BiyaPay Analyst: US Stock Listed Company BitMine Continues to Rise, Tom Lee States Ethereum at a Key Moment, Target Price $15,000
BlockBeats News, August 8th, Tom Lee, the new chairman of the US-listed company BitMine, recently stated that Ethereum (ETH) is currently at a key moment similar to Bitcoin in 2017. With Wall Street's increasing focus on cryptocurrency, Lee believes that Ethereum is becoming a core platform in the financial market's "tokenization" process, and he expects this to be one of the largest macro trading events in the next decade.
Lee specifically mentioned that Ethereum should not be compared to Bitcoin but should be compared to the traditional financial market. If forced to choose between Bitcoin and Ethereum, he is more inclined towards ETH. On August 2nd, BitMine's chairman Lee pointed out that traditional financial institutions are steadily and quietly increasing their holdings of cryptocurrency, especially Ethereum. This is due to its legal clarity and technical reliability, and Ethereum has never experienced a crash, which is crucial for institutions such as banks.
Currently, BitMine holds 625,000 ETH, with assets totaling nearly $2.8 billion and almost no debt. At the same time, the company announced a $1 billion stock buyback plan and reiterated its goal of accumulating 5% of the total Ethereum supply. Lee also stated that if there is a change in the Fed's monetary policy, especially in the case of a rate cut, Bitcoin could skyrocket to $250,000. Based on Ethereum's fundamentals, he believes the fair price of ETH should be $15,000, while the current price is around $3,700.
For cryptocurrency investors, the BiyaPay platform provides users with a seamless trading experience. The platform supports the exchange of more than 200 cryptocurrencies including BTC, ETH, and offers spot and contract trading with zero transaction fees, allowing users to enjoy the advantage of low-cost trading.
