That's what paper markets are all about. Bitcoin etf holders and leveraged traders should pay attention.

Also interesting action in BTC price overnight. Shit is breaking quicker than I think most are prepared for behind the scenes
Mirrors pattern on Kitco which I believe tracks “physical” price. Learned a new TLA, CFD: In finance, a contract for difference (CFD) is a financial agreement between two parties, commonly referred to as the "buyer" and the "seller." The contract stipulates that the buyer will pay the seller the difference between the current value of an asset and its value at the time the contract was initiated. If the asset's price increases from the opening to the closing of the contract, the seller compensates the buyer for the increase, which constitutes the buyer's profit. Conversely, if the asset's price decreases, the buyer compensates the seller, resulting in a profit for the seller.[1] Wikipedia Sounds like insurance for market volatility, which adds admin expense and a vehicle for a “cut.” Another vote for Bitcoin trading in real time, 24/7.
I don't understand this loyalty to just one thing. If you sold your bitcoin earlier in the year, bought silver, and then the other day sold your silver and bought back bitcoin then now you've got much MORE BITCOIN than if you'd just held. Same as if you had 100 bitcoin ten years ago, sold them all and bought ETH, then today, ten years later, sold your ETH and bought back bitcoin, you'd have MORE (lots, lots more). Trading is the way. Ideologically-driven bear-hugging of any one instrument is just silly.
Banks can lever up to 40X on their physical gold holdings allowing them to eat all the leverage in the metals market any time it gets hot, so retail will always get wrecked in the short term. There is, however, a clear repricing of commodities going on. Bitcoin will have its turn, too.
Such a thing as foresight too. Many a trader has used a little bit of it to do better than stubborn holders.

I own both but not for savings, for education. And just because I like it.

The mail??? You don’t have a bank near you? (And by bank I mean the place that exchanges gold and silver for fiat not the shady ponzi schemes that create fiat out of promises to repay)
Thought experiment: Swap #silver out for #Bitcoin and make it a dip from $84,000 to $72,000. Business as usual ;) —— A better question to ask: Why has Bitcoin taken 1,507 days to go from $69,000 to $87,000? Absolute trash! 🗑️ View quoted note →
