A major global bank just told Wall Street that a DeFi governance token could 40x over four years. Standard Chartered initiated coverage on Uniswap’s UNI token on June 15, setting a price target of $100 by the end of 2030, up from roughly $2.50 at the time of the report.
The roadmap to $100
Standard Chartered laid out a year-by-year price trajectory for UNI: $6.50 by the end of 2026, $20 by 2027, $40 by 2028, and $65 by 2029, before reaching the full $100 target in 2030.
Geoff Kendrick, Standard Chartered’s Global Head of Digital Assets Research, is the lead analyst behind the report. The core argument is straightforward: Uniswap is positioned to become the primary on-chain trading venue for a rapidly expanding universe of tokenized real-world assets, including treasuries, bonds, equities, and real estate, all represented as tokens and traded through decentralized protocols instead of traditional exchanges.
