I built a simulator for Bitmine (NYSE-BMNR) $ETH share price I'm shocked to find that $BMNR can have a parabolic rally easily if Thomas (Tom) Lee (not drummer) FundstratDirect.com 's Ethereum thesis is correct If $ETH hits $20000, that's over $500 per share for $BMNR In the long run, $ETH can be over $40000 for sure imo

TOM LEE says Ethereum treasuries already generate around $500M a year in staking rewards.

Tom Lee on why institutional money HAS to buy $BMNR instead of $ETH directly. Large asset managers "can't buy ETH, the native token, because they would actually have to maintain a crypto wallet." But they can buy equities. Bitmine is in the Russell 1000 and trades on NYSE - "the only Ethereum large cap stock they could buy today." The equity investor universe is $240T. The native crypto investor universe is "a couple hundred billion." The numbers on where the big money flows is pretty clear.

.Justin Drake: "I don't see how ETH could not flip BTC" Justin is asked: What's Ethereum? Is it a settlement layer? A world computer? Monetary network? He responds: "For me, this hasn't changed for many years. Ethereum is the Internet of Value." "In order to be successful as the Internet of Value you need very good money at the center of it because that will be the substrate -- the economic bandwidth -- that will allow you to build a lot of services (e.g. loans, stablecoins)." "In some sense, the success of the platform and the success of the money are tied at the hip. This is why I think those who are pushing for ETH as money are really helping the platform and vice versa -- those who are helping the platform are helping with ETH the money." "One of my theses is that we'll have winner-takes-most platforms. There's only one Internet. There's only going to be one Internet of Value that captures 90-99% of all economic activity. And just for weird, path-dependent reasons, we have Bitcoin that is the largest money right now. But I think this is a highly-unstable equilibrium for multiple reasons. And I think the best candidate to win the Internet of Value is by far Ethereum." Fede’s intern 🥊 adds to this point, "I was never convinced there was a chance of [Ethereum flipping Bitcoin] to be honest. But I'm getting convinced there's a high probability -- you [Justin] have played a part in convincing me because of the issuance (declining block subsidy) and now the post-quantum. I do think there's a high chance that ETH becomes the dominant economic substrate in the long-term. I don't see how proof-of-work could work long-term." Justin echoes this: "Unless there's some catastrophic failure of Ethereum, I don't see how Ethereum could not flip Bitcoin."

The ETH thesis for Thomas (Tom) Lee (not drummer) FundstratDirect.com is simple. He's frontrunning ETH accumulation by the banks. "Ethereum is also the architecture that future banks will have. When goldman issues a stablecoin and JPMorgan doing it on Ethereum as Layer 1 blockchain they're going to want to secure it by staking Ethereum so, we're trying to get in front of that by creating an Ethereum treasury vehicle." Why is Tom Lee converting a bitcoin mining company to an ETH treasury and staking company? Simple. The banks will have stablecoins. The stablecoins will deploy on Ethereum. And so...the banks will acquire & stake ETH to secure their stablecoins. First commercial banks buy and stake. Then central banks buy and stake ETH. ETH becomes a world reserve asset. He's frontrunning the obvious ETH accumulation trend - just as he did with bitcoin many years ago. Bullish ETH.

Ethereum is officially transitioning to a monopoly L2s are finished, $ETH monopolizes smart contract rails In my mental framework, $ETH is a value index of smart contracts. It has network effect (most wallets), economies of scale (60% stablecoins are tokenized on ethereum) and proprietary technology (100% uptime). It's early days to talk about value capture because no token has really pumped because of utility the past 10 years, it's mostly the social value that creates fomo which created the pumps. Ethereum is the symbol the OG crypto anarchist social value, and vitalik.eth and the Ethereum community keep pushing for that. This community can't be replaced with Solana or BNB's community, which is a real moat that Ethereum has. One can argue Bitcoin has similar or more hardcore anarchist community, yes, this is why $BTC is number one and $ETH is number two. But over time I believe Ethereum's upside is far better because smart contracts enable it to scale its community via use cases/Apps like stablecoin and DAOs. Despite Thomas (Tom) Lee (not drummer) FundstratDirect.com buying 5% of $ETH that OG ethos of Ethereum is not going to change to the "enterprise chain" ethos because of the $ETH community and vitalik.eth. $ETH $BMNR
