Standard Chartered Bank strongly bullish on Bitcoin, setting a target price of $200,000 by the end of 2026!
This top-tier international bank has issued a powerful forecast in its latest research report. With rising U.S. sovereign credit risk and accelerating 'oil tokenization' trends, institutional demand for BTC is expected to grow exponentially, driven by these two core forces that will jointly support Bitcoin's push toward the $200,000 milestone.

Standard Chartered's outlook is not baseless, but rather aligned with current structural market shifts. On one hand, the U.S. dollar credit system faces challenges, making Bitcoin's role as a scarce digital asset as a hedge increasingly evident; on the other hand, capital linked to Gulf region oil is entering the market in large volumes through compliant channels such as spot ETFs, becoming a new force driving market liquidity.

Previously, institutional allocations relied primarily on traditional channels, but now with regulatory frameworks gradually becoming clearer, tools like spot ETFs have lowered entry barriers. Coupled with the explosive growth in the RWA sector leading to capital spillover effects, the scale of institutional inflows continues to expand. This forecast not only reflects traditional financial giants' recognition of crypto assets but also signals Bitcoin's transition from an alternative investment to a mainstream strategic asset, with a milestone price breakthrough expected by 2026.
