Standard Chartered Bank: Tres razones para impulsar el BTC a $200,000 este año, Ballena compra una gran cantidad de opciones de compra de BTC durante la corrección

Geoff Kendrick, Global Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered, once again reiterated his prediction that BTC will reach a new high of $200,000 this year and surge to $500,000 by the end of Trump's term. Despite the recent setback in the Bitcoin market due to the trade war initiated by President Trump, which caused BTC to drop from $99,000 to a low of $91,000, Standard Chartered Bank maintains a positive view on BTC. In a recent report, Geoff Kendrick reaffirmed his prediction that BTC will reach $200,000 this year and will continue to increase by $100,000 annually, reaching $500,000 by the end of Trump's term. Kendrick attributes the continuous rise of BTC to the friendly regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies under the Trump administration and the expansion of investment channels for this asset. Specifically, the reasons include: the listing of Bitcoin ETF, which has attracted billions of dollars in net inflows since its approval by the U.S. SEC in January last year, due to the expansion of investment channels; the Financial Accounting Standards Board has taken an important step in allowing Bitcoin to be recorded on corporate balance sheets at fair market value; the Trump administration has expressed the intention to establish Bitcoin reserves. Additionally, in terms of the short-term trend of BTC, cryptocurrency analysts cite data from CryptoQuant to point out that the funding rate for BTC has turned negative again, which has occurred seven times in the past year and has always been followed by a strong bullish momentum. Furthermore, CryptoQuant recently reported that Whale accumulation addresses have acquired over 30,000 BTC, indicating OTC buying. Analyst Adam from Opciones Greeks.live also stated that despite the recent market downturn, Whales have been buying a large amount of bullish Opciones, suggesting an overall optimistic market sentiment. The market is clearly divided, with BTC being sought after by both insiders and outsiders, while altcoins represented by ETH have suffered significant losses. However, data from Opciones shows that the Skew of BTC and ETH remains positive, and Whales are buying bullish Opciones during the downturn, indicating a positive market outlook. Although the market's confidence has been temporarily shaken by the downturn, the future of cryptocurrencies is promising.
