Uniswap Token Could Rise 40x by 2030, Standard Chartered Forecasts

Standard Chartered, a major bank, has forecast that tokenized assets on-chain could grow to $4 trillion by end-2028 from $340 billion today. The bank's head of digital assets research, Geoffrey Kendrick, also estimates that the amount of assets locked in DeFi will increase 37 times by the end of 2030.

Kendrick believes that Uniswap (UNI) is well-positioned to benefit from this growth due to its role as an infrastructure layer for decentralized trading. He notes that Uniswap's infrastructure, longevity, and brand recognition make it a key player in the DeFi space.

The bank expects UNI to rise to $6.50 in 2026, $20 in 2027, $40 in 2028, $65 in 2029, and $100 in 2030, implying a 40-fold increase from its current price of around $2.50.
