Bitcoin (BTC) flirts with the peaks, but opinions differ. Standard Chartered hesitates on its 100,000 dollars, Cory Klippsten prepares the assault on 80,000 dollars, and Peter Schiff smirks. Between crazy predictions and skepticism, one question remains: will the queen of cryptos finally deliver on its promises?
In brief
- Standard Chartered revises its 100,000 dollars target for bitcoin by the end of 2026, judging it too conservative.
- Bitcoin at 76,844 dollars (+24% in one week) boosted by ETFs and short liquidations.
- 126,000 dollars in sight? The market already anticipates exceeding forecasts.

BTC boosted by short liquidations and the ETF recovery could even flirt with its historical record of 126,000 dollars. The irony is that in February the bank had revised this target downwards, from 150,000 dollars to 100,000 dollars.
Today, the market seems to mock these cautious moves. With bitcoin at 76,844 dollars and ETFs breaking inflow records, Kendrick admits:
