Tom Lee, known as the 'Eternal Crypto Bull,' publicly predicts that Bitcoin and Ethereum will reach their all-time highs by January 2026. However, a leaked internal report from Fundstrat tells a different story:
1. The report expects a 'deep pullback' in early 2026 with:
- A drop $BTC to $60,000-65,000
- A decline $ETH to $1,800-2,000
- Retracement $SOL to $50-75
2. Ki Young Ju, the CEO of CryptoQuant, explains this contradiction: sell-side analysts prioritize maintaining trading interest at the expense of accurate predictions.
3. Potential catalysts for the decline include:
- Escalating tariff disputes during Trump's second year
- Slowing returns on AI investments
4. It is interesting that Fundstrat sees this as a "re-entry opportunity" for institutions with cash reserves, not the beginning of a bear market.
This reveals a potential disconnect between the optimistic public statements directed at retail investors and the private institutional guidance. Always keep multiple perspectives in mind when planning your crypto strategy! 🧐
