Tom Lee Sets $10,000–$15,000 Ethereum Target for 2025 as BitMine Discloses 2.15 Million ETH
He says perceived neutrality could make Ethereum the venue favored by U.S. policymakers, with Wall Street following.
Overview
- Speaking at Korea Blockchain Week, the Fundstrat co-founder and BitMine chairman projected Ethereum could reach $12,000–$15,000 by the end of 2025, with some comments citing a $10,000–$12,000 range.
- Lee said Ethereum could enter a 10–15 year “super cycle,” with further price discovery beyond the $12,000–$15,000 zone.
- BitMine now holds about 2.15 million ETH after shifting to an Ethereum-focused treasury, which Lee says makes it the largest Ethereum treasury globally.
- Following the pivot, BitMine’s market capitalization rose from roughly $37.6 million in June to about $9.45 billion by late September, according to company disclosures.
- Lee argued that future use cases such as AI-driven token economies, robotics and government identity verification could build on Ethereum, even as the token trades below $4,200 after a recent pullback.
