$19B Market Crash Paves Way for Bitcoin's Rise to $200K - Standard Chartered: Why Digitap ($TAP) Could Rally 50x Harder

The October flash crash saw $19 billion in forced liquidations-that's what a real reset looks like. This washout cleared out leverage, reset funding, and gave the market a clean sheet. The perfect foundation for another leg up, and Standard Chartered is calling for $200K BTC this year.

Gold just had its largest single-day drop since 2013, and it is time for the baton to be passed. Up next is BTC, but what comes after BTC? This is Q4, and if history is any guide, that means altcoins.

While BTC dominates headlines, attention focuses on Digitap ($TAP), a new presale that could rally 50X harder. It is the world's first omni-bank, and as payments boom, it could quickly become one of 2025's best performers.

Positioning Whiplash: Why Markets Look Better Now

Markets move to hurt the majority-it is a tale as old as time. When leverage stacks too high on one side, a small move against it can trigger a liquidation cascade. Forced sellers create more forced sellers and open interest collapses in hours.

That is what the $19 billion liquidation did. It flushed out longs, normalized funding, and left spot holders in control. When leverage is gone, it is precisely the backdrop large allocators prefer when adding risk in size. And everything screams that it is BTC's turn to remind everyone how fast it can move.

Bitcoin & Gold: The 90-Day Rule

Bitcoin and gold compete partially in the same arena: the store-of-value/debasement trade. While negatively correlated over shorter time frames, they are strongly correlated over more extended periods. BTC trades similarly to gold but with a roughly 90-day lag.

Gold runs first, and Bitcoin catches up around a quarter later. Markets are delivering a textbook setup right now. Gold's relentless rise in price action, followed by a 5% decline in a single day, is the perfect way to pass the baton.

Standard Chartered is bullish, calling for $200K before year's end, and now that ETF inflows are picking up and leverage has been cleared, this prediction looks likely to hit.

Digitap's Omni-Bank Stack

Payments and stablecoins are the golden geese in 2025. The winners will be the systems that treat bank money and on-chain capital as equal-status liquidity. And that's why Digitap's presale is rapidly approaching $1 million, showing strong early momentum as investors flip long on the world's first omni-bank.

Digitap is built as a control panel for moving value, whether that be stablecoins, fiat, or crypto. Everything sits on one dashboard, and under the hood, Digitap has integrated traditional banking rails and blockchains. Payments and transfers travel on the fastest rail, automatically selected by Digitap's AI-powered routing system.

The Visa card brings on-chain balances into the real world, and with non-KYC, anyone can sign up for a virtual card today. Digitap is already available for download, and this has been a central driver in the presale's success-users can trial the app before investing, a rarity in the crypto presale world.

Introducing the $TAP Flywheel

The native $TAP token underpings this entire ecosystem. Holders unlock cashback rewards, VIP perks, and can stake for rewards. It has a capped supply of 2 billion and is a core player in the ecosystem.

Most altcoins have suffered this cycle because they lack a revenue mechanism. Digitap allocated 50% of platform profits to open-market purchases of TAP. 50% of these acquired tokens are burnt permanently, and the other 50% distributed to stakers.

More adoption and payments on Digitap directly translate into more buying pressure for $TAP, and this cash flow circuit makes it look scarily undervalued at its current price of $0.0194. But investors will have to be quick because in the next round, $TAP will be priced at $0.0268.

Why $TAP Could 50X Before the End of the Year

Bitcoin looks like it wants to tag $200,000 before the year ends. But while BTC offers nearly 2X returns, $TAP at these levels could easily deliver 50X or more.

Early-stage platforms perform best in Q4, with an aggressive adoption curve ahead, and by compressing cross-border payment costs to below 1% (an industry that processes trillions of dollars in volume annually), $TAP looks like a dark horse that could shock everyone.

It has a structural advantage thanks to the $TAP flywheel, and if settlement volume expands as predicted, $TAP could easily hit a 50X before the end of the year.
