So while Tom Lee the perma bull goes on CNBC and pumps crypto there is internal conflict ... what else is new lol... Tom Lee Lee and CNBC the biggest crypto whores in this cycle lol
Tom Lee publicly predicts Bitcoin (BTC) will reach up to $200,000 by early 2026 and potentially $250,000 by the end of 2026, driven by institutional adoption. However, a leaked internal Fundstrat report presents a more cautious short-term outlook for early 2026, warning of a potential "meaningful drawdown".
Public vs. Internal Outlook for Early 2026
There appears to be a notable difference between Tom Lee's generally bullish public statements and a circulating internal document from Fundstrat Global Advisors.
Tom Lee's Public Stance:
Lee, a well-known market "perma-bull" and the head of research at Fundstrat, has expressed high optimism, suggesting that current prices for Ethereum are "grossly undervalued". His public forecasts are:
- BTC: $150,000 to $200,000 by early 2026, and potentially up to $250,000 by year-end.
- ETH: Could exceed $20,000 within the next year based on an expected "Supercycle" driven by tokenization.
Fundstrat's Internal Report (Circulating, unconfirmed authenticity):A report shared internally with clients, and not publicly released, describes the potential for a significant correction in the first half of 2026 due to macro pressures and policy uncertainty. The report frames this as a "tactical reset" and a potential buying opportunity, but warns of near-term downside. The downside targets mentioned in the circulating report are:BTC: $60,000–$65,000.ETH: $1,800–$2,000.SOL: $50–$75. |
