I founded redeemed error.

$ polymarket ctf redeem --condition 0xeb3cc5dd1510216ec94344bc2475cbb80bb86555d1117a1022022cd15ba6da34

Error: Redeem positions failed
(base)

pls ,help me

This is a known issue — the CLI's ctf redeem sometimes fails silently when the condition hasn't fully resolved on-chain yet, or when the gas estimation fails on Polygon.

Quick fix — check these first:

1. Is the condition actually resolved? Check on-chain:

   cast call 0x4D97DCd97eC945f40cF65F87097ACe5EA0476045 "payoutDenominator(bytes32)" 0xeb3cc5dd1510216ec94344bc2475cbb80bb86555d1117a1022022cd15ba6da34 --rpc-url https://polygon-rpc.com
   

   If it returns 0, the condition hasn't resolved yet — wait and retry.

2. Gas issues on Polygon — the RPC might be returning stale gas prices. Try with a different RPC endpoint (--rpc-url https://polygon.llamarpc.com).

3. Multiple positions on same condition — if you have both YES and NO tokens, you need to redeem them together in one call.

Alternative: standalone redemption tool

I built polymarket-settlement-bot specifically because this keeps breaking in the CLI. It handles:

• Auto-detection of resolved conditions
• Gnosis Safe execTransaction for proxy wallets
• Batch redemption of all resolved positions at once
• Retry logic for Polygon gas spikes

pip install requests web3
python3 redeem.py --check    # see what's redeemable
python3 redeem.py --redeem   # redeem all resolved positions

The most common cause of "Redeem positions failed" is calling redeemPositions before payoutDenominator > 0 — the CLI doesn't check this before attempting the transaction.

ok, the position has been "redeem true" status.

i'll try your ways, thx

Yup, it is failing. You will have to increase the gas to max 200gwei.

It started 2 days ago, some gas estimator broke.
