Uniswap Price Surges as Standard Chartered Sees $100 Target in 2030

The Uniswap price surge has reached its peak, driven by both everyday users and large holders. The recent activity is attributed to a research note from Standard Chartered that predicted UNI could reach $100 by 2030, a roughly 40-fold move from current levels.

According to Santiment, Uniswap's daily active addresses hit a four-month high, while whale transactions jumped to their highest level in seven months. This combination suggests the move is not driven by one cohort alone, indicating conviction rather than a thin spike.

The Standard Chartered forecast rests on the expectation that tokenized real-world assets will move onto blockchains at scale. The bank estimates the value of tokenized assets active in DeFi could grow 37-fold by 2030, pushing total value locked across DeFi toward $2.7 trillion from current $3.124B.

However, the technical picture remains cautious beneath the excitement. UNI's moving averages remain stacked bearishly, with price below the 50-day ($3.17), 100-day ($3.30), and 200-day ($4.03) lines.
