Standard Chartered Sees Uniswap Token Price Hitting $100 in Four Years

Standard Chartered Bank has released an ambitious price target for Uniswap's governance token UNI, predicting it could surge to $100 by the end of 2030. The forecast, which represents one of the more optimistic outlooks from a major financial institution regarding a decentralized finance (DeFi) asset, implies a roughly 35- to 40-fold increase over the next four and a half years.

The current trading price of UNI is around $2.70 to $2.80. Analysts at Standard Chartered, led by Geoffrey Kendrick, global head of digital assets research, position Uniswap as a foundational infrastructure layer in the evolving on-chain economy. They anticipate substantial growth in tokenized real-world assets migrating into decentralized platforms.

The bank's detailed price trajectory outlines gradual milestones: approximately $6.50 by the close of 2026, climbing to $20 in 2027, $40 in 2028, $65 in 2029, and finally $100 in 2030. This path is framed as potentially outperforming major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum over the same period.

Supporters point to recent integrations, including institutional products like BlackRock's BUIDL fund appearing on Uniswap's extended protocols and tokenized versions of major equities flowing through the platform. However, such long-term forecasts for UNI must be viewed with considerable caution due to its unanchored value and high volatility.
