Standard Chartered expects BTC to reach $200,000 by the end of the year
Standard Chartered Bank has published a forecast: by the end of Q3 2025, Bitcoin will reach $135,000, and by Q4 — $200,000.
Analysts believe that the main factor is the steady inflows into spot ETFs, which have disrupted the usual logic of 4-year crypto cycles.
Instead of a decline in the fall, as would be expected in the 'classic model,' BTC continues to rise.
The long-term target is $500,000 by 2028.
