Prediction evidence

1. Baseline: first BTC price at or after publication, $62,980 at 7 Jul 2026, 14:00 UTC.
2. Evaluation: price at the end of the 24 hours horizon, $61,877 at 8 Jul 2026, 14:00 UTC.
3. r = 61876.56 / 62980.47 − 1 = -1.75%
4. Direction d = −1 (bearish), so d × r = +1.75% against a neutral band of ±1.00% → correct

Only the end-of-horizon price counts. A brief move followed by a reversal is not a success. Read the methodology
