Standard Chartered slashes Bitcoin & Ethereum targets - again.
The bank released its second major forecast cut in 3 months, warning that a "final capitulation" phase is coming before any real recovery.
Timeline of the shift:
- 1st Forecast (Dec 2025): They lowered their end-of-2026 BTC target from an ambitious $300K down to $150,000.
- 2nd Forecast (Feb 2026): Citing "brutal" market conditions and heavy ETF outflows, they slashed the 2026 target further to $100,000.
They warn that before we see green, we could see the following drop:
BTC: $50,000
ETH: $1,400
Let's see how it will all play out. #redpacket
