Citigroup lifts 12‑month Bitcoin price target to $113,000 and expects $5 billion of ETF inflows
Citigroup raised its 12‑month price target for Bitcoin to $113,000, up from $82,000, and increased its Ethereum target to $3,028. The bank said the revision reflects stronger market activity, a supportive macro backdrop and an anticipated $5 billion of crypto ETF inflows over the next year. The note also referenced recent regulatory developments, including the Senate’s failure to pass the Clarity Act.
Why it matters
The higher targets may boost investor sentiment toward Bitcoin and Ethereum, as the bank’s outlook is often followed by institutional investors. Citigroup’s expectation of $5 billion in inflows suggests a modest but steady return of capital to crypto ETFs, which could support price stability.
