Original Reddit post

Saw an experiment where two AI agents were given $1,000 each to trade on Polymarket, and the results couldn’t be more opposite: A Claude-powered agent reportedly turned $1,000 → $14,216 in under 48 hours (~1300% return) Another agent built using the OpenClaw framework was completely liquidated to $0 in the same timeframe Some people are calling it fake saying the dashboard and P&L could be scripted with no real trade logs. So I’m trying to understand: Is this kind of performance even possible with current AI trading systems? Or is this just hype / cherry-picked results? Also, would you trust an AI agent to trade your money right now? submitted by /u/PersonalitySea6659
