@QuintenFrancois
Belgian crypto educator, author of the Dutch-language book De Bitcoinrevolutie. On 30 June he put the bear-market floor between $54,000 and $62,000, and the next day Bitcoin made its low at $58,566. On 13 August he said bottom indicators were flashing at $63,409, before a 36.6% rise. His April call for a bottom in Q4 and his 14 October path to $94,000 both went against him.
In short. Quinten Francois is a crypto educator who posts on X as @QuintenFrancois. On our sample of six dated calls, the record is 2 played out, 2 open, 2 went against. He read the summer floor well, from long-term averages and sentiment. His timing calls did worse: the bottom came in July, not Q4, and his October target of $94,000 was not reached.
His own site says he started investing at 16 and launched the YouTube channel “Young And Investing” at 21, and that he was named to Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2024. It lists him as co-founder of weRate, a review platform built on blockchain, and of the merchandise brand Ahead of the Curve. A 2022 Crypto Insiders interview calls him a Belgian crypto investor and the author of the bestselling Dutch book De Bitcoinrevolutie. His X bio names him CBO of Lokal (@lokal_spot) and gives his location as the United Arab Emirates.
He posts many times a day. Most posts are commentary rather than calls: ETF flows, US debt and deficits, gold against Bitcoin, and jabs at people who wait for lower prices. Posts that only list levels or past patterns are not charted here.
Calls not charted on their own card: on 19 April he posted “Bitcoin 2026 bottom is higher than expected”, with no level. On 11 October he posted “$BTC cycle bottom ✅” and on 4 November “Nope we won’t see a new low.” Both repeat the 19 October call that is charted. On 30 July he posted that Bitcoin “has gone 20-30% below realized price every previous bear market”, with no level for this cycle.

Cycle history and long-term averages. Francois compares this cycle with past ones: days from top to bottom, the 200-week and 300-week averages, the realized price, and how sentiment looked at past lows. He posts short, punchy lines, often with a TradingView or CryptoQuant chart. He calls bottoms more often than targets, and he mocks bears who wait for lower prices.
Bullish on Bitcoin in nearly every post we read. In April he expected the cycle low later in the year, and from August on he called the low in. He treats the fall from $86,000 to $76,000 in October and November as a dip to buy.
Six dated Bitcoin calls from Quinten Francois's own X posts, charted against real price. The tally is 2 played out, 2 open, 2 went against.
“The biggest crypto hack in history and Bitcoin still refuses to collapse. If this is all the selling pressure they can produce, I genuinely think we’re going MUCH higher.”
Said at $77,839. Bitcoin rose to $80,443 (+3.3%) on 5 November, then fell to $75,775 (−2.7%) on 7 November. It is at $75,954 (−2.4%). No level or deadline was given. Open.
𝕏 Post“I genuinely think we’re going MUCH higher.” — Quinten Francois on X↗ x.com“$58,000 $BTC cycle bottom ✅”
Said at $82,020, naming the 1 July low as the bottom of the cycle. Bitcoin has since fallen to $75,775 (−7.6%) on 7 November, still 29.4% above the July low of $58,566. A cycle bottom is only settled in hindsight, so this stays open while Bitcoin holds above $58,000.
𝕏 Post“$58,000 $BTC cycle bottom ✅” — Quinten Francois on X↗ x.com“I think $94k is still on the table for the next few weeks, as long as ~$82k holds”
Said at $83,115, with his chart marking support at about $81,736 and an arrow toward $94,000. Bitcoin's best mark after was $84,082 (+1.2%) on 22 October. It closed under his line at $81,604 on 15 October, fell below $80,000 on 30 October, and reached $75,775 (−8.8%) on 7 November. $94,000 was not reached, and ~$82,000 did not hold. Went against.
𝕏 Post“I think $94k is still on the table” — Quinten Francois on X↗ x.com“Since February, Bitcoin has been giving everyone months to accumulate around these levels. Sentiment is dead. Engagement is dead. Bottom indicators are flashing.”
Said at $63,409. Bitcoin dipped to $62,844 (−0.9%) on 17 August, then rose to $86,597 (+36.6%) on 22 September, the highest daily mark in our window. It is at $75,954 (+19.8%). Played out.
𝕏 Post“Bottom indicators are flashing.” — Quinten Francois on X↗ x.com“Every Bitcoin bear market has bottomed between the 200WMA & 300WMA 200WMA: ~$62,000 300WMA: ~$54,000”
Said at $60,152, inside the zone he gave. The next day Bitcoin made the lowest daily mark of our window, $58,566 (−2.6%), between his two averages, and it never closed lower. It rose to $86,597 (+44.0%) on 22 September and is at $75,954 (+26.3%). Played out.
𝕏 Post“Every Bitcoin bear market has bottomed between the 200WMA & 300WMA” — Quinten Francois on X↗ x.com“Bitcoin cycle bottom will be in Q4 2026 if cycle history repeats”
Said at $73,841. The lowest daily mark of our window came on 1 July, in the third quarter, at $58,566 (−20.7%). Since 1 October, Bitcoin's lowest mark has been $75,775, on 7 November. On 19 October he called $58,000 the cycle bottom himself, so the Q4 timing did not hold. Went against.
𝕏 Post“Bitcoin cycle bottom will be in Q4 2026” — Quinten Francois on X↗ x.comOutcomes are our read of the stated claim against real price, not the author's own scoring. Selection: his X profile feed returned 619 posts of his own, from 4 October to 7 November 2026. We read all of them and chart every post that states a Bitcoin level, a bottom or a direction. Earlier calls come from posts that news coverage linked (Crypto Insiders, Benzinga) and from earlier research, so the April to September part is a sample, not his full feed. A call he repeats is charted once; repeats are listed under Background. The 30 June post states a historical pattern, and we chart it as a call for the zone where this bear market would bottom. Each call is measured from the daily CoinGecko mark on the day it was posted. A call with no deadline stays open until price settles it.
