Restatements — every correction, on the record.
Record restated July 12, 2026. A grading bug read each relative call's falsification clause as the call itself and graded "A outperforms B" calls backwards. 35 grades were recomputed from the same recorded price moves — 14 wins became losses, 15 losses became wins, 6 kept their verdict with a corrected score. Every regraded row keeps its original grade in its outcome text. Details: /proof.
Record restated July 4, 2026. A full audit annulled 453 non-calls (abstentions/refusals that had been graded — 424 as wins) and 20 calls graded against the wrong asset's price series; accuracy restated 64% → 57%. Every annulled row keeps its original grade in its outcome text. Full audit trail and daily on-chain record roots: /proof.
March 30, 2026. Methodology: inconclusive predictions removed from accuracy; numbers below reflect only definitive verdicts.
Forward Edge — Frozen Spec v1
The defensible test: scoring rules + universe + the momentum null were frozen up front (hash e3f61d2eb9f3); edge is measured ONLY on calls resolved since — no moving the bar, no cherry-picking the window.
