What counted as right

Status
resolved
Settled on
2021-12-31

BTC spot price does not reach >= $100,000 at any point through 2021-12-31.

Criterion ('BTC spot price does not reach >= $100,000 at any point through 2021-12-31') is satisfied. Peak spot price in the 2020-2021 window was ~$69,000 (Nov 10, 2021), roughly 31% below the $100k threshold. Bitcoin first reached $100,000 in December 2024, well after the deadline. No conflicting credible evidence — the ~$69k 2021 all-time high is uncontested across sources. resolved_on set to the deadline date since the criterion is a not-reached-by threshold that could only be finally confirmed at period close.

Evidence of what happened

  • Bitcoin's all-time high during 2020-2021 was reached on November 10, 2021, at approximately $68,982-$69,000 (nominal record ~$69,225 on Coinbase intraday). This was the peak for the entire 2020-2021 period; BTC never traded at or above $100,000 at any point through 2021-12-31.

    Evidence

  • Confirmation that the November 2021 high of ~$69,000 stood as Bitcoin's all-time high for more than two years; BTC did not surpass it (still below $70k, far below $100k) until March 2024, and first crossed $100,000 only in December 2024. This confirms BTC never hit six figures in 2020 or 2021.

Corrections
