Standard Chartered sees LINK at $200 by 2030—a 25x jump.
Their forecast: RWA hits $4T by 2028, DeFi $2.7T by 2030. That fuels demand for Chainlink's oracle services. Standard Chartered's Geoff Kendrick believes Chainlink is uniquely positioned to provide the data and interoperability.
Our take: The RWA narrative is strong. But a 25x move for LINK depends on Chainlink keeping its near-monopoly. Chronicle, the second-largest oracle, already secures $7.36B vs. Chainlink's $34.4B. Competition, not just slow RWA adoption, is the real risk.
LINK last traded at $8.46. Reclaim $8.47, and the path to higher levels clears. Lose $8.31 (EMA50), and the trend breaks.
