Early-year BTC call. According to CoinDesk, at the start of 2025 Lee set a year-end Bitcoin target as high as
$250,000. In July–August, as ETH rallied toward prior highs, he said ETH could reach
$12,000–
$15,000 by end-2025, calling it one of the biggest macro opportunities of the next 10–15 years.
August on CNBC. Lee argued Ethereum was entering a pivotal inflection similar to Bitcoin’s 2017. In 2017, he said, Bitcoin rose from under
$1,000 to
$120,000 on the “digital gold” narrative, a 120× move. With the GENIUS Act giving a green light to stablecoins—creating a “ChatGPT moment” for crypto—and with smart-contract advantages that Bitcoin lacks, he predicted this could be Ethereum’s “2017 moment,” with price rising from about
$3,700 to
$30,000 or higher.
Supercycle rhetoric. Into the autumn, Lee maintained an extremely bullish stance. In November 2025 he said, “we believe ETH is entering a supercycle akin to Bitcoin’s 2017–2021,” implying scope to replicate Bitcoin’s multi-year hundred-fold trajectory.
Dubai remarks. At Binance Blockchain Week in early December 2025, Lee again proclaimed a bull market, saying Bitcoin could surge to
$250,000 “within months,” and that Ethereum around
$3,000 at the time was “severely undervalued.”
ETH/BTC ratio framework. He argued that if ETH/BTC reverted to its eight-year average (~0.07), ETH would be about
$12,000; if it returned to the 2021 relative high (~0.16), ETH could reach ~
$22,000; and in an extreme case with the ratio at 0.25, Ethereum’s theoretical valuation could exceed
$60,000.
