Share:
Standard Chartered analyst Geoffrey Kendrick said the crypto winter is over, arguing Bitcoin’s drop to about $59,000 was the cycle bottom and should not be breached, with year-end targets of $100,000 for BTC and $4,000 for ETH; Bitcoin peaked at $126,000 in October 2025 before falling 53% and is trading near $63,484. He blamed the recent selloff on a SpaceX IPO liquidity drain and the Iran conflict and said renewed ETF inflows and falling oil prices are needed to fully confirm a market reversal, highlighting implications for crypto adoption and institutional flows.
