Fact Check
The assessment is based on a combination of direct and circumstantial evidence. There is one primary source that directly and explicitly supports the statement: a Facebook post from a crypto news account titled "JUST IN: ETH falls under $2,500." While this source has a moderate authority (0.60), its relevance is maximum (1.00) as it directly reports the event.This direct claim is strongly supported by the existence of five high-authority sources (Nasdaq, Kraken, MarketWatch, CoinGecko, Investing.com) whose entire purpose is to provide granular, historical price data for Ethereum. Although these sources do not confirm the event in their summaries, they establish that the price of Ethereum is meticulously tracked and that a drop below a significant psychological level like $2,500 is a plausible and verifiable event. The availability of such robust data makes a specific news report like this highly credible.The sources that could be interpreted as contradictory are weak. One article identifies $2,500 as a key support zone, which implies the price was above it at the time of writing but does not preclude it from having fallen below it at another time. Another source is a price prediction, forecasting a potential crash to $2,500, which is irrelevant as it doesn't describe a past event. Several other high-authority sources were deemed irrelevant due to their content not pertaining to historical prices. In conclusion, the direct evidence from the news report, combined with the verifiability offered by multiple high-authority financial data providers, and the absence of any strong contradictory evidence, makes the statement very likely to be true.
