routing layer, not a custodian.

Security Guarantees

What the Builder Framework Provides

Each layer of the stack carries an explicit, verifiable guarantee — not a promise from an operator.

Settlement
Onchain via CTF Exchange contract — audited by ChainSecurity
Order signing
EIP-712 signed messages — private keys never leave the user
Authentication
L1 wallet signature + L2 HMAC-SHA256 — two-layer security
Execution
Hybrid-decentralized — offchain matching, onchain settlement
Fees
No hidden charges — transparent structure with maker rebates
Verify On-Chain

Every Order Is Verifiable

Builder attribution is embedded in the signed order struct. Inspect any Pots Market order on Polygon to confirm it carries the correct builderCode.

python Create and verify a builder order 
from py_clob_client_v2 import ClobClient

client = ClobClient(
    "https://clob.polymarket.com",
    key=private_key,
    chain_id=137,
    creds=api_creds,
    signature_type=3,  # POLY_1271 (Deposit Wallet)
    funder=deposit_wallet_address
)

# Every order includes on-chain builder attribution
order = client.create_order(
    token_id=token_id,
    price=0.50,
    size=100,
    side="BUY",
    builder_code="POTS_MARKET"  # verifiable on Polygon
)
The builderCode is serialized into the EIP-712 order struct at signing time. It cannot be added, removed, or modified after the user signs. Every POTS trade carries verifiable proof of attribution.
Honest Assessment

Limitations & Tradeoffs

Pots Market chooses transparency over marketing polish. Here's exactly what the Builder framework does and doesn't provide.

What it provides
  • Non-custodial security — no third party holds user funds
  • No abusive fees — structure is public and auditable
  • Real-time market data via CLOB API
  • Settlement legitimacy — payouts through audited contracts
  • Gasless execution — Builder Relayer covers gas
Constraints to know
  • Polymarket's event policies apply — not all events may be available in all jurisdictions
  • Orderbook depth depends on Polymarket ecosystem health
  • Resolution disputes follow Polymarket's UMA oracle process
  • Long-term: Pots Market intends to expand beyond the Builder framework as the ecosystem matures
FAQ

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is a Polymarket Builder?
An application that routes orders through Polymarket's CLOB. Builders share the same orderbook and settlement contracts — they add functionality without standing between users and settlement.
02 Is Pots Market separate from Polymarket?
No separate orderbook. Pots Market routes to the same CLOB, same CTF Exchange on Polygon, same ERC1155 tokens. POTS adds rewards and UI features on top — not between you and settlement.
03 How can I verify my order was correctly routed?
Every order contains a builderCode in the signed order struct, serialized on Polygon. Check the CTF Exchange contract: your order will show builderCode = "POTS_MARKET". Cannot be added after signing.
04 Does the Builder framework add custody risk?
No. Security inherits from Polymarket: EIP-712 signed orders, CTF Exchange audited by ChainSecurity, non-custodial settlement. Pots Market cannot access user funds regardless of its own status.
