Polymarket BTC 5m historical data
A useful BTC 5m backtest often needs more than a final price or a candle. BTC5m Data packages timestamped market state, Full-L2 snapshots, best bid/ask quotes, reference prices and machine-readable quality evidence into one research-ready window.
Public sample data is synthetic. Availability of real third-party-derived fields is subject to applicable redistribution rights.
Why BTC 5m is different
BTC up/down contracts turn over quickly. For research, the important question is often not just where the market finished, but what liquidity, spread and depth were actually visible during the window.
That is why the package keeps the market window, both outcome tokens, timestamps and book state tied together instead of reducing the window to a single number.
Package structure
book_snapshots.parquet plus flattened book_levels.parquet.
quotes.parquet for best bid / ask analysis without rebuilding depth first.
reference_prices.parquet with provenance and redistribution status kept explicit.
Window boundaries, tokens, market identifiers and capture state.
SHA256, row counts, time bounds and file-level provenance.
Coverage, missing-rate, gaps and recorder metrics for deciding whether to use the window.
Quality gate
Each capture must finish as FULL_WINDOW and pass the coverage check before it can enter the internal package inventory. A partial capture stays rejected instead of being silently filled or relabeled.
