Citi favors crypto infrastructure companies with less direct exposure to token prices, setting a $243 price target for Circle due to its strong position in stablecoin payment networks. The bank sees stablecoins as a likely default for cross-border payments and real-world asset tokenization, highlighting Circle's compliant platform and technology stack. Citi also downgraded Securitize to neutral, citing uncertain economics and potential share supply risks. The firm expects Bitcoin to reach $113,000 in 12 months and values crypto firms based on yield and net asset value rather than pure token price exposure, emphasizing infrastructure supporting tokenization, payments, and high-performance computing as key growth areas.
