‘The Best Years Are Definitely Ahead’ – Fundstrat’s Tom Lee Says Fundamentals Point to Long-Term Bullishness for Bitcoin and Crypto

16-Dec-2025 The Daily Hodl

Fundstrat’s Tom Lee believes basic market dynamics favor crypto bullishness despite recent price woes.

In a new interview with CNBC, Lee predicts that crypto’s “best years are still definitely ahead.”

“Today, there are only four million Bitcoin wallets with $10,000 in them. There are 900 million IRA and brokerage accounts globally that have $10,000, so that’s 200 times larger a market.” 

Lee thinks crypto’s 2025 story is still positive despite some hiccups and “uncertain” price levels.

“I think that there have been some concerns about quantum, and then there was that huge deleveraging event on October 10th, but the crypto fundamental story is exiting on a really high note this year.

The US government passed legislation and regulations favorable for crypto, and we know Wall Street has expressed a lot of interest in building products on the blockchain.”

Lee’s bullishness is also reflected in his corporate decisions. The Fundstrat executive’s digital asset treasury company, BitMine Immersion (BMNR), added 102,259 Ethereum (ETH) to its holdings in the past week.

BitMine, the largest ETH treasury vehicle in the world, holds more than $11.7 billion worth of Ethereum at time of writing.

Lee says on CNBC that Bitmine “is becoming more of a bridge to Wall Street” with investments in decentralized finance (DeFi) and financial infrastructure.
