BlockBeats News, January 23rd, according to Coinbob Popular Address Monitor, the "Ultimate Bear" whale (0x5d2) has opened Bitcoin short positions four times since January last year. The first three positions resulted in a total loss of approximately $5.48 million, while the most recent short position has seen a significant profit. This short position has currently accumulated approximately $9.94 million in funding fee income, with a contract profit exceeding $55.6 million, bringing its total annual profit to $65.5 million. Since December 26th last year, this address has not made any further adjustments.

Currently, it still holds a BTC short position with 20x leverage, with a size of approximately $44.5 million, an average price of around $11,150, a liquidation price of $10,660, and an unrealized profit of about $11.2 million (505%).
