Market Discussion
The target price refers to a Polymarket Ethereum Up-or-Down 15-minute market for April 29, 2026, 5:00–5:15 PM ET, which resolved Up from an opening price of $2,239.78 [1]. Discussion around Polymarket's 15-minute crypto markets includes debate over newly introduced taker fees, described as a "speed tax" intended to reduce high-frequency bot profitability, though commenters disagreed on their effectiveness [2]. While a social-media project documented a bot for such prediction markets, it provided no verified performance results [3].
