Interesting reversal phenomena have occurred in the precious metals market in 2025. Silver's performance this year has far surpassed gold, with an annual increase of about 64%, earning it the market nickname "Perfect Storm." From $29 per ounce at the beginning of the year, it soared to nearly $79 by the end of the year, with a cumulative increase of over 150%. Especially in December, silver experienced a 40% increase in a single month, repeatedly setting multiple historical highs.
In contrast, Bitcoin's global asset ranking has also undergone adjustments. As early as April, Bitcoin surged to the 5th position in global asset market value, while silver was still ranked 10th. In just a few months, the positions of the two assets have reversed. This reflects the market's re-pricing of different assets—traditional precious metals have attracted increasing investor attention due to inflation expectations, dollar depreciation, and other factors, especially silver, which is widely used in industry, as its value has been rediscovered.

Silver's recent rally is truly incredible, with a 150% surge taking off directly.
Traditional precious metals are making a comeback, and this is real value discovery.
40% in a single month? No way, this pace is a bit fierce.
It seems that inflationary pressures are really causing everyone to return to fundamentals, wisely.
Silver has surpassed gold and even overtaken Bitcoin in ranking, and the market is telling a new story.
This is what is called a perfect storm, I believe it.
From 29 to 79, it feels like I missed out on a billion haha.

The recent silver market movement is truly outrageous, with a 150% increase that completely stunned everyone.
I didn't expect BTC to be overtaken in the rankings; the sudden turnaround of traditional metals is quite intense.
