$19B market crash paves way for Bitcoin’s rise to $200K: Standard Chartered

The $19 billion market crash may be a buying opportunity as dust settles in the coming weeks, Standard Chartered’s Geoff Kendrick told Cointelegraph in an exclusive interview.

Bitcoin may still be on track to reach $200,000 by the end of the year, even after a record $19 billion market liquidation and renewed tariff threats from US President Donald Trump, according to Standard Chartered’s global head of digital assets research, Geoff Kendrick.

The crypto market experienced a record $19 billion liquidation event on the weekend of Oct. 10, which caused Bitcoin’s (BTC) price to dip to a four-month low of $104,000 by Friday, Cointelegraph reported at the time.
