Silver has surpassed Bitcoin in market value, reaching a 45-year high, as investors pivot from digital assets to traditional commodities. This development marks a significant shift in capital allocation, raising questions about the future of Bitcoin as 'digital gold.' The Bitcoin-to-silver ratio has been on a decline since 2021, suggesting a potential bear market for cryptocurrencies. The recent 'Black Friday' crypto crash has exacerbated this trend, with some investors reporting substantial losses, including one trader who lost 80% of their portfolio. This movement towards tangible assets is driven by economic uncertainty and rising interest rates, reflecting a broader market sentiment.
