๐ธ Why are institutions buying $ETH?
Tom Lee, known for pivoting his BTC mining company into an ETH staking firm, shared a bold vision on U.S. financial TV. He claims banks will soon begin buying $ETH en masse โ not for speculation, but to secure their own stablecoins.
๐ Since most stablecoins are being issued on Ethereum, banks will need to protect the chain that secures them. Bank of America already announced itโs ready to launch its stablecoin once U.S. regulations are clear.
๐ง One theory suggests the value protected by a blockchain shouldnโt exceed the cost to attack it โ meaning the more stablecoins on Ethereum, the more $ETH must be bought to secure it.
Lee is front-running what he sees as inevitable: banks accumulating $ETH to defend their own interests. Visionary or wishful thinking? Time will tell.
