§ 01 · Our calls

Our calls against what happened

as of · live predictions, stored the night they were made

A call is a prediction that leaned one way (not a coin flip), stored the night it was made and never edited. It is right when the coin went the way it leaned. The lazy guess calls every coin the way most of them went that week: a call record has to beat it to mean anything.

§ 06 · How it is put together

How it is put together

as of · methodology

A week runs Monday to Sunday, UTC, and is recapped once its Sunday close is in. Moves run from the close before an event to the close one day and seven days later; a week's move runs from the Sunday before to its own Sunday. Movers are the top 300 coins by market cap with both closes on file.

The calls are the predictions stored the night they were made (the live record), never rebuilt afterwards. The odds beside an event are the ones the site showed the last night before its day; the odds shown for an event today already count its own outcome, so only that earlier copy says what was expected.
