CoinVoice has recently learned from an exclusive interview with Mario Nawfal that Tom Lee, chairman of BitMine's board, stated, "The financial system will be restructured based on blockchain, reminiscent of the moment in 1971 when the dollar detached from the gold standard. Ethereum will be one of the main beneficiaries. I remain very optimistic about Bitcoin; it has the potential to reach $200,000 or even higher. As for Ethereum, I believe it has even greater upside potential because, with the development of blockchain and artificial intelligence, it possesses more possibilities. Therefore, we refer to Ethereum as the largest macro trade for the next 10 to 15 years. I believe Bitcoin has a potential doubling in price from now until the end of the year, while Ethereum has more than double the potential increase. However, in the long term, we have conducted some research and envisioned a five-year experiment, which predicts that Ethereum's final price will be around $60,000. Therefore, Ethereum has tremendous upside potential over the next 5 years." In mid-2017, Tom Lee publicly predicted for the first time that Bitcoin would reach $25,000 within five years (by 2022). In an interview with CNBC, he stated that Bitcoin is "eroding the demand for gold" and views it as "digital gold" with scarcity and value storage potential. At that time, traditional finance and some media mocked his prediction. [Original link]
