Breaking: Polymarket just rolled out a new taker-only fee structure for its 15-minute crypto prediction markets. Here's the interesting part—these fees get distributed daily in USDC straight to market makers as liquidity rebates. It's a clever way to incentivize deeper liquidity pools and keep the spreads tight. The model essentially shifts the fee burden toward takers while rewarding those providing liquidity, creating a more balanced ecosystem for short-term traders.

Maker takes the money, taker gets cut, I see through this trick.

This move is a bit ruthless. It has nurtured market makers, and retail investors are getting hurt even more.

Market makers directly receive USDC rebates, while takers suffer heavy losses... Being smart is one thing, but if this continues, how will retail investors survive?

Oh no, now makers are going to make a fortune makers eat the meat, takers drink the soup, classic example It should have been done this way long ago, can the spread really tighten? This is essentially acting as a market maker subsidy, clever I just want to know if anyone will arbitrage for profit

This mechanism is actually using takers to support makers; it should have been like this a long time ago.
