CEO of the organization Nangeng Zhang said in the report that although the firm registered sales growth in autumn, there was a “significant drop” in December against the backdrop of BTC rate volatility.
“COVID-19 negatively influenced the overall business, economy, and monetary markets, including the crypto market; we have reduced our forecasts for the company's business for 2020. Canaan anticipates total revenue of at least 60 million yuan ($8.5 million) in the Q1 of 2020,” the paper said.
