The Track Record

The Score reached its exit zone
before every cycle top since 2013.
It was also early, late and wrong,
and this page shows you where.

Ten times since 2013 the LiftOffr Score has crossed into the exit zone. Every one of those crossings is below with its date, its price, and what Bitcoin did over the following 30, 90 and 180 days — including the 2017 crossing after which BTC rose 149% in a month. Every figure comes from the same 64-row log at /receipts, and every one is recomputable from free public data.

Corrected 20 Aug 2026

This page used to claim “four cycle tops, the composite flagged all four,” with a table underneath that credited three of those four exits to Pi Cycle alone — the single indicator this page exists to argue against — and no row at all for 2025. It also argued that Fear & Greed and Google Trends “missed” the 2025 top. Those two carry zero weight in the Score, so they could not have missed anything it relies on. All of that is rebuilt below from the signal log. Where this page and /indicator-history disagreed on a reading, /indicator-history now governs and the value here is shown as the approximation it always was. Three different 2013 peak prices were also live across the site ($1,150, ~$1,163 and $1,119); one basis is now used everywhere. Cycle peaks and bottoms on this page are intraday highs and lows. Signal prices are CBBI daily closes, because that is the series the Score runs on. The two differ and saying which is which is the difference between a rounding note and a discrepancy.

October 2025 — the case that matters

Pi Cycle never fired in 2025.
The Score was in its exit zone anyway
— and stayed there through the top.

This is the argument for weighting nine components instead of trusting one, and it is also the clearest example of what a threshold model costs you. The Score crossed into the exit zone on 27 June 2025 at $107,091, BTC peaked at $124,824 on 6 October, and the Score did not leave the exit zone until 21 October — fifteen days after the peak. It was in the right zone. It was not a clean exit.

Pi Cycle Top
No cross
Reached 83% of its threshold and stopped. First cycle it hasn't fired since 2013.
Exit-zone transitions
3 in, 3 out
In on 16 Nov 2024, 8 May and 27 Jun 2025; back out on 18 Feb, 19 Jun and 21 Oct 2025 — six transitions in twelve months. A threshold model whipsaws, and pretending otherwise sells you a decision you would not actually have made.
Left the zone
15 days late
21 Oct 2025 at $108,700, against a 6 Oct peak of $124,824. The Score was in its exit zone for the top, which is the useful part — it did not call the day.
The LiftOffr composite
In the zone, not on the day
The Score sat above its 85 exit threshold from 27 June 2025 through the October peak, with MVRV Z-Score and Puell Multiple both elevated, while Pi Cycle — a 10% component — never crossed. That is what weighting nine inputs buys you: one component going quiet does not silence the number. It does not buy you a date.
BTC peak
$124,824
October 6, 2025

That's why the Score weights nine indicators instead of trusting one. Every cycle breaks a different signal. The Score is built so that when one component goes quiet, the other eight still carry the number — which is a claim about robustness, not about precision.

What the data showed
at every peak.

Indicator readings at or within one week of each cycle top. Every threshold is independently documented and publicly verifiable.

Two things to hold while you read these. The “confluence at N of 6” counts in the timelines are a legacy heuristic — a hand count of how many of these six indicators were in their own top zones. That is not the LiftOffr Score, which is a weighted average of nine components with published weights and a single 0–100 output. Where the two disagree, the Score is the product and the count is background. And the readings themselves are approximations that vary by data source and by which day you call “the top”; every value here now matches /indicator-history, which is the page that owns them.

📊
What the Score itself did: it crossed into the exit zone on 21 Nov 2013 at $721, nine days before the $1,163 peak. Bitcoin was 32.0% lower 180 days later. The Pi Cycle cross on 18 Nov is one 10%-weighted component of that crossing, not the signal itself — the old version of this page credited the whole exit to Pi Cycle, which is not what the model does. No “drawdown avoided” figure is quoted, because that number assumes a full sale at the crossing and no re-entry, which is neither the plan nor what happened.

📊
What the Score itself did, and it is the least flattering row on the site: it crossed into the exit zone on 17 Nov 2017 at $7,729 — thirty days before the $19,783 peak and 61% below it. Bitcoin then rose 149.1% in the next thirty days. Anyone who sold there and stayed out missed the entire final leg. At 180 days it was still +7.7%. The model was directionally early by a wide margin and this is what “a cycle-zone tool, not a top-caller” means in practice.

