#Strategy加仓BTC Can Ethereum really take off next? This question has been hotly debated in the community lately. BitMine Chairman Tom Lee recently made a bold move at the shareholder meeting: by 2026, Ethereum will fully explode and become the top trend in financial infrastructure.
Looking at the current market—$ETH has already broken through $3,300, and Standard Chartered Bank has even set an astonishing target price of $12,000. Tom Lee boldly predicts that the ETH/BTC exchange rate could surpass the all-time high of 2021. What’s the logic behind this? RWA tokenization is approaching $20 billion in scale, with traditional giants like BlackRock and Fidelity rushing into the space. Institutional accumulation of $BTC has never stopped.
BitMine’s own cards are also quite strong: holding 4.2 million ETH, with $1 billion in cash on hand. Pure staking yields 1.08 million ETH, earning nearly $100 million annually just from this. If calculated at $12,000 per ETH, BitMine’s pre-tax revenue could reach $2-2.2 billion, and the stock’s theoretical valuation could surge to $500.
The current situation is like this: institutional funds are flowing in continuously, staking yields are steadily earning, and asset tokenization has become a new hot spot. Mainstream coins like $BNB are also being driven by this cycle. But the question is—will this super cycle really arrive? Is now a good time to enter? That depends on your judgment of the fundamentals.

Tom Lee is making a big move again, predicting Ethereum's top in 2026? First, sell off his 4.2 million ETH, haha.
$12,000? Standard Chartered's slogan is really aggressive, but I'm afraid they're just setting up retail investors as the bagholders.
Institutional entry is real, but when will it be our turn to profit... that's really hard to say.
RWA is hot, but can it really support a $12,000 valuation? I'm a bit skeptical.
Staking and earning passively sounds great, but how are the risks calculated? Every time it's talked about, but in the end, we're caught.
Should I enter now? My advice is: don't go all in, take a steady approach.

nah tbh tom lee's been calling tops and bottoms for years lmao... back in my mining days we heard the same "this time it's different" pitch right before everything tanked. 12k eth? sure, if network congestion doesn't absolutely destroy txn throughput again. gas fees would be absolutely insane, tps bottleneck nightmare all over. anyway not touching this hype cycle
