Standard Chartered’s latest research notes<\/a> offer a very bullish outlook for the major digital assets, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), by the end of 2024 and beyond. The bank’s analysts project Bitcoin could reach $150,000, while Ethereum could hit the $8,000 mark.<\/p>\n

These projections come amidst a backdrop of significant developments in the crypto space, including the launch of Bitcoin spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and Ethereum’s recent Dencun upgrade.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin’s Path To $150,000<\/h2>\n

The bank’s research delves deep into the factors propelling Bitcoin’s potential surge to $150,000 by year-end. Central to this projection is the influence of Bitcoin spot ETFs, which, since their launch on January 11<\/a>, have seen rapid inflows exceeding increases in open interest.<\/p>\n

According to the bank, this suggests a more robust and sustainable positioning for Bitcoin, distinct from previous speculative peaks. “Rapid inflows to the new Bitcoin (BTC) spot ETFs have dominated […] Most of the inflows are likely to be sticky<\/a> pension-type flows,” Geoff Kendrick and Suki Cooper elucidate, highlighting the newfound stability in Bitcoin investment trends.<\/p>\n

Three pivotal analyses form the cornerstone of Standard Chartered’s Bitcoin valuation:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Gold Analogy:<\/strong> Drawing parallels with the gold market’s response<\/a> to the introduction of US gold ETFs, the bank estimates Bitcoin could rise to the $200,000 level, marking a 4.3x increase from its pre-ETF price.<\/li>\n
  2. Two-Asset Optimization:<\/strong> By optimizing a portfolio with 80% gold and 20% Bitcoin at current gold prices, the analysis suggests a Bitcoin level around $190,000.<\/li>\n
  3. ETF Inflows Correlation:<\/strong> Linear extrapolation based on the correlation between ETF inflows and Bitcoin price points to a possible $250,000 level, assuming total ETF inflows around the bank’s midpoint estimate of $75 billion.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Standard Chartered notes that these three measures suggest \u201cthat $200,000 is the ‘correct’ end-2025 price level for BTC, […] and that it is likely to be the new midpoint for a sideways trading range at that time.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Related Reading: Bernstein Analysts Convinced Bitcoin Is Headed For $150,000, Here\u2019s Why<\/a><\/div>\n

    Further the research notes that an \u201covershoot to $250,000 is likely at some point in 2025 if ETF inflows continue apace and\/or reserve managers buy BTC.\u201d Previously, the bank only predicted<\/a> a Bitcoin price of $100,000 by the end of 2024.<\/p>\n

    Ethereum’s Road To $8,000<\/h2>\n

    Ethereum’s expected climb to $8,000 by the end of 2024 is anchored in two transformative developments: the Dencun upgrade and the expected approval of ETH spot ETFs. The recent Dencun upgrade<\/a>, by significantly lowering transaction costs on layer 2 blockchains, enhances Ethereum’s competitive edge.<\/p>\n

    “Ethereum (ETH) has just undergone the \u2018Dencun\u2019 upgrade, which dramatically lowers the cost of transactions […] making ETH more competitive,” the research notes.<\/p>\n

    The forecast also hinges on the anticipation of US SEC approval for ETH ETFs by May 23, a decision poised to catalyze substantial inflows into Ethereum. Drawing from the Bitcoin ETF experience, Standard Chartered expects similar enthusiasm for Ethereum, with projected inflows of 2.39-9.15 million ETH (equivalent to roughly $15-45 billion).<\/p>\n

    This substantial capital infusion is seen as a crucial lever for Ethereum’s price surge. “We expect significant ETF-driven inflows to ETH […] This could drive ETH to the $8,000 level by end-2024,” the bank elaborates, underscoring the parallel potential for growth akin to Bitcoin’s trajectory.<\/p>\n

    The Prognosis For 2025 And Beyond<\/h3>\n

    Looking further ahead, Standard Chartered ventures into the terrain of 2025 predictions, where the bank sees the ETH-to-BTC price ratio ascending back to the 7% level, a hallmark of the 2021-22 period.<\/p>\n

    This adjustment forecasts an Ethereum price of $14,000 by the end of 2025, given the projected Bitcoin level of $200,000. Such a scenario underscores the bank’s optimism about the enduring value proposition and growth potential of these leading digital assets in the medium term.<\/p>\n

    At press time, BTC traded at $68,401.<\/p>\n

Through his extensive work with wncen.com and Bitcoinist.com, Jake has become a trusted voice in the crypto community, guiding newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike towards a deeper understanding of this dynamic field. His mission is simple yet profound: to demystify Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and make them accessible to everyone. With a professional career in the Bitcoin and crypto scene that began right after graduating with a degree in Information Systems in 2017, Jake has immersed himself in the industry. Jake joined the NewsBTC Group in late 2022. His educational background provides him with the technical prowess and analytical skills necessary to dissect complex topics and present them in an understandable format. Whether you are a casual reader curious about Bitcoin or an investor seeking to navigate the latest market trends, Jake\u2019s insights offer valuable perspectives that bridge the gap between complex technology and everyday usage. Jake is not just a reporter on technological trends; he is a firm believer in the transformative potential of Bitcoin over traditional fiat currencies. To him, the current financial system is on the brink of chaos, propelled by unchecked government actions and flawed Keynesian economic policies. Drawing from the principles of the Austrian school of economics, Jake views Bitcoin not merely as a digital asset but as a crucial step towards rectifying a failing monetary system. His libertarian views reinforce his stance that just as the church was separated from the state, so too should money be freed from governmental control. For Jake, Bitcoin represents more than just an investment; it's a peaceful revolution. He envisions a future where Bitcoin fosters a sustainable and responsible financial framework for generations to come. His advocacy is not about opposition but about evolution, about laying the groundwork for a system that prioritizes transparency and equity over secrecy and inequality. As a journalist, Jake\u2019s articles are crafted with the precision of a scholar and the passion of a true believer. He provides not only news but also thoughtful analysis that connects the dots between daily developments and larger economic theories. His work is a beacon for those lost in the technical jargon often associated with crypto discussions, illuminating the practical implications and benefits of these technologies. In summary, Jake Simmons is not just reporting on a revolution; he wants to be part of it, fully committed to enhancing public understanding and adoption of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. His work is more than just a collection of articles; it\u2019s a resource, a guide, and a companion for anyone ready to explore the potential of this digital frontier. Whether you are taking your first steps into crypto or are a veteran looking to stay on top of the latest trends, Jake\u2019s insights provide clarity and foresight in an often unpredictable industry.
