Geoff Kendrick, Global Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered Bank, suggests that buying Ethereum and Bitmine shares before the weekend could be advantageous. Despite recent declines, Ethereum's momentum remains strong, bolstered by the Fusaka upgrade in December, which has led to record transaction volumes on the network. Bitmine, the largest corporate holder of Ethereum, continues to accumulate the cryptocurrency, further supporting its value. Kendrick also highlights favorable macroeconomic conditions, including reduced Greenland-related tariff risks, a recovery in the Japanese bond market, and speculation that Rick Rieder of BlackRock might become the next Federal Reserve Chairman. These factors contribute to a positive outlook for risk assets, making Ethereum and Bitmine attractive investments with a good risk-reward ratio.
