Ethereum Treasury Company Chairman Tom Lee stated that high oil prices may not necessarily be negative for the U.S. economy, as some states like Texas, New York, and Florida mitigate the impact through their respective characteristics. He pointed out that "crisis" contains both opportunities and risks, but investors often overlook the latter.

ME News Report, April 1st (UTC+8), Ethereum Treasury Company Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee stated on the X platform that, from the perspective of major regional economic structures in the United States, high oil prices are not an absolute negative for the overall economy. Texas benefits from the energy industry, New York relies on public transportation which reduces sensitivity to oil prices, and Florida has shorter commuting distances, all of which buffer the upward pressure on oil prices to some extent. Additionally, Lee emphasized that a “crisis” itself contains both “danger and opportunity,” but most investors tend to focus only on risks and overlook potential opportunities. (Source: ODAILY)
