Ethereum Set to Outperform Bitcoin: Tom Lee

Tom Lee, co-founder of Fundstrat Global Advisors and chairman of Bitmain's board, predicts Ethereum will outperform Bitcoin in the coming years due to its utility value in tokenization and artificial intelligence (AI).

In an interview, Lee cited the ETH/BTC ratio's recent rise to 0.02994 as a positive signal that the market is recognizing Ethereum's growing utility.

Ethereum's expanding use cases beyond serving as a medium of value transfer are driven by tokenization, with over $12 billion in U.S. Treasury products already represented on its blockchain.

Lee believes agentic AI could leverage Ethereum's infrastructure for transparent transactions and payment settlement, further driving demand for the asset.
