Chainlink Tied to Tokenization Growth as $200 Value Target Looms

Chainlink's potential to reach $200 in value is tied to the growth of tokenized assets, which Standard Chartered Bank estimates will expand from around $340 billion to $4 trillion by 2028. As this market grows, more assets will require reliable data and cross-chain connectivity, creating a larger addressable market for Chainlink.

Standard Chartered argues that rising demand could significantly boost LINK's valuation, with some projections suggesting a path toward $200. However, the implied 25-fold increase requires more than just rising tokenization volumes; Chainlink must convert greater infrastructure use into higher fees and sustained LINK demand.

The bank's $200 target ultimately depends on whether ecosystem growth translates into measurable value for the token itself. Currently, Chainlink has secured $48.32 billion in activity, while cumulative transaction value enabled exceeds $33 trillion.
