Standard Chartered Analyst: Bitcoin Will Surge $20,000 if US Defaults on Debt
On May 4, TuoniaoX.com reported that Standard Chartered Bank's Head of FX Research Jeff Kendrick recently stated that Bitcoin's price could rise by $20,000 if the US defaults. According to Kendrick, while Bitcoin might surge during a US default, other cryptocurrencies like ETH could decline. As concerns grow about the US government potentially defaulting on its debt, Jeff Kendrick stated that such an event would cause BTC's price to surge by over $20,000.
5月4日TuoniaoX.com消息,渣打银行外汇研究主管杰夫肯德里克最近表示,如果美国违约,比特币的价格可能会上涨20,000美元。根据肯德里克的说法,虽然比特币在美国违约时可能会飙升,但ETH等其他加密货币可能会下跌。随着人们越来越担心美国政府可能会拖欠债务,杰夫肯德里克表示,这样的事件将导致BTC的价格飙升超过20,000美元。尽管肯德里克将违约描述为“低概率、高影响的事件”,但他仍然表示,顶级加密货币在市场下跌时表现良好的声誉及其避险地位意味着其价格近70%的飙升是可能的。
