🔘A rare shift has taken place in global markets: silver has reached a 45-year high, overtaking Bitcoin in total market capitalization for the first time. The surge in demand for the physical metal has been fueled by record purchases and withdrawals from vaults, as investors rotate capital toward tangible assets.
🔘While silver and gold continue to strengthen, cryptocurrencies have weakened, prompting speculation that a bearish phase may be emerging for digital assets. Analysts link this move to recession fears and rising borrowing costs, noting that silver has become a symbol of “real value” amid doubts about the sustainability of the crypto market. Still, some investors maintain that Bitcoin’s scarcity and digital nature will eventually restore its appeal once the correction subsides.
