Standard Chartered noted that such legislation would enhance regulatory clarity, facilitate broader adoption, and integrate crypto further into the traditional financial system.<\/p>\n<p>Kendrick also predicted <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/sovereign-entities-opt-for-indirect-bitcoin-exposure-via-strategy-to-bypass-constraints-stanchart\/\">broadening sovereign adoption<\/a> of Bitcoin and said that any evidence of national-level buying would support long-term demand and price stability, similar to the impact seen from corporate treasury accumulation in recent months.<\/p>\n<h2>Halving cycle theory is over<\/h2>\n<p>The note also addressed market worries about Bitcoin\u2019s halving cycle, a scheduled event every four years that cuts mining rewards in half and historically influences price patterns.<\/p>\n<p>Kendrick explained that in previous cycles, Bitcoin prices have fallen about 18 months after a halving, which would imply potential declines around September or October of this year based on the April 2024 halving.<\/p>\n<p>However, Standard Chartered believes that the dynamic has changed. Kendrick wrote that thanks to strong ETF inflows and corporate treasury buying,\u00a0 factors that were absent in earlier cycles,\u00a0 Bitcoin may avoid the typical post-halving decline.<\/p>\n<p>He said price is likely to be volatile in late September and early October as markets focus on this historical pattern, but forecasted that the uptrend will resume at year-end, driven by these new structural demand factors.<\/p>\n<p>Kendrick concluded that the coming months will demonstrate how Bitcoin has moved beyond its previous halving cycle behaviour, summarising his outlook simply:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Buckle up.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin (BTC) could see its strongest half-year performance ever in late 2025, driven by record ETF inflows, policy risks to the Federal Reserve, and broadening sovereign adoption, according to Geoffrey Kendrick, head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered.
