Tom Lee: Why Ethereum Could Become a $5 Trillion Network
On July 7, 2026, Tom Lee @fundstrat stated in an interview with the New Era Finance Podcast that at its current valuation of around $300 billion, Ethereum is grossly undervalued. As traditional assets like stocks and real estate gradually become composable, monetized, and digitized, running on Ethereum and other blockchains, he believes Ethereum could easily become a $1 trillion to $5 trillion network in the next few years.
Regarding how Ethereum captures value, Tom Lee compared it to land; if everything happens on Ethereum, then Ethereum is equivalent to the land of the digital world, making it the core asset that should appreciate over time.

Tom Lee thinks 2027 could deliver "the biggest stock market gains in our lifetime."
Not a vibe. He walked me through the actual mechanism:
Right now the market punishes every company spending on AI — the capex shows up as cost, not return. His call is that this flips. "2027 is my best guess is the year. Corporate profit margins dramatically expand because of AI."
He uses his own firm as the proof: "we use a lot of AI and bots, and we're growing without having to hire people." When your highest cost is people, and your revenue still climbs, that's margin expansion.
Then the second leg: "AI, if it's productive, is disinflationary."
Falling costs mean central banks can ease. Dovish policy plus real profit growth is how you get higher earnings and higher multiples at the same time.
That's his call, not mine — but I like that it's mechanical, not hopeful. Right now the market is pricing AI as an expense. He's arguing 2027 is when it shows up as profit.
Six months ago Ethereum was almost $5,000. Today it's under $2,000. When I put that to Tom Lee in Paris, his response was: "Has anything really changed?"
Tom Lee (@fundstrat) is one of Wall Street's most-followed forecasters. While the market wrote Ethereum off, he made the case to me that it's one of the most mispriced assets in the world right now.
His framing stuck with me. Gold is worth ~$22 trillion. The stock market over $100 trillion. Real estate ~$300 trillion. And to make those assets composable and move them on-chain, he argues, you run them on Ethereum, which sits at a fraction of that. "If Ethereum is at 300 billion, it's grossly undervalued."
We cover:
- Why he calls this "crypto spring", fundamentals stronger than ever while price lags
- Why tokenization is "not even a question," and what happens when Wall Street actually moves on-chain
- Why AI agents carrying wallets and making payments is, in his words, "pretty close to 100%" within three years
- Why he can see Ethereum as a 1, 2, or even $5 trillion network "in the next few years"
- What most investors are missing at exactly the wrong moment
That's his call, not mine, but it's one of the clearest bull cases I've heard on why the biggest move may still be ahead.

Did you know Taostats started as a spreadsheet that helped early Bittensor investors track the incentive layer?
Listen to Mog (@mogmachine), founder of @taostats, tell the story of how he stumbled onto Bittensor, and how Taostats grew from a simple spreadsheet into the top block explorer in the network. 👇

every industry leader I've asked in the last 6 months has named the same meta to chase
@Jennasis just made it unanimous
full Between Us episode with the 5x founder now inside CoinFund is live, and she doesn't hold back
"most VCs aren't qualified to give founders advice" (her words, said from years of industry experience)
capital allocation, reading decks, business models that dont exist and technical jargon - conceptually, ai could take over all of these areas, but will it?
has the industry made anyhting valueable enough for you want to want to pay to be a member of? Jenna brought an alternative view that crypto has worked the other way, with airdrops and free money leading to nil retention and an all too familar result
Chapters:
00:09 The privilege of failure
01:11 Will AI agents replace capital allocators?
02:54 Is crypto drunk on airdrops?
05:28 Why most VCs aren't qualified to give advice
07:48 The bifurcation of venture capital
10:38 Privacy and freedom in 2036

wdyt on the airdrop point, necessary bootstrapping or free money that bought us nothing

“For me, the breakthrough moment is around global access.”
At @proofoftalk 2026, @XenBH of @base told @2084Richardson that anyone with a phone can now access dollars through USDC.
He says the same is coming for stocks, bonds, commodities, and more.
