Kobeissi et al. claimed sustained recovery, referring to unusually high measurements from the Vix Volatility Index.
“$VIX dates back to 1990 and only 11% back to 1990,” continued Timothy Peterson, a network economist who created several Bitcoin price prediction tools.
“To put it another way, there's an 89% chance that today has gone down.”