What the Score itself did: it crossed into the exit zone twice ahead of this top — 3 Jan 2021 at $33,278 and 2 Feb 2021 at $35,596, 101 and 71 days early, both roughly 45% below the April peak. Bitcoin was higher 180 days after both (+1.5% and +12.3%). The Pi Cycle cross on 12 Apr came far later and is a 10% component, not the model. Puell did clear its ≥4× threshold here, at ~5–6×. The ~3.5× figure that used to sit in this paragraph is the November reading, not April’s — /indicator-history gives ~5–6 for April and ~3–3.5 for November, and it governs.
2021 ② BTC Peak — $69,044  ·  Nov 10, 2021

📊
What the Score itself did, and this is the cycle where it looks best: it crossed into the exit zone on 19 Oct 2021 at $64,291 and again on 9 Nov 2021 at $67,096 — the second crossing landing one day before the $69,044 peak. Bitcoin was 38.2% and 49.2% lower 180 days later. Pi Cycle did not cross at this top; the number held up without it, which is the actual argument for weighting nine components.
Why this matters: The November 2021 top is the best argument against reading any single indicator. Pi Cycle never crossed. Puell had come down from its April peak. Only two of the six tracked here were in top territory — and the weighted Score still crossed into its exit zone on 19 Oct and again on 9 Nov, the second landing one day before the peak. There is no “3 or more indicators” rule anywhere in the method: the Score is a weighted average of nine components, and that is what produced this. Which is why it weights nine, not one.

📊
What the Score itself did: it crossed into the exit zone on 27 Jun 2025 at $107,091 and was still above the 85 threshold when Bitcoin peaked at $124,824 on 6 October. It left the zone on 21 Oct 2025 at $108,700 — fifteen days after the peak. At 180 days that June crossing was −18.2%.

Pi Cycle, a 10% component, never crossed in this cycle; MVRV, Puell, RUPL, 2YMA and Reserve Risk were all elevated, and the weighted number stayed in the exit band regardless. That is a claim about the Score being robust to one component going quiet. It is not a claim that it called the top. Fear & Greed and Google Trends are cited on this page as context only — both carry zero weight, so neither could have failed the model.
Why this matters: a cycle can top without retail euphoria, so anyone reading one price signal (Pi Cycle) or one sentiment gauge would have had nothing to act on. A weighted composite still produced a number. What it did not produce was a date — it entered the exit zone three times between November 2024 and October 2025 and dropped back out three times — six transitions in all, and the ladder exists because of that, not in spite of it. The same Score is published every morning in the daily brief and recomputable by anyone from the nine published weights.

This is the record. What it does not tell you is what you will do when the Score next moves — and deciding that in the moment is the expensive part. The $29 plan is the nine levels I have written down for my own position, plus a worksheet that turns your stack size into your own ladder. 30 days to read it; if it isn’t worth $29 I refund it, no form and no reason needed.

Every exit-zone crossing,
and what happened next.

All ten times the LiftOffr Score crossed into the exit zone, copied from the log at /receipts. The forward columns are what Bitcoin actually did from that price — not what a ladder would have captured, and not adjusted for anything. Green is the model being right about direction. Red is it being wrong.

2025 ② Jun 27, 2025 85.4 $107,091 +11.5% +1.9% -18.2% 101 days before the top; still in the zone at the top

Read the table honestly, because I am not going to summarise it for you flatteringly. Six of the ten crossings were followed by a lower price 180 days later. Four were not. The 2017 crossing was followed by BTC rising 149% in thirty days — anyone who acted on it and did not come back missed the entire blow-off. The November 2024 crossing was followed by six more months of upside. The two 2021 crossings in October and November are the ones that look like the marketing.

There is no “drawdown avoided” column any more. The old one credited three of four exits to a Pi Cycle cross rather than to the Score, quoted a range (51–83%) whose bottom end was silently dropped from the hero, and had no row for 2025 at all. A drawdown-avoided figure also assumes you sold everything at the crossing and never bought back, which is not what the plan does and not what I did.
