Silver surges past Bitcoin as cryptocurrencies cool amid risk-avoidance trend

Abstract generation in progress

【Crypto World】The silver rally this time is a bit fierce. Its market capitalization has reached $3.437 trillion, surpassing Amazon’s $2.418 trillion and even leaving Bitcoin’s $1.803 trillion behind. Spot prices have also hit a new high of $64.64 per ounce.

Why is this happening? To put it simply, investors are showing weakness. The Federal Reserve cut interest rates recently, and the market initially expected this would benefit risk assets. However, the economic outlook remains uncertain, and risk assets are being sold off. Cryptocurrencies are at the forefront, with funds flowing into traditional safe-haven assets like gold and silver.

However, from a long-term perspective, analysts in the community are still calling for Bitcoin. Some predict it could break through $150,000 by 2026. If that happens, funds are likely to flow back again. But the current reality is that traditional safe-haven assets are siphoning off a large amount of liquidity, and there’s no sign of this trend reversing at the moment.

Oh my, this wave of silver directly seals the deal, the crypto world is really being drained.

Silver is booming, but our coin is cooling down. This wave of market movement is really a bit heartbreaking...

Silver taking off was indeed unexpected, but isn't this the old trick of the safe-haven trend? When risky assets falter, people flock to precious metals. This economy is indeed a bit uncertain; Bitcoin might continue to take a hit in the short term. Wait, 150,000 in 2026? Just hear it out and don't take it too seriously.

Another rinse and repeat, silver rises while our coins fall, it's really damn ridiculous.

The risk aversion wave is here, and the crypto world is taking another hit. This rhythm is truly incredible. --- Silver is taking off while the crypto market is lying flat. Is the economic outlook really that bad? --- The $150,000 dream still has to wait. Right now, traditional assets are dominating. --- Money is flowing into gold and silver, while the coins are still lying on the floor. --- When will this wave of risk aversion turn around? Can't keep grinding like this. --- Long-term bullish on Bitcoin, but in the short term, it's really frustrating. --- Risk assets are being dumped wildly, while old-school assets shine brightly—what a irony. --- Liquidity is flowing into safe-haven assets, and the pain in the crypto world is far from over. --- When will risk appetite return? We can get active then. --- Silver can hit new highs, but coins are bouncing on the floor—ridiculous.

Silver's frenzy is really crazy, but can this last? It seems more like funds are seeking a safe haven to me.

Another cycle has completed, I've been through this before. The recent surge in silver is just a panic fleeing route for capital, I've seen more exaggerated scenes during the 2018 mining disaster. Wait, are you really comparing silver's market value to that of cryptocurrencies? Can we trust this data? Breaking 150,000 in 2026? Haha, the analysts' storytelling skills are as reliable as ever. I only know that the current selling speed is ten times faster than the rise. Capital is like this, it blows where the wind blows, no one wants to freeze with you in a bear market. When the wind shifts, they will rush in desperately, then trap a new batch of retail investors. Just a cycle.
