  • Standard Chartered projects ARB at US$10 by the end of 2030, roughly 70 times the token\u2019s price when analyst Geoff Kendrick\u2019s client note was reported on September 15.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • The bank estimates Arbitrum will collect about US$5 million in program fees in September, up from under US$1 million a month before Robinhood Chain launched.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Kendrick expects ARB to outperform Bitcoin and Ether through 2030, while flagging slower tokenisation, rival chains and ARB holders\u2019 lack of a direct revenue claim as risks.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    Standard Chartered forecasts Arbitrum\u2019s ARB token reaching US$10 (AU$14) by the end of 2030, roughly 70X its price, citing the network\u2019s growing cut of revenue from companies such as Robinhood that build on it.<\/p>\n

    Geoff Kendrick, the bank\u2019s global head of digital assets research, set a path of US$0.50 (AU$0.70) by the end of 2026, US$1.50 (AU$2.10) in 2027, US$3.50 (AU$4.90) in 2028 and US$6.50 (AU$9.10) in 2029, and expects the token to outperform Bitcoin and Ether over the period.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    The forecast rests on the Arbitrum Expansion Program, the licence under which Robinhood Chain pays 10% of its protocol net revenue to the Arbitrum ecosystem, split 8% to the ArbitrumDAO treasury and 2% to the Arbitrum Developer Guild.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    Kendrick stated the launch \u201cdemonstrated the potential for Arbitrum to become the number 1 choice for TradFi when bringing assets on-chain\u201d.<\/p>\n

    Robinhood Chain Pays Its Way<\/h2>\n

    Robinhood Chain went live on public mainnet on 1 July after a testnet that processed more than 200 million transactions, hosting Robinhood\u2019s Stock Tokens alongside Uniswap trading, Morpho lending and the Paxos-issued USDG stablecoin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    In its first month, the chain paid about US$360,000 (AU$504,000) in licence fees, roughly 35% of the ArbitrumDAO\u2019s income for July, according to the bank.<\/p>\n

    Standard Chartered estimates Arbitrum will collect about US$5 million (AU$7 million) in program fees in September at the current run rate, up from under US$1 million (AU$1.4 million) a month before the launch.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    Robinhood Chain\u2019s daily fee revenue averaged US$2.8 million (AU$3.92 million) in the first two weeks of September, the bank noted, the same adoption run CNA charted as the chain neared US$1 billion (AU$1.4 billion) in single-day trading volume.<\/p>\n

    Standard Chartered, which has built its own crypto footprint through a partnership with prime broker FalconX, forecasts US$4 trillion (AU$5.6 trillion) of traditional assets to be tokenised by the end of 2028.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    Kendrick\u2019s valuation keys ARB to Arbitrum\u2019s share of the revenue companies generate building on the network, part of the shift that Bitwise\u2019s Matt Hougan has called Wall Street\u2019s next trillion-dollar revolution.<\/p>\n

    Kendrick flagged slower-than-expected tokenisation and competition from rival blockchains as the main risks to the call, and noted ARB holders currently have no direct claim on the revenue flowing to the DAO.<\/p>\n
