Bitcoin is no longer being discussed only by crypto traders and retail bulls. Some of the world\u2019s biggest banks are now attaching six-figure targets to the leading cryptocurrency, and this is a major change in how Wall Street<\/a> is looking at Bitcoin\u2019s next cycle. Major banks including Citi, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, Standard Chartered, and TD Cowen are all pointing to a future where the BTC price trades well above current levels, with several projections clustered between $140,000 and $200,000.<\/p>\n

Banks And Their 6-Figure Predictions For Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

Not long ago, the words \u201cfraud\u201d and \u201cponzi scheme\u201d were the most popular way Wall Street described Bitcoin. The very institutions now projecting six-figure price targets spent years trying to talk investors out of the asset entirely.\u00a0The most interesting BTC price projection is from Citi. Citi projected a base case<\/a> of $143,000 for BTC, with its bull case reaching as high as $189,000. The forecast is tied to stronger institutional demand and the idea that Bitcoin can continue absorbing capital through ETFs.<\/p>\n

JPMorgan\u2019s outlook is similarly bullish, with analysts at the bank pointing to a $170,000 scenario based on Bitcoin\u2019s valuation relative to gold. The bank\u2019s model suggests BTC still has room to close the gap with gold as a store-of-value asset, especially if there\u2019s continued ETF demand.<\/p>\n

Goldman Sachs has highlighted its view as a scenario, and the number is also worth noting. Goldman\u2019s digital assets team sees potential for Bitcoin to approach<\/a> $200,000 in 2026.<\/p>\n

Standard Chartered has taken the longest view of the group. The bank revised its 2026 year-end target to approximately $100,000, citing reduced buying from digital asset treasury companies and slowing ETF inflows. However, Standard Chartered still maintains a long-term projection of $500,000 by 2030. TD Cowen rounds out the group with a target of $140,000, which is the lowest prediction from the bunch.<\/p>\n

Big Banks Moving Into BTC?<\/h2>\n

The contrast between Wall Street\u2019s past posture and its current research output is interesting, mostly with JPMorgan. Back in September 2017, when Bitcoin was trading around $4,200, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon called the cryptocurrency <\/a>a fraud at an investor conference, compared it to tulip bulbs, and said he would fire in a second any trader caught dealing in it.<\/p>\n

However, things have changed now, and reports indicate<\/a> that JPMorgan Chase & Co. is in the process of offering cryptocurrency trading services to institutional clients.\u00a0Goldman Sachs also disclosed in a regulatory filing that it owns around $1 billion worth of Bitcoin, with CEO David Solomon also confirming that<\/a> he personally owns a small amount of the asset.<\/p>\n

Citi, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, and Goldman Sachs have all announced new<\/a> Bitcoin-related products over the past three months, spanning custody, trading, ETF filings, and direct purchases.\u00a0The banks that once called BTC a fraud are now modeling its path to $200,000. According to <\/a>crypto analyst Crypto Patel, that\u2019s not adoption. That\u2019s capitulation.<\/p>\n
