This year's market performance has been truly unexpected. Good news keeps coming from the precious metals sector, with gold achieving a new high in the dollar era with an annual increase of 70%-73%, and silver soaring even more dramatically, with a growth of 150%-169%, setting new historical highs. Platinum is not to be outdone, with an annual increase of 160%-172%, also breaking records. Palladium, although its rise is relatively moderate, at 124%, is also at its highest level in three years.

In contrast, Bitcoin, often dubbed "digital gold," has an annual decline of -8%, a stark contrast that is simply astonishing. Once hailed as an asset of the new era, cryptocurrencies are now being overshadowed by traditional precious metals. It's somewhat ironic—real gold is running fast, while the one claiming to be a gold substitute has fallen behind. This market trend has indeed dealt a cold shower to the crypto world, prompting many to reevaluate the value of precious metals.

-8%? Haha, this is what they call digital gold. --- Precious metals are ridiculously fierce, while Bitcoin is still falling behind. --- Real gold and silver double in value every year, what’s there to show off in the crypto world? --- I told you, traditional assets never lie. --- It’s time to wake up; not all innovations outperform traditional assets. --- Silver has risen over 150%, while BTC is in the negative—ironic, isn’t it? --- Looks like I need to reconfigure my positions; precious metals are very attractive. --- New era assets? The old classics will just give you a lesson.

Haha, precious metals are really taking off this time, while Bitcoin has fallen so much? That's a bit ironic.

Oh no, this round of precious metals is truly amazing, and Bitcoin is actually still negative... Speaking of which, this is why I still trust precious metals. Silver has risen over 150%? Is this really not a joke? Crypto circle: I am the future, I am the revolution. Reality: Completely crushed by old fossils. Feels like I need to reallocate assets; I can't just go all-in on one. Gold is the true king of safe-haven assets, and this market trend proves everything. So is now a good time to jump into precious metals, or has the bubble already blown up... When Bitcoin dropped 8%, I thought the crypto market was about to take off. Now I’ve been proven wrong.

Silver rose 150%, why didn't I catch up? That's really incredible.
