Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee has addressed concerns regarding the company's Ethereum holdings, which have reportedly incurred a loss of $6.6 billion. According to Odaily, Lee stated on the X platform that Bitmine's primary objective is to track Ethereum prices and aim for superior performance over complete market cycles. He explained that during downturns in the crypto market, a decline in Ethereum prices is expected and the 'unrealized losses' in Bitmine's Ethereum holdings are not indicative of a system flaw but are part of the product design. Lee emphasized that some market perspectives misunderstand the operational logic of Ethereum's treasury, noting that similar criticisms would be directed at index ETFs experiencing losses during down cycles. He remains confident that Ethereum will continue to be a crucial component of the future financial infrastructure.
