Recently, the word "Silver" has gone completely viral on Google's trending searches, with the search index hitting a new all-time high. This is actually easy to understand—the rally in precious metals has been quite fierce.

A simple comparison makes it clear. The increase in precious metals has outperformed other asset classes by a wide margin. Although the stock market has also benefited, with the Shanghai Composite Index surpassing 4000 points, in terms of popularity and profit-making effects, traditional finance still remains more attractive.

What does this phenomenon fundamentally reflect? Large capital is reallocating. The money originally invested in certain sectors is starting to shift toward safe-haven assets like precious metals, which is a clear signal.

Looking at the current state of the crypto market, it’s a bit like waiting at a red light. How well mainstream coins like BTC, ETH, and SOL are doing depends, frankly, on the mood of the traditional market. As long as big funds are still playing the traditional finance game, the crypto space can only serve as a foil. But the moment this situation changes—when the enthusiasm in traditional markets begins to cool down—funds will flow back into the crypto ecosystem. When that happens, the crypto world will truly take center stage.
