Bank forecasts Bitcoin to hit $135K by Q3 due to ETF inflows.
Corporate demand could push BTC to $200K by year-end.
Brace for short-term volatility between late Q3 and early Q4.
A major boost in Bitcoin demand is expected from increasing inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs. As investors seek regulated exposure, Standard Chartered predicts that these inflows could drive Bitcoin up to $135,000 in the third quarter. This aligns with the growing appetite for institutional crypto investment and increased trust in ETFs.
Corporate Adoption Accelerating Growth
Beyond ETFs, Standard Chartered highlights growing interest from corporate treasuries and institutional buyers. These players add substantial demand on top of retail and ETF inflows. The bank’s analysis suggests this combined wave could propel Bitcoin even higher, possibly reaching $200,000 by the end of the year.
Volatility Risk in Late Q3–Early Q4
Despite the bullish pulse, the forecast notes potential turbulence. Standard Chartered cautions that short-term volatility between late Q3 and early Q4 could pose risks. This signals possible pullbacks or price swings before the next leg up unfolds.
