#Silver Mimics #Crypto With Wild Price Swings


Silver reached a new all-time high near $84 during weekend trading before experiencing extreme volatility reminiscent of cryptocurrency markets. The precious metal spiked 6% then plunged 10% within a single hour.


Market publication The Kobeissi Letter documented the dramatic moves starting at 6:20 p.m. ET Sunday when futures opened. #Silver prices surged to a record $83.75, gaining 6% in just 20 minutes after markets began trading.


By 7:30 p.m. ET, silver had crashed to $75.15, erasing 10% of its value over 70 minutes. The sharp reversals mirror typical $BTC trading patterns despite precious metals generally maintaining more stable pricing than digital assets.


#Gold also climbed to fresh heights around $4,530 as demand for precious metals continues its strong run. The precious metals boom comes as the crypto market struggles to gain momentum heading into 2026.
