❓ FAQ

Short answers to the most common first-time questions. Each links to the page with the full detail.

Who holds my keys?

You do. Polyfox is non-custodial. Your wallet is a standard on-chain account; operations like copies that fire while you're offline run under signing permissions you grant when you set them up, scoped to exactly what you configured. You can export the private key at any time and import it into any wallet (e.g. MetaMask), so your access never depends on the bot. Key export is gated by your funds password if you set one. Full detail: Security.

What if I forget my funds password?

There is no reset. The password is stored only as an irreversible hash, and every path that changes or removes it requires the current password first. If you forget it, you can still trade and deposit, but withdrawals, key export and wallet deletion stay locked. Store it in a password manager. See Security.

Which network and token do deposits use?

USDC or USDT on Polygon, OP, Base, Ethereum, BSC or Arbitrum — the same deposit address on every supported network. Your deposit is converted automatically to pUSD, the dollar token Polymarket trades settle in; your balance simply shows in dollars, and withdrawing converts it back (e.g. to USDC). Funds sent in an unsupported token or on an unsupported network cannot be recovered — check the token and network selector before confirming. Full detail: Deposits.

What does Polyfox cost?

Browsing is free — markets, Smart Wallets, order books, no deposit needed. Trading costs a flat 1% per trade — buys, sells and copied trades alike. There are no subscriptions, no deposit fees, and no gas costs (a relayer covers them). Polyfox adds no withdrawal fee of its own either; the bridge's conversion fees may reduce the received amount, and the withdrawal preview tells you before you confirm. See Legal notes and Withdrawals.

How much do I need to deposit?

Three numbers, three different things: $10 is the deposit minimum (and don't send less — it is the bridge's checkout minimum, and a smaller transfer may not be credited), $1 is the minimum per trade (including each copied trade), and the bot's $100+ suggestion applies to copy trading only — with a small balance, proportional copies come out tiny and either get skipped or bumped up to the $1 floor, so the copy tracks the trader loosely. Deposit only what you are comfortable risking. See Deposits and Copy trading.

How do I know my deposit arrived?

Deposits are usually credited within a few minutes (cross-chain deposits can take slightly longer), and the bot notifies you when your balance is tradeable. Your deposit address is a normal on-chain address — you can check the transfer on the sending network's block explorer at any moment. See Deposits.

Can I get my money out?

Yes, two ways. The bot's /withdraw flow shows a full preview before you confirm; the bridge converts your pUSD into the asset you picked, settles to your Polygon address (provider fees may reduce the received amount), and sends you a completion notification with the transaction hash. Separately, you can always export your private key — direct on-chain access that does not depend on the bot. See Withdrawals.

What happens right after I set up a copy trade?

Nothing is spent at setup. The bot watches the target wallet and only acts when that wallet trades — placing a mirrored order sized by your settings, from your balance, with a notification for every copy. Pause or delete at any time. See Copy trading.

Will copy trading sell positions I opened myself?

Not if you keep them in separate wallets. Copy-sell mirrors the fraction the target sold, applied to the wallet the copy runs in: a copy running in its own sub-wallet can only ever touch what that copy bought. A copy running in your main wallet pools with any shares of the same outcome you bought manually — so if you trade the same markets you copy, use a sub-wallet. See Copy trading.

What is the Smart Wallet Score?

A 50–100 rating computed from a wallet's historical trades, combining past profitability, win rate, consistency, and how a simulated copier would have done after slippage. Wallets estimated below 50 are not listed at all — so every Score you see is 50+, and a 55 sits near the bottom of the list. It is historical data, not a forecast, and not a recommendation to copy anyone. See Smart Wallets.

Is Polyfox affiliated with Polymarket?

No. Polyfox is an independent terminal built for use with Polymarket — it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by Polymarket. See Legal.

Does Polyfox guarantee any results?

No. Polyfox is a tool. All performance figures anywhere in the product are historical data, not a forecast, and prediction-market positions can lose their entire value. See Legal.
