Fundstrat Research Head Tom Lee predicts that Ethereum (ETH) will recover quickly after recent declines. He noted that ETH, which has lost more than 50% value eight times since 2018, has always bottomed out in a V-shape and recovered at the same speed each time. Speaking at a conference in Hong Kong, Lee emphasized that ETH is close to the bottom level and offers investors an ETH detailed analysis opportunity. He added that the $1,890 level pointed out by BitMine analyst Tom DeMark could be a perfect bottom.

This situation significantly restricts supply.
Institutional Inflows and ETF Flows Support ETH
Goldman Sachs’ $1 billion ETH purchase, Interactive Brokers’ 24/7 ETH futures launch, and $57 million net inflow to ETH ETFs on February 9, are increasing institutional demand. These developments strengthen Tom Lee’s recovery thesis and reinforce the buying opportunity from bottom levels.
