Yet another legacy bank is telling us what to expect from crypto

By LeftFooted | bitcoinea | 6 Jul 2025


Standard Charterd, which is a bank even though I guess some people may remember it as Liverpool FC's main sponsor, is now telling us what's going to happen with crypto.


How nice.


How convenient.


Anyway, according to Standard Chartered, Bitcoin can hit a new ATH of $135,000 in Q3.


Also according to Standard Chartered, BTC will break $200,000 by the end of the year.


Sure.


Whatever works for them.


But wait, because also also also, Standard Chartered said 'Bitcoin halving cycle is dead', meaning it won't really impact the price anymore.


Not in the way we expect it to anyway. Interesting take.


I appreciate Standard's input, and I hope they're right, but I just find it hilarious that all legacy players that historically hated crypto are now preaching about it.


Oh how the tables have turned.


Oh how the turns have tabled.
