Standard Chartered Forecast: Arbitrum May Beat BTC and ETH by 2030
Standard Chartered’s Geoff Kendrick is making a pointed bet on Arbitrum’s long-term upside, arguing that the layer-2 network could become a standout beneficiary as traditional finance accelerates the shift toward onchain and tokenized assets. In a note shared with Cointelegraph, Kendrick highlights Arbitrum’s revenue model as a key reason for optimism: the network receives 10% of net protocol revenue generated by companies building on it. He points to Robinhood Chain—developed by the online brokerage Robinhood—as an early, high-visibility example of that mechanism in action.
