Grid-Ramp Early-Warning Radar

Research the themes the committee expects to matter — before they go hot.

Cycle 2026-06-17 Quarter Q2 2026 · window 2q Source Strategic Time Grid Run live (firecrawl news, 7d) live-tested

The committee's Strategic Time Grid maps which themes should matter, and when — each cell an expected intensity rising None → Low → Strong over the quarters. The radar reads that grid, computes each theme's forward ramp over the next 1–2 quarters, and pushes research at the themes about to intensify — so coverage history accrues ahead of the move, not after consensus. 7 themes are ramping this window. The top three were swept live.

Surfaced for Play B — Contradiction Tracker

Contradiction candidate

Bitcoin adoption thesis vs. "big buyers lose conviction." The radar's own act-tier finding is evidence against a theme it is ramping research on — ETF and corporate-treasury demand, the structural-adoption backstop, is weakening. Exactly the kind of disconfirming signal the contradiction tracker exists to hold open until rebutted or escalated.
