Standard Chartered Bank has quietly changed its tune—its year-end BTC target has been slashed from $200,000 to $100,000, and that once-aggressive $500,000 prediction? It's now been postponed to 2030.

The reason is straightforward: ETF inflows have suddenly weakened. It seems institutional attitudes are also swaying with market sentiment.

Institutional stances are as trend-following as chickens, changing at the drop of a hat. That's why I only trust my own HODL strategy.

Damn, they're flaking again, this time it's Standard Chartered? What happened to the promised 200,000? Institutions are such bandwagoners. When they don't have money to enter the market, they just change their tune. It's really ridiculous. Pushing 500,000 to 2030—I doubt I'll live to see it. ETFs are so weak and timid, yet they still dare to call themselves the main force. These so-called prophets just get better and better at talking big.

Delaying again, this is a typical institutional trick.

Aiyo, they're starting to flake again, I'm way too familiar with this trick. --- 500,000 dream postponed to 2030, I'd be a fool to believe them now. --- Institutions change their tune after fleecing retail investors, tsk tsk. --- Just admit the funds are weak, stop talking about fundamentals. --- From 20 to 10, this rebound market is really something else. --- When ETF inflows fall short, they just change the target, I give this move a 5 out of 10. --- If you still believe analysts' predictions, I salute you for being tough.

Institutions just love this... they shout the loudest, but run away faster than anyone else.

Uh, this is awkward. 200,000 slashed to 100,000, the institutions really do take us for fools.
