[‘Doomsday Report’ Author Started Shorting Bitcoin in Mid-November Last Year and Predicted a Drop to $69,000 in the First Half of This Year] BlockBeats News, February 25: According to past tweets from Citrini Research, the author of the ‘Doomsday Report,’ the institution began shorting Bitcoin on November 17 last year while going long on the Nasdaq. On February 1 this year, the Citrini Research account posted that it ‘regretted closing positions too early.’ Additionally, during last year’s Christmas period, Citrini Research also predicted that Bitcoin’s price would drop to $69,000 in the first half of this year. Previously, it was reported that the research institution Citrini Research released a report introducing the concept of a ‘Global Intelligence Crisis,’ warning that AI could trigger a ‘race to the bottom’ for knowledge-based jobs, disrupting the industry and credit chains built around white-collar productivity. This report caused a sharp decline in U.S. stocks on Monday.
