Citigroup has lowered its expectations for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) on Tuesday, with new price targets below the record highs seen by both leading cryptocurrencies in the last year.

The bank cut its 12-month price target for Bitcoin by $31,000 to $112,000, down from a prior forecast of $143,000. Its outlook for Ethereum was reduced by $1,139 to $3,175 from an earlier estimate of $4,304. For comparison, Bitcoin’s record high is above $126,000, reached in October last year, while Ethereum peaked at over $4,900 in August.

Slower Policy Progress, ETF Demand Weigh on Outlook

Citigroup cited slower progress on U.S. crypto legislation, subdued on-chain activity, and more cautious expectations for exchange-traded fund inflows as key reasons for the downgrade.

The bank now expects 12-month ETF demand of about $10 billion for Bitcoin and $2.5 billion for Ethereum. It also assigns roughly a 60% probability to U.S. digital asset legislation passing this year.
