BTC price on Oct 31, 2026 at 5pm EDT?
Leaning No: Bitcoin sits only slightly above the threshold, but the October 30 selloff and heavy ETF outflows make a close miss plausible. The market’s 69% Yes price looks a bit high versus that near-term pressure.
Analysis
October 30’s latest reported Bitcoin price was $76,870.01, only slightly above the resolution level. That leaves the outcome highly sensitive to short-term volatility around the final measurement window on October 31.
The bigger near-term signals are negative: a reported Binance hack, roughly $1.57 billion in forced liquidations, and $643.2 million in ETF outflows. Those factors make a brief slip below the cutoff more likely than the raw spot quote alone suggests, though Binance’s reserve backstop reduces crash risk.
Arguments
For
- The latest reported price was still above the cutoff.
- Binance’s reserve allocation may limit additional forced selling.
Against
- Bitcoin already fell to the $76,400-$76,500 area on October 30.
- Heavy ETF outflows suggest weak near-term demand.
Key drivers
- BRTI average only needs to stay above $76,749.99.
- Recent liquidation and ETF flow pressure point downward.
Risk factors
- A late rebound could keep the sixty-second average above the threshold.
- Reduced panic after Binance’s reserve pledge could stabilize Bitcoin.
Scenarios
Best case
If late buying lifts BRTI above the cutoff on Oct. 31, Yes rises to about 72%.
Most likely
Most likely Bitcoin stays near the threshold, with Yes around 66%.
Worst case
If liquidation pressure returns before 5 p.m. EDT, Yes falls to about 40%.

The main reason is that new Call of Duty releases often dominate Steam revenue in their launch window.

AI77%MKT90%Edge-13OvervaluedLeaning No: the clearest reference point is the $0.03 sale price on October 30, 2026, which implies exactly a $30M FDV, not above it. With no confirmed public launch price or stronger post-launch trading support, I lean slightly below the market.
