Tom Lee, a leading figure in the financial world and Chairman of the Board of Bitmine, made striking analyses regarding the future of cryptocurrency markets, and Ethereum in particular, in his latest strategy report.
Lee argued that Ethereum’s three consecutive months of gains were historically the most concrete evidence that the “crypto winter” was over.
Lee highlighted Ethereum’s resilience despite tensions between the US and Iran. Noting that $ETH has risen for three consecutive months, Lee stated that a close above $2,100 in May would be a historic signal. “No period in history where Ethereum has risen for three consecutive months has been considered a ‘crypto winter’; this is a sign that spring has arrived,” Lee said.
In his analysis, Lee described $ETH as an asset correlated with software stocks, noting that it was the best-performing asset as a “wartime store of value” during the Iran-Iraq conflict.
Tom Lee shared price targets for Ethereum based on three different scenarios:
- Return to Historical Average: If Bitcoin reaches $250,000 and the $ETH/BTC ratio returns to its average, then $ETH will be at $12,000.
- 2021 Peak Rate: If the rate reaches 2021 levels, $ETH will be $22,000.
- The Payment Infrastructure of the Future: If $ETH becomes a global payment infrastructure, its price will be $62,000.
At the end of his message, Lee touched upon Bitmine’s activities, announcing that the company has reached 4% of the total Ethereum supply and aims to increase this to 5% by 2026.
