That is a large move in nominal terms, but the more revealing part of the call is not the price itself. The bank is effectively making a claim about the scale of economic value Sky can generate and distribute to token holders over the next two years.

In its coverage initiation, reported by The Block, Standard Chartered said the value distributed to SKY holders could rise fivefold by the end of 2028.
