Prediction evidence

1. Baseline: first BTC price at or after publication, $78,562 at 31 Aug 2026, 16:00 UTC.
2. Evaluation: price at the end of the 24 hours horizon, $77,881 at 1 Sept 2026, 16:00 UTC.
3. r = 77881.43 / 78561.64 − 1 = -0.9%
4. Direction d = +1 (bullish), so d × r = -0.9% (neutral only if the price is unchanged) → incorrect

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