Market predictions after Bitcoin ETF approval by Standard Chartered display audacious foresight
Standard Chartered Bank is predicting a significant increase of $50 to $100 billion in Bitcoin investments after the approval of spot ETFs. The bank expects this influx to occur in 2024. This forecast is based on the expectation that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will approve more than a dozen spot Bitcoin ETF applications currently under consideration. Industry experts are also anticipating this approval, with many speculating that a decision will be made by Wednesday. Standard Chartered’s projections go beyond the financial implications and suggest that Bitcoin’s market value could experience a significant positive impact following the approval of ETFs. The bank is not the only one considering the potential effects of a spot Bitcoin ETF approval. The digital asset industry as a whole is enthusiastic, and stakeholders are closely monitoring the situation. Standard Chartered believes that Bitcoin could not only receive substantial investments but also reach a remarkable price milestone of $200,000 by the end of 2025, surpassing its previous all-time high.
