American Bitcoin analyst who became known for on-chain data and now also trades stocks, oil and metals. In this sample he bought near the low and sold some near the high: on 10 August, at $64,856, he made his first Bitcoin purchases “in a long time”, and Bitcoin rose to $86,597 on 22 September. On 28 September, at $84,449, he trimmed. His later bullish calls are open, and Bitcoin is lower than when he made them.

In short. Will Clemente posts to about 793,000 followers on X. On eight dated Bitcoin calls from July to October 2026, the record is 4 played out, 4 open, 0 went against. He said in July that the bear market was near its end, bought in August and trimmed in late September. His calls that the trend had turned bullish and that the cycle low is in are open. On 29 October he wrote that the “trend is shot for now”, and Bitcoin is 9.3% lower since then.

Background — what is documented, and what is not

Will Clemente, also written William Clemente III, has posted on X since June 2020. His handle was @WClementeIII and is now @WClemente. Cointelegraph Magazine profiled him in May 2023, when he was 21. It reported that he left his studies in August 2021 to work in crypto, and that he and Anthony Pompliano launched Reflexivity Research in September 2021. In January 2024 DeFi Technologies announced a deal to acquire Reflexivity Research. His X bio now reads “market enjoyer & student of life.”

How the sample was built: the X profile feed returned 238 of his own posts from 16 April to 10 November 2026, and 84 of them mention Bitcoin. We chart every post that makes a checkable claim about where Bitcoin goes next, or reports that he bought or sold, once, at the first clear post. Repeats are not charted on their own: his 23 September post that raised the odds of a cycle low to 87% is covered by the 8 September card, and his 23 October post that he had reduced again is covered by the 28 September card. Posts that only describe data, such as holder supply or open interest, are not charted. We found no ETH call in the sample.

His reasons are in a long article he posted on X on 8 August 2026, “Exploring the outlook for Bitcoin”. In it he wrote: “In Jan of this year I reduced the Bitcoin exposure that I still personally had left”. He also wrote “You are very unlikely to buy the exact bottom.” and “I am open to a final leg down at some point throughout the year”. Two days later he posted that he had bought.

Earlier calls, before our price window. In May 2023, with Bitcoin near $27,599, he told Cointelegraph Magazine that the “market has bottomed on a multi-year view.” The magazine wrote that he expected six figures between the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025. Our daily data first shows Bitcoin above $100,000 on 8 December 2024, so that call played out. On 25 January 2026, at about $86,670, he wrote that “it's hard not to see the the resemblance to Q1 2022.” Bitcoin then fell to $58,566 on 1 July.

Trading style & philosophy

On-chain data and positioning. Clemente reads what long-term holders and short-term holders are doing, where coins last moved, and how full the futures and options markets are. He adds weekly moving averages and macro views on debt and interest rates. He gives odds more often than price targets, and he says when he buys, adds or trims his own Bitcoin.

Chop, no new lows · open

“Not trying to be big bear, base case is that BTC kinda chops till EOY, with new HTF lows being unlikely. Just trying to make the point that trend is shot for now until proven otherwise.”

BTC $81.3kLow after $73.7k · -9%Now $73.7k

Prices in this text as of 11 Nov 2026Said at $81,274, in a reply under his own post about the chart. EOY means the end of the year, and HTF lows are the lows on long-term charts. The next day's mark was $77,839 (−4.2%), and Bitcoin is at $73,707 (−9.3%). It is still far above the $58,566 low of 1 July. Open: the call runs to the end of the year, and it fails if Bitcoin sets a new low.

The low of this cycle so far is $58,566, on 1 July, and Bitcoin has not gone back to it. Open: the call fails if Bitcoin closes below that low.

Outcomes are our read of the stated claim against real price, not his own scoring. Selection: from 238 of his own posts between 16 April and 10 November 2026, we chart every post that makes a checkable claim about where Bitcoin goes next, or reports that he bought or sold, once, at the first clear post. Our price data is daily, so the price for each call is the daily mark for the post's date, and moves within a day are not seen. The 19 August post came after Bitcoin had already moved above 65k that day, so that card also gives the next day's mark. The $1,000 line on each card assumes buying, also for the 28 September call, when he sold some, and the 29 October call, which was cautious.

How he makes money — and where the conflicts are

Clemente co-founded a research firm, has worked on investment analysis, and trades his own money. Here is what we found.

Research firm

He co-founded Reflexivity Research with Anthony Pompliano. In January 2024 DeFi Technologies announced a binding letter of intent to acquire it, to be paid in DeFi Technologies shares. We could not check what role he has there now.

Investment analysis work

In his 8 August 2026 article he wrote of “my employment helping with investment analysis at STIX in recent months”, where he looked at quantum computing startups.

His own positions

He holds Bitcoin, bought from 10 August 2026 through ETFs, and he trimmed it on 28 September and again on 23 October. On 28 August he wrote that he “picked up some ZEC under $800”, and on 11 September that he had sold it down “for ~50% gain”. He traded oil in October and wrote on 2 November that he was “Off screens to reset & flat”.

Paid products

We found no paid group, course or referral link in the posts we read. His X bio says “not investment advice, personal opinions which change, etc.”
