April 2026 Report

Perplexity dominated April's accuracy leaderboard at 95.3% — well clear of the rest of the field. Gemini remains the most controversial voice — its 2030 base case sits 68% above the AI consensus of $298,194. Bitcoin climbed from $68,231 to $77,154 across the month — a +13.1% move. And the next halving is now just 695 days away (~23 months) — sell pressure keeps tightening as the cycle progresses.

🎉 New This Month

This is a milestone month: 7-day and 30-day accuracy scores both went live for the first time. The longer the horizon, the more meaningful the track record becomes — these are the early data points that will compound into real signal.

🏆 Model of the Month

Every day at 06:00 UTC each model gets the same prompt: predict where BTC will be in 7, 30, 90, 180 and 360 days. Once the actual price arrives, we score them. April's winner pulled away from the pack — here's how the leaderboard ended the month.

🏆
Model of the month
Perplexity
95.3%
A
Perplexity leads the 7-day leaderboard with 95.3% accuracy — tracking within a few percent of the real BTC price on most days. That's 80.8 percentage points ahead of Gemini (14.5%), the widest gap between first and last this month.
📊 Accuracy Leaderboard

Accuracy is calculated as 1 − (|predicted − actual| / actual). A score of 95% means the prediction was within ~5% of the real price on the target day. We grade A (95%+), B (85–95%), and C (below 85%). 30/90/180/360-day scores unlock progressively as predictions reach their target dates — first 30-day scores unlock May 1.

🎯 AI Consensus Predictions

Each model gives a low / base / high case for every year from 2027 to 2100. The "consensus" below is the trimmed mean of the base cases — we drop the top and bottom predictions and average the rest, which keeps a single outlier (looking at you, Gemini) from skewing the picture. The most bullish and most conservative columns show the widest views in the room.

Year Consensus Most Bullish Most Conservative
2027 $142,500 Perplexity · $250,000 Mistral · $100,000

⛏ Halving Countdown

Roughly every four years, the Bitcoin block reward halves — cutting new BTC supply in half overnight. The last halving was April 2024, dropping the reward to 3.125 BTC per block. Historically, the year following a halving has produced major bull runs as supply tightens. The next one is estimated for March 2028.

💡 Most Controversial Prediction
Most controversial prediction

Gemini's 2030 base case of $500,000 sits 68% above the AI consensus of $298,194. On short-term predictions it has 14.5% accuracy (Grade C). Whether that divergence reflects genuine insight or systematic bias is what the accuracy scores will eventually reveal.
⚖ Prediction Stability
Variance = average daily % deviation from each model's own mean 2030 prediction. Low variance = consistent. High variance = changes mind frequently.
Model Variance Unique values
Qwen 0.0% Stable 1 / 29 days
Command R 3.0% Stable 2 / 31 days
Grok 11.2% Moderate 14 / 31 days
DeepSeek 12.9% Moderate 6 / 31 days
Perplexity 13.5% Moderate 4 / 28 days
Llama 16.2% Moderate 7 / 20 days
Claude 24.1% Volatile 10 / 31 days
ChatGPT 26.5% Volatile 7 / 31 days
Gemini 26.8% Volatile 9 / 31 days
Mistral 36.6% Volatile 14 / 30 days
Qwen is the most consistent — barely moves its 2030 forecast. Mistral is the most volatile — changes its prediction the most day to day.
