According to CNBC, Bitcoin fell below $70,000 in recent weeks after rising above $82,000 earlier in the year. Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee, speaking on Squawk Box, attributed the decline to investors "angrily withdrawing from the market" rather than a collapse of the crypto bullish thesis, describing the sell-off as a classic market bottom typical of crypto cycles.
Lee stated that his long-term outlook for Bitcoin and Ethereum remains unchanged, viewing both as key components of the future financial system amid artificial intelligence development. "My bullish thesis for Bitcoin and Ethereum remains absolutely unchanged. BTC and ETH truly are the future of money," Lee said.
