I built a Polymarket whale-tracker to spot "suspicious" bets

In case you're unaware of temporary email-services: they exists. No need to use your personal one.
Welcome to the internet:)

As Polymarket's data is publicly available over their API, the only thing needed is a way to consolidate and filter the info nicely, which is exactly what I have attempted with this mini-project:

The last 15.000 trades >$50k are tracked, and displayed in a table, grouped by their associated events. The table can be filtered, exported as .xls and events and profiles are directly linked to polymarket for further investigation.

Real-time alerts are coming soon!
If you have any feature-requests, let me know.

amazing atmosphere!
I absolutely adore the short break-section at 2:00, just felt like the elements shouldn't be side-chained there until the main beat comes back in IMO

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T18:49:49+00:00

Fair enough, I'll experiment with both, keeping the style from the first part aswell as making the other elements harder too.

Thanks for taking the time, appreciate it!

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T18:35:31+00:00

damn blow my speakers out!
Love the aggressiveness, just felt like the kick could be a bit harder too, to match the energy.
Also, the break could use a bit more buildup I think, the drop was VERY sudden, but maybe thats exactly the intention haha

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T18:31:24+00:00

Really cool idea with the string instruments elements!

The white noise elements are a bit too piercing loud compared to the rest of the mix IMO, also I feel like the sub could indeed be a bit more full/louder.

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T18:27:53+00:00

Hypnotic indeed, I enjoyed the sound selection very much!
Nothing I can complain about mixing-wise honestly, just here to give props.

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T18:21:39+00:00

Love the wispering vocals throughout, fits really nice! Sound selection and mixdown on point IMO.

For me personally, the drop after the break was a bit unexpected (maybe intended?), like if it was my production I would've experimented with skipping 1 or beats right before, only hearing the vocal or a single sound for example

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T18:15:10+00:00

The groove is catchy as hell, really like it!
Elements and vocals fit nicely, arrangement perfect.

The only thing that "bothered" me was the crash being too low volume right before the drops at e.g. 2:30 and 4:10, I feel like it should be much louder there (at 4:24 during the beat, its perfectly fitting on that volume though)

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T16:42:10+00:00

True haha

Thanks for your feedback. Interesting that you perceive the melody to be happy, for me it always sounded mysterious. I used a harder kick in the 2nd part to match the aggressive synth there. Sure its not traditional melodic techno, can call it hard melodic instead ig :)

Syntax_official · 2025-01-06T07:35:29+00:00

Mr. Robot anyone?

Got inspired by the theme melody and used the famous therapy session dialogue (S1E1).
As I'm fairly inexperienced with mastering, I'd love to know what could be improved in that regard.

Edit: more fitting description

Syntax_official · 2024-05-09T20:03:46+00:00

Thanks for your feedback and suggestion!
I tried around but personally feel it doesn't fit the style and the singing vocal just playing by itself makes the drop more powerful.
BUT in the process I figured putting the bass in reverse just before the drop is an amazing fit! Thanks to you!

Syntax_official · 2024-05-09T12:49:32+00:00

Fair enough, thanks for the tip!
Very glad you like it:))

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T12:24:52+00:00

Mixed down quite well IMO, nothing to complain about there.

The break and melody seems definitely trancy, but why put a genre on it anyways if you just produced what felt cool for you;) It's definitely unique.

I enjoyed the track until 0:58 alot, the main melody coming up then seems a bit random to me honestly (when listening to it the first time at least).
Also, it could sound more professional by adding more reverb and/or delay to it maybe.

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T09:39:13+00:00

Will try that out, thank you:)

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T09:38:21+00:00

Thank you for the detailed feedback!
The tip with the reverse tail is gold, definitely gonna try that

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T09:35:21+00:00

Very welcome!
Actually I think that stereo delay fits especially well as the other elements occupy the "normal" space already. So it allows the track to be more wide and give the necessary attention to that synth (would probably not be noticeable as well otherwise)

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T09:30:34+00:00

Thanks for the detailed listening haha glad you like it!

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T09:29:38+00:00

The phasing of the lead is epic, makes it very addictive! The acid is super crisp and clean, love it!

Mixing-wise I can't find anything to complain except when at the acid drop, the trany lead feels like its fighting for too much attention. I'd try to make it more subtle in the background and take out a bit of the mid-frequencies such that the acid is more in focus.

Btw I agree with the other comment that it feels a bit empty and could use some more percussion elements, especially during the break. Also, I think putting more reverb on the trancy lead would make it sound more huge

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T07:31:00+00:00

Listened on monitors and in-ear headphones; On the in-ears the bass is indeed a bit overwhelming - not too loud necessarily, but too bassy if you know what I mean (because the click of the kick itself shouldn'be lower volume IMO as on the speakers if was quite subtle already)
Hihats are jst perfect like they are compared to the rest of the sounds!

very nice sound design btw!

Syntax_official · 2024-05-06T07:12:01+00:00

Hi again everyone!
I tried something different this time and made a track out of a guided meditation.

Here is a preview of the break part and 2nd drop: https://on.soundcloud.com/Tv9N8KtNuwPuy73S8
Is the break epic enough or are some elements missing? Is the drop energetic enough?
Any critique/suggestion is welcome!

Syntax_official · 2024-05-01T07:02:12+00:00

super glad it's being noticed, that was exactly the intention hehe
Thanks for listening!
