Standard Chartered has raised its bitcoin price target to $500,000 by 2028, citing increased investor access and diminishing volatility.
The bank’s previous bitcoin price target was $100,000 by the end of 2023.
The new target is based on a two-asset portfolio optimization model, which includes bitcoin and gold.
The model shows that bitcoin’s optimal allocation in the portfolio should increase over time, as the cryptocurrency becomes less volatile and more investors gain access to it.
Standard Chartered now expects bitcoin to hit $200,000 by the end of this year, $300,000 by 2026 and $400,000 by 2027.
Bitcoin is currently trading around $98,000, and the bitcoin-gold ratio has recently hit its lowest level since mid-November as the precious metal surged amid ongoing concerns of a U.S.-China trade war and increased Chinese demand.
