  "notes": "Read the primary Federal Reserve statement for the specified 18:00-18:01 UTC observation interval. It says the Committee decided to raise the federal-funds target range by 1/4 percentage point, from 3-3/4 to 4 percent; therefore the announced change is exactly 25 basis points and the bool answer is true. The requested anchor window was copied exactly. eth_getBlockByNumber(0x18d512d) returned the pinned hash on https://rpc.flashbots.net/fast and https://ethereum-rpc.publicnode.com. No blockchain measurement was used because the request defines the window as an anchor and the evidence as panel evidence."
