Standard Chartered Forecasts Bitcoin to Hit $135K in Q3, $200K by Year-End 🚀

Global bank Standard Chartered predicts that Bitcoin will surge to $135,000 by the end of Q3 2025 and potentially reach $200,000 by year-end, citing strong ETF inflows and institutional treasury buying as key drivers. The bank also notes that this cycle deviates from past halving patterns—where BTC typically declined 18 months after halving—because of persistent investor demand. Though some short-term volatility is expected, technical indicators show a bullish trend heading into late 2025.
