Standard Chartered initiated coverage of LINK with a $200 end-2030 target. Its case assumes onchain tokenized assets reach $4 trillion by the end of 2028 and that Chainlink fee generation scales by roughly 25 times.
Why it matters
The call reframes LINK as financial infrastructure—but depends on adoption, fees and reliability scaling together.
