Standard Chartered Sees Chainlink as Key Player in $4T Tokenization Boom

Standard Chartered has initiated coverage of Chainlink's (LINK) token, forecasting a price of $200 by the end of 2030. This prediction is based on the bank's thesis that Chainlink will be a key winner in the next phase of institutional tokenization.

The report argues that more real-world assets moving on-chain will create rising demand for secure data, interoperability, and compliance infrastructure. Tokenized assets are expected to grow to $4 trillion by 2028, from about $340 billion today.

Chainlink is already providing secure on-chain connections for about 70% of DeFi markets globally, with more than $32 trillion in transaction value enabled to date.
