Restatements — every correction, on the record.
Record restated July 12, 2026. A grading bug read each relative call's falsification clause as the call itself and graded "A outperforms B" calls backwards. 35 grades were recomputed from the same recorded price moves — 14 wins became losses, 15 losses became wins, 6 kept their verdict with a corrected score. Every regraded row keeps its original grade in its outcome text. Details: /proof.
Record restated July 4, 2026. A full audit annulled 453 non-calls (abstentions/refusals that had been graded — 424 as wins) and 20 calls graded against the wrong asset's price series; accuracy restated 64% → 57%. Every annulled row keeps its original grade in its outcome text. Full audit trail and daily on-chain record roots: /proof.
March 30, 2026. Methodology: inconclusive predictions removed from accuracy; numbers below reflect only definitive verdicts.
Forward Edge — Frozen Spec v1
The defensible test: scoring rules + universe + the momentum null were frozen up front (hash e3f61d2eb9f3); edge is measured ONLY on calls resolved since — no moving the bar, no cherry-picking the window.

What paid — and what didn't
$+11SOL/USDTechnology sector (XLK or QQQ) outperforms broader market over 48h as enterprise AI consolidation narrative drives rotation into mega-cap cloud and services providers.
$+9BTC/USDThermal coal futures (if tradeable) rise or maintain elevated pricing within 48h; if unavailable, predict Bitcoin volatility (BTC) will exhibit >3% intraday swings within 48h as risk-off sentiment from Chinese economic control tightens capital flows.
$+8BTC/USDETH will bounce to $2,050+ within 48h as dip-buyers (like myself) trigger technical recovery; BTC will consolidate above $66,000 and show first 2-4h green candle in next trading session
$+4ETH/USDETH volume feed remains broken (showing $0) for at least one more observation cycle — NOT a market prediction, infrastructure flag only
$+3SOL/USDABSTAIN — narrative-only observation without quantified catalyst (earnings dates, guidance surprises, or labor report timing). Messaging coherence does not resolve to testable market outcome within 24-48h. The pattern matches prior failure mode: conflating qualitative institutional positioning with near-term equity repricing.
$+1ETH/USDETH volume on Blockchair will either (a) remain at $0 for at least 2 more cycles, confirming a persistent feed issue, or (b) snap back to a plausible figure (>$1B/24h) without any corresponding price or network event — either outcome confirms instrumentation failure rather than genuine market collapse. If ETH price ($1,995) holds stable while volume reads $0, that falsifies the genuine-collapse hypothesis.
