Bitcoin (BTC/USD spot, major-exchange consensus price) trades at or above $100,000 at any point on or before 2024-12-31.
Criterion ('trades at or above $100,000 at any point on or before 2024-12-31') was satisfied on 2024-12-05, three days after the claim was made on 2024-12-02, and the level was exceeded repeatedly through mid-December. resolved_on is set to the date the criterion condition was first met rather than the deadline. The canonical claim's qualifier 'well above' is also comfortably met on the written criterion's terms: the in-window peak of 108,268.45 (2024-12-17) is ~8.3% above $100,000, and BTC posted several closes above $100k. No outcome value assigned - scoring is a later stage. Evidence is major-exchange consensus spot data (Yahoo's BTC-USD composite) plus an independent aggregator, matching the criterion's 'major-exchange consensus price' basis. No conflicting evidence found.

Evidence of what happened
Yahoo Finance daily OHLC for BTC-USD, 2024-11-30 through 2024-12-31, retrieved via the chart API. Bitcoin's daily high first reached/exceeded US$100,000 on 2024-12-05 (high 103,900.47; prior day 2024-12-04 high was 99,207.33). The highest print inside the criterion window was 108,268.45 on 2024-12-17, and BTC closed above $100,000 on multiple days (e.g. 101,236.02 on 2024-12-08; 106,140.60 on 2024-12-17).
CoinGecko bitcoin page confirms bitcoin's all-time-high trajectory and that the $100k level was cleared in this era; page lists ATH $126,080 on 2025-10-06, i.e. far above $100,000, confirming the level was decisively passed and held well beyond the 2024 window.
Wikipedia 'History of bitcoin' timeline records that bitcoin reached $100,000 on December 5, 2024 - an independent corroboration of the exchange-data crossing date.
