Lee explained that his first Bitcoin recommendation came in 2017, when it traded near $1,000. Since then, Bitcoin’s price has gone through several major drops of up to 75%.

Lee said he sees Ethereum beginning a similar long-term rise and calls it the start of another “supercycle”.
Both Bitcoin and Ethereum have fallen from their recent highs, Bitcoin by about 25% and Ethereum by more than 35%. Lee said this kind of volatility often reflects short-term uncertainty rather than weakness.
He described these swings as part of the natural process investors must handle if they want to benefit from large future gains. He said:
