Standard Chartered Targets $100 UNI by 2030 on RWA Growth

The Price Target and Timing

Standard Chartered published a research note setting a $100 price target for Uniswap (UNI) by 2030, according to reports from Decrypt and NewsBTC. The 12-year forecast anchors the bank's thesis on expansion of tokenized real-world assets—a sector that includes tokenized stocks, bonds, and other on-chain representations of traditional financial instruments.

Market Reaction

UNI rose 20% in the 24 hours following the Standard Chartered note, reaching its highest single-day gain in recent weeks. The timing coincided with Uniswap's launch of a tokenized-stock product, which the market appeared to interpret as validation of the bank's RWA growth thesis. The size of the one-day move suggests momentum trading alongside genuine buying from longer-horizon investors acting on the bank's call.

Context on RWA Adoption

Tokenized real-world assets remain an emerging category. Uniswap's entry into the space through its tokenized-stock offering positions it as infrastructure for that sector rather than a direct issuer. Standard Chartered's $100 target implicitly assumes meaningful adoption of RWA trading on Uniswap over the next decade, a claim that remains speculative and dependent on regulatory clarity and institutional participation.
