What counted as right

Status
resolved
Settled on
2019-12-23

XRP's 50-day moving average crosses above its 200-day moving average (a golden cross) on or before 2019-12-23.

Criterion (50MA crosses above 200MA on/before 2019-12-23) was NOT met — the 50MA stayed below the 200MA for the whole window. MAs computed from single-exchange (Binance) daily closes; the death-cross-then-persistent-below state is unambiguous and corroborated by the documented downtrend, so exchange choice does not change the outcome. resolved_on set to the deadline (window elapsed without occurrence).

Evidence of what happened

  • Computed from Binance XRPUSDT daily closes: XRP's 50-day SMA remained well below its 200-day SMA throughout the entire prediction window. On the deadline (2019-12-23), 50MA ≈ $0.236 vs 200MA ≈ $0.294, and the gap was widening, not closing. A death cross (50MA crossing below 200MA) had occurred on 2019-08-14 and no golden cross followed on or before 2019-12-23. No golden cross occurred.

    Evidence

  • Independent corroboration: XRP was in a confirmed 2018–2020 bear-market downtrend, with analysts noting a 50/200 death cross around Oct 2019 after which XRP kept falling to ~$0.11 in March 2020. XRP averaged ~$0.27 (Nov 2019) and ~$0.20 (Dec 2019), a sustained decline that precludes a golden cross.
