In his talk at Binance Blockchain Week 2025, FundStrat’s Tom Lee explained why he thinks crypto prices have bottomed. He mentioned the risk that the emergence of quantum computing may have on cryptocurrencies. He also talked about people fearing a sell-off from industry whales like Microstrategy selling off their bitcoin. Another is that people may be more interested in Artificial Intelligence assets. All these may contribute to the dip, but Tom spent the most time talking about the Bitcoin 4-year cycle and why Bitcoin may not follow a 4-year cycle this time. His full talk is posted free to view on YouTube:
When Tom Lee did his talk, Bitcoin was trading between $86,000 and $93,000, down $30,000-$37,000 from its all-time high. He did not set an exact price on where he thinks the price will bottom. This gives us and you, the readers, a range to speculate what he actually meant by bottom. For the sake of prediction tracking, we will give Tom’s claim a $16,000 wiggle room and say that BTC will bottom between the price when the claim was made and $70,000 per coin.
We will continue to track this claim post an update as the price of BTC goes up, down, or holds. Keep yourself up-to-date with the latest predictions in the crypto world by joining the Sibyl Codex Newsletter.
