We asked several research firms to give us “replacement” value (of Wall Street) to value ETH
– this is for illustrative purposes only
– implied value for ETH is $60,000
– ETH currently ~$3,800 pic.twitter.com/mXa5uCZukv— Bitmine BMNR (@BitMNR) July 28, 2025
The presentation was based on a bullish theory, predicting Ethereum’s value could soar to $60,000 per token. “Many on Wall Street say Ethereum is the ‘biggest macro trade over the next decade,’” the firm stated, citing rapid adoption of stablecoins and asset tokenization.
BitMine explained that over 60% of stablecoins are hosted on the Ethereum network, which could see further inflows as tokenized assets gain traction among institutions.
The presentation stated that Ethereum’s “replacement value” to Wall Street suggests a consensus valuation of $60,000 per ETH. During the presentation, Lee confirmed that BitMine holds 600,000 ETH, currently valued at over $2.2 billion.
Corporate Demand on the Rise
David Grider, a partner at venture firm Finality Capital, also displayed bullish sentiment on X. He compared the rise of Ether treasury companies to the MicroStrategy-Bitcoin effect, suggesting that similar corporate accumulation could drive ETH prices even higher.
9/ While we think BMNR has proven to be the current market leader due to @fundstrat and teams’ strong execution, we think the Ethereum Treasury Co. boom overall should bode well for $ETH flows and price action similar to the impact @MicroStrategy had on $BTC over recent years -…

Finality Capital disclosed its own position in BitMine. Other corporate ETH holders include SharpLink Gaming, Bit Digital, and Blockchain Technology Consensus Solutions.
Price Aligns with Demand
At press time, ETH is trading around $3,817, down by around 2.5% in the past day, attempting to break out of its short-term consolidation phase for the third time in July.
Each previous breakout this month resulted in a weekly price jump: 25% and 30%, respectively. Crypto analyst ZYN believes a similar move could push ETH above $4,300 by the end of this week.

ETH saw the largest rise in OI, reflecting renewed investor confidence and bullish momentum. Analysis shows that a retest of $4,000 and new all-time highs are quite likely in the upcoming weeks, making ETH one of the best crypto to buy in the current market scenarios.
