Legacy market maker: historical classification
A retained label from the previous classifier. It stays visible until the wallet's next normal classification replaces it with an observed trading style.
What the label means
Legacy market maker is a historical classification. The previous rules used whole-cent fill prices, market breadth, activity spans, and sometimes both-outcome positions. They did not observe whether the wallet posted orders or provided liquidity. The current classifier no longer assigns this label.
- Historical model
- The previous rules used whole-cent fill prices, market breadth, activity spans, and sometimes both-outcome positions. They did not observe whether the wallet posted orders or provided liquidity.
- Awaiting reclassification
- Normal processing replaces the stored label; reading a profile does not force a new assignment.
- Retained key
- The historical market_maker key stays available for existing links and API filters.
Why this label can still appear
This label is retained from the previous model. It is not a new assignment under the current rules.
The basis
An existing stored label remains available until normal processing classifies the wallet again. Its name does not imply that it passed the current rules.
The current model describes both-outcome activity, category concentration, recorded trades per stored market, and category breadth. It keeps performance separate and preserves an ambiguous or limited result when the evidence calls for it.
What the label looks like on a profile
Profiles mark this label as Legacy and Awaiting reclassification. The historical key and URL remain available for compatibility.
Use the current trading-style pages to interpret a new assignment. Do not treat the historical label as current evidence of automation, liquidity provision, a quick exit, or an edge.
What the label reads, and what it leaves out
- Historical model
- The previous rules used whole-cent fill prices, market breadth, activity spans, and sometimes both-outcome positions. They did not observe whether the wallet posted orders or provided liquidity.
- Awaiting reclassification
- Normal processing replaces the stored label; reading a profile does not force a new assignment.
- Retained key
- The historical market_maker key stays available for existing links and API filters.
What the label does not prove
- 01
A trading style describes the recorded sample. It does not establish intent, software use, order role, holding duration, or future behavior.
- 02
Profit, grades, and risk metrics are separate. A winning or losing record does not change the trading style.

Both outcomes appear in at least 60% of the wallet's stored markets, and that pattern clearly leads the other qualifying patterns.
- Category focused activity on Polymarket
One known category accounts for at least 70% of recorded positive USD cost basis, and concentration clearly leads the other qualifying patterns.
- High trade density in stored markets
At least 8 recorded trades per stored market on average, with trade density clearly leading the other qualifying patterns.
- Diversified activity across market categories
At least 3 known categories with positive cost basis, no category above 50% of recorded positive USD cost basis, and known categories covering at least 80% of that basis.
