Benjamin Cowen called it:
“What I think is the most likely outcome for altcoins is honestly, I still think that alt-Bitcoin pairs might fall in again and form a low. But I think they're going to do what they did last cycle, where they just kind of consolidate down at these lows for a year and a half.”
On the record 33 days and counting. Nobody can edit it, including Benjamin.
No objective test could be drawn from these words without inventing criteria the speaker never set, so it is preserved rather than scored.
This is kept for what it is: something said, on a date, from a source anyone can check. No test was locked, so nothing settles it and it is 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.

Benjamin Cowen: What I think is the most likely outcome for altcoins is honestly, I still think that alt-Bitcoin pairs might fall in again and form a low, maybe a double bottom or a slightly lower low. Benjamin Cowen: But I think they're going to do what they did last cycle, where they just kind of consolidate down at these lows for a year and a half. Benjamin Cowen: A lot of people thought, I think mistakenly, that the minute alt-Bitcoin pairs come down here, that you have an alt season.

History — append-only
The registered excerpt began "But I think they're going to do what they did last cycle" with no referent for "they". Extended backwards to the sentence naming alt-Bitcoin pairs. Was: "But I think they're going to do what they did last cycle, where they just kind of consolidate down at these lows for a year and a half." Statement of record: "What I think is the most likely outcome for altcoins is honestly, I still think that alt-Bitcoin pairs might fall in again and form a low. But I think they're going to do what they did last cycle, where they just kind of consolidate down at these lows for a year and a half." A transcript segment is an ~8-second transcription chunk, not a unit of meaning. The excerpt now runs to the boundaries of the thought. The original record and its anchor are unchanged.
Proof
Disputes
No disputes have been filed. If something here is wrong — a misquote, a wrong date, a misattributed source — say so and it gets answered on the record. How disputes work.

✓ 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.
