What counted as right

Status
resolved
Settled on
2020-12-16

Bitcoin's price does not reach $20,000 at any point during 2020.

Criterion is that BTC does NOT reach $20,000 at any point during 2020. Multiple credible sources confirm it exceeded $20,000 on 2020-12-16, within the deadline. Evidence contradicts the written criterion. (No outcome value assigned.)

Evidence of what happened

  • Bitcoin broke above $20,000 for the first time ever on 2020-12-16, reaching ~$20,600-$20,700 (Coin Metrics market data), during the deadline window (any point in 2020).

    Evidence

  • TechCrunch and Fortune corroborate BTC passing $20K and setting a new all-time high on 2020-12-16; the next day (2020-12-17) it extended above $23,000.
