therealbatman

therealbatman is a name that anyone involved in the 2024 U.S. election markets on Polymarket will instantly recognize. Known for his bol positions, he placed nearly $2 million across key markets.

His strategy was focused and unwavering: he bet heavily on Joe Biden winning the Democratic nomination and remaining in the presidential race through to the 2024 general election. To many, these positions looked like long term bonds, treated almost like a personal bond with huge capital locked in.

But as the political narrative evolved, everything change. Biden eventually dropped out of the race, and in a shocking twist, Democrats went on to lose the popular vote, shaking the foundation of what had once seemed like “safe” positions. For therealbatman, the consequences were severe: his profits collapsed, and with them, one of the most dramatic turns in Polymarket history was written.

And yet, he didn’t give up.

Despite the massive losses, he continued trading, managing to partially recover through positions in the Ethereum ETF approval market. It wasn’t enough to fully return to previous levels, but it showed a level of resolve that many in the community respected.

Currently, he is no longer active, and his wallet has gone quiet. Still, rumors circulate: some speculate a return in 2026 during the midterms, others whisper about a comeback for the 2028 presidential cycle. Whether he reappears or not, one thing is certain:

The name therealbatman will be remembered.

His trades were crazy, his rise and fall unforgettable, and his impact on Polymarket lore cemented in the memory of those who lived through the most volatile moments of 2024.
