Citigroup Raises Bitcoin Forecast to $113,000 on ETF Inflow Outlook

Citi said bitcoin could gain 37.8% from its prior target as advisers and brokerages gradually raise allocations and ETF inflows return.

  • On Thursday, October 1, Citigroup raised its 12-month Bitcoin forecast to $113,000 from $82,000 and lifted its Ether target to $3,028 from $2,240, citing resuming ETF inflows and supportive macroeconomic conditions.
  • The U.S. Treasury's move to buy back longer-dated bonds revived momentum across crypto markets, helping Bitcoin rise nearly 40% since its July lows and narrowing year-to-date losses to about 4%.
  • Citi projects $5 billion in crypto inflows over the next 12 months as advisers and brokerages gradually increase allocations; net inflows for 2026 reached $800 million as of late September.
  • Although the Senate failed to advance the Clarity Act last week, Citi stated that subsequent Securities and Exchange Commission rule announcements dampened negative industry sentiment.
  • The cryptocurrency market showed resilience after the Clarity Act rejection, with Bitcoin gaining more than 10% by month's end; institutional flows remain the next test for recovery momentum.
