Polyrust is a Bot framework for Polymarket that ships an open-source autonomous trading engine written in Rust, with event-driven architecture, trait-based async-trait strategy plugins, an embedded Turso (SQLite) database for trade and order persistence, and single-binary deployment. The repo lives at github.com/nniel-ape/polyrust under an MIT license and ships two reference strategies: a 15-minute crypto Up/Down arbitrage targeting BTC/ETH/SOL/XRP with Kelly-criterion position sizing and fee-aware margins, and a Dutch Book strategy that buys both YES and NO when combined ask falls below $1.00 (the canonical prediction-market risk-free arb). The framework includes a paper-trading default mode, an Axum + HTMX monitoring dashboard at localhost:3000, Docker/Compose deployment with SOPS-encrypted secrets, deployment recipes for Spot ARM VPS, and a backtesting engine with historical-data caching and parameter grid search. Polymarket builder traction: #79 monthly at $112.7k routed from 59 active users; #156 all-time at $153.1k from 77 cumulative — small but active, consistent with a solo open-source builder.
Polyrust is an open-source autonomous trading bot framework for Polymarket, built in Rust and published by GitHub user nniel-ape under an MIT license. The architecture is explicitly event-driven: an async engine receives market events, dispatches them to trait-based strategy plugins, and persists trades and orders into an embedded Turso (SQLite) database. Each deployment compiles to a single binary, with default operation in paper-trading mode and an opt-in live execution backend that connects to Polymarket's CLOB on Polygon.
Two reference strategies ship in the repo. (1) A 15-minute crypto Up/Down arbitrage strategy exploits high-confidence tail-end mispricing in Polymarket's short-duration BTC/ETH/SOL/XRP markets, with fee-aware profit-margin filters and Kelly-criterion position sizing. (2) A Dutch Book strategy buys both YES and NO tokens whenever the combined ask price falls below $1.00 — the canonical risk-free prediction-market arbitrage signature.
Infrastructure tooling is unusually production-grade for a solo project. Docker and Docker Compose configs ship in-repo, with persistent volume mounts for trade history; the project documents deployment via Spot (ARM VPS) with SOPS-encrypted secrets management. An Axum + HTMX monitoring dashboard runs at http://127.0.0.1:3000 for live bot inspection, and a backtesting engine caches historical data and supports parameter grid search. API connectivity smoke tests and a CI suite are included.
On-chain Polymarket traction is small but active: #79 on the 1-month builder leaderboard with $112.7k routed from 59 monthly active users; #156 all-time at $153.1k cumulative across 77 users. That ratio — most monthly actives are also lifetime actives — is the classic open-source-bot footprint, where the framework is downloaded and run from individual VPSes rather than via a managed product.

How to verify polyrust
- On-chain attribution — every Polymarket Builder routes via an order that includes their
builderCode. The hash above is checkable on Polygon against Polymarket's CTF Exchange. - Polymarket's own verification — $polyrust carries the official ✓ verified flag in the data API.
- Cross-check Polybot Arena — polybot.arena tracks wallet-level P&L for builder-tagged bots. If a builder claims specific performance, their wallet should be findable there.
- Tier-2 patterns to avoid — we flag builders that match the Tier-2 pattern (no public team, no verifiable claims, recurs across affiliate-SEO listicles). See our /methodology page for the full criteria.
