BlockBeats News, February 6th, according to Coinbob Popular Address Monitor data, the "Ultimate Bear" whale (0x5d2) has opened BTC short positions four times since January last year. The first three positions together lost about 5.48 million US dollars, while the most recent short position realized a significant profit. The current short position has accumulated approximately 10.05 million US dollars in funding fee income, with a contract profit of over 61 million US dollars, resulting in a total annual profit of 71 million US dollars.
