Standard Chartered has taken a much more aggressive stance on Ethereum, hiking its 2025 price target by a hefty 87.5% to $7,500. The bank says a lot has changed since its earlier $4,000 projection back in March — namely, a surge in institutional buying and a powerful new stablecoin narrative.

The revised forecast puts $ETH well past its 2021 all-time high of $4,891, with the bank expecting it to close the year roughly 59% above current levels near $4,707. Geoff Kendrick, head of digital assets research, says the combination of tighter supply and stronger demand makes the setup “decidedly bullish.”#ETH5kNext? #ETHTreasuryStrategy #ETHRally
