Standard Chartered: Bitcoin $100K Year-End Target May Be Too Low

The notable signal here is a bank publicly flagging its own published target as potentially too conservative — a rare move that implies its internal view shifted faster than its formal forecasts. That matters less for the specific level than for what it says about how institutional desks are positioning around the asset class. Whether other sell-side houses revise similarly, or whether this stays an outlier call, is the open question worth tracking.
