Benjamin Cowen called it:
“So I think what's happening is you're probably going to see altcoins stop bleeding against Bitcoin in the coming months. I'm not saying it's over yet, but you might see them slow down that bleed for a little while as they sort of fall into these range lows and try to form a low.”

This will never resolve. No objective test could be drawn from these words without inventing criteria the speaker never set, so it is preserved rather than scored. It stays on the record as something said on a date, and is never counted for or against anyone.

No objective test could be drawn from these words, so nothing can settle it. The statement is preserved and dated, and never counted for or against anyone. Thonest will not invent a threshold or a date that was never said — a claim scored against criteria written afterwards would prove nothing.

They hit the range lows a month after quantitative tightening ended, and around the time the Fed funds rate was near the two-year yield. So I think what's happening is you're probably going to see altcoins stop bleeding against Bitcoin in the coming months. I'm not saying it's over yet, but you might see them slow down that bleed for a little while as they sort of fall into these range lows and try to form a low.

History — append-only
Registered wording came from the extraction model's normalized claim rather than the source itself. The statement of record is now the verbatim excerpt from the source at 2822s. Was: "I think what's happening is you're probably going to see altcoins stop bleeding against Bitcoin in the coming months." Source says: "So I think what's happening is you're probably going to see altcoins stop bleeding against Bitcoin in the coming months. I'm not saying it's over yet, but you might see them slow down that bleed for a little while as they sort of fall into these range lows and try to form a low." The original record and its anchor remain in history unchanged; this correction is appended.

✓ The anchored proof cannot be rewritten, and the published record is append-only by default. Everything that happened afterward is in the history above — corrections are appended, never silently edited in.
The check runs in your browser and reads the anchored root straight from a public Base node — not from Thonest. How this works.
