Tom Lee, chairman of BitMine, has indicated potential market shifts in risk assets ahead of President Donald Trump's announcement scheduled for 3:00 PM EST on October 16. Lee highlighted that Trump's previous tariff rhetoric led to a $20 billion loss in the crypto market. A crypto whale reportedly profited by shorting Bitcoin and Ethereum before Trump's October 10 post and is now taking long positions ahead of the new announcement. Lee, who joined BitMine in June, also commented on the Digital Asset Treasury market, suggesting it may be nearing saturation. He remains optimistic about Ethereum and forecasts Bitcoin could reach $200,000-$250,000 and Ethereum $10,000-$12,000 by the end of 2025.
