Polymarket Historical Market Data — Every Tick, €1 a Day

Polymarket historical data on CryptoStruct is the complete record of the venue's on-chain order book — every message of the CLOB feed, not candles or sampled prices: 232,568 contracts so far, July 2025 – present, each one an instrument-day file with every trade print and every Level-2 order-book update, recorded co-located and normalized into the same schema as our crypto venues. Prices are USDC-quoted event probabilities in 0..1 (the sample files quote a 0.001 tick; tick sizes are market-specific), and Polymarket families are matched on the market slug — a btc-updown-5m-… file reads exactly like any other contract file in the archive.

The data is sold as series-day bundles — one bundle is every contract of a series (all Bitcoin 5-minute windows, say) for one UTC day, from €1 — and as single contract-days in the Data Shop. 288 Polymarket series have their own pages with 30 days of per-day statistics, per-contract results grids and one free sample contract file each. Polymarket contract files average about 353 KB compressed (2026-09) — a 15-minute market's book streams for many hours around its window, so there is far more order-book life per contract than on Kalshi.

What the archive adds over a Polymarket price history pulled from the venue: the book. The public CLOB and Gamma endpoints (check the current docs for what they serve today) return current order books, market metadata and sampled price history per token, but a settled market's full Level-2 path — depth, spread, the endgame into resolution — only exists if it was recorded while the market traded. That live recording is what you download here.

1. Find the series: browse Polymarket data by topic or by category, or open the most-traded leaderboard and filter for Polymarket.
2. Try the free sample: every series page offers one complete contract file of a recent settled day — native ticks, CSV/Parquet exports and a browser order-book replay — with no account or email.
3. Pick the days: the series page links into the shop calendar, where each UTC day of the series is one item (from €1). Pay by card with an invoice, or with Premium and pack credits.
4. Download in bulk: one request per day returns every contract file of that day as one ZIP (?kind=series_day&zip=1&complete=1); the range endpoint streams up to 100 owned days as one resumable tar — details in the download notes.
5. Convert if you like: ?format=trades.csv.gz or ?format=trades.parquet on any download link, or the free Python reader for order-book grids — see the formats overview.
6. Follow the walkthrough: How to download Polymarket historical data goes through every step with commands and an MCP recipe for agents.

• Every message of the CLOB feed for every contract of every covered series, recorded live — not a sampled price history.
• Full Level-2 depth per contract with nanosecond timestamps; top-of-book is derived by replaying the book (Polymarket publishes no separate BBO stream, so there is no BBO export — the free reader converts depth locally).
• USDC prices in the files; turnover in our statistics is USD-normalized, so Polymarket and Kalshi series compare directly on the leaderboard.
• One free sample contract per series and full-day samples on the downloads page.
