Still open alongside it: ep.17's call that Bitcoin closes Friday, November 13 below $75,000. The grade, in public The Scoreboard exists for one reason: a call you can check beats an opinion you can't. Ep.16's call — Bitcoin below $80,000 at Monday's close — was not close. Bitcoin closed Monday at $75,368.41, more than $4,600 under the line. We record it as a hit, and we record it in the same type size as last month's misses, because that is the entire product: 7 hits, 7 misses, nothing quietly deleted. One grade is still pending. Ep.17 called Bitcoin to close Friday, November 13 below $75,000. With spot near $73,500 after the print, that call is ahead — but it grades Friday, not today, and it will be graded on Friday's official close whatever it prints. What the print changed October's inflation report was the last major data point before the Fed's December meeting, and it pointed the wrong way for anyone positioned for relief: headline +0.4% against a +0.3% consensus, core +0.3% against +0.2% (Bureau of Labor Statistics, released 8:30 a.m. ET, November 10). Bitcoin's reaction was immediate — down roughly 2% to a session low of $73,494 in the minutes after the release — and the read-through is mechanical: a hotter print cements bets on a December hike, a hiking Fed is a headwind for the asset that spent five straight weeks closing lower, and there was no bid waiting underneath. Price has so far held above $73,000. \"Held\" is doing a lot of work in that sentence: the asset is below its 50-week average — the weekly candle closed just under it and has not reclaimed it — and below the trend lines it lost on November 5. The nearest shelf is about $72,800; below that, traders are watching $71,900 and then open air toward $65,000. The quiet number: seven straight sessions out The loudest number in the tape is not the price. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs bled $201 million on Monday, led by $213.2 million out of BlackRock's IBIT — its seventh consecutive session of redemptions (Farside Investors). Institutions are not panic-selling; they are doing something more bearish for the near term: steadily leaving, into a market whose marginal buyer just got a hotter inflation print and a more likely rate hike. A bounce can still come — short positioning is crowded, and crowded shorts are fuel. But a bounce that raises your rates is not a bid, and until the flow line turns, every rally in this tape is a sale waiting for a seller. The call Bitcoin closes Thursday, November 12, 2026 below $72,500 (Binance BTC/USDT daily close — the house grading source). The reasoning, on the record: a hot print, a hiking Fed, an empty bid, and a price already sitting on the last shelf at $72,800. Shelves under this much weight do not usually hold twice. If Thursday closes above $72,500, the call is a miss and it will be graded as one, in public, in the same type size as today's hit. The White Report — Where Super Intelligence Meets Money.
