🥈 Silver 2026. Price analysis over 10 years. The global market is in a state of "physical hunger"
Silver has officially ceased to be just "cheap gold." In January 2026, the metal made a historic breakthrough, surpassing the psychological barrier of $100 per ounce. However, the main sensation is not happening on the charts, but in real storage.$XAG Over 10 years, silver has transformed from the "poor relative of gold" to one of the most profitable assets of the decade. If in 2016, an investment of $1000 would have brought you about 60 ounces of the metal, today those ounces are worth over $6000, demonstrating a sixfold increase.
Gold shows an exciting path from speculative peaks to prolonged periods of stagnation and modern rapid growth. 📉 1980–1999 The era of the 'bear' market and stabilization 📌 1980 year — Historical peak. In January 1980, the price of gold reached the then-record of $850 per ounce. This was driven by high inflation in the USA, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and the Iranian crisis (Doesn't this ring a bell? 🤔?).
🐋 Whales Also Cry: Who Really Controls the Market?
Once again an unpopular long read and once again liquidity, which is rarely found😉 Many imagine the image of an "almighty whale" that presses a button and moves $BTC wherever it wishes. But let's clarify the concepts: a whale is not a god of the market, it's just a player with a very large wallet. And yes, they also face liquidations.
The price went down during "lunch" to $65,756, turning thousands of long positions into pure profit for big players.
🤔What do we see on the charts now?
1️⃣ Liquidation has occurred. The chart clearly shows a long "wick" down to the mark of 65,756. This is the very moment when the market took the money from those who believed in a quick rise.
2️⃣ The heat map has updated. The bright yellow zone at the bottom has partially "turned off," as the orders have already been filled. But pay attention: new liquidity levels are starting to form again at around 70,000+.
After such a sharp removal of liquidity, we see two scenarios: ✅ we wait for consolidation. If the price holds above 66,000 and starts to show strength, we may see a move against the short sellers, who will now start to "jump" onto the falling train.
✅ if new longs start to accumulate too quickly again, the market may make another "stab" lower to finally knock out those who survived.
We are participants in this survival game 😉

Liquidity: are you the hunter or the prey? 🦈
Liquidity is the fuel of the crypto market. Without it, even a promising asset like $BTC turns into a stagnant burden. In simple terms: it is the ability to quickly buy or sell an asset at a price that is as close to the market price as possible. But in crypto, there is a strict rule: if you don't understand where the liquidity is on the chart, then you are most likely the liquidity.

🤔🔮It's nice to observe that the charts and indicators are currently working, not Trump. Fingers crossed to avoid jinxing it.
Globally we have turned, but locally the chart $BTC shows that the liquidity hunt down may still repeat in a quick 'sweep' format. If we cannot hold above $72,000 now, the market may turn to 'shake out' the longs once more and take those accumulated funds before the real global growth.
And after that, most likely, the price will not stop until it 'liquidates' the main liquidity pool above $73k. After this, a short pullback or consolidation is possible to form a new base.
On the heat map, a huge, bright yellow liquidity mass is clearly visible in the range of $73,000 – $75,000. This is a critical mass of short liquidations $BTC . The market is literally 'magnetizing' there.
🤔🔥🔥🔥Shall we begin? Are you ready for recovery $BTC ? It is possible that $BTC will dive back to the mark of $63,000 for the final liquidity gathering and a short-lived flat. However, critical accumulation of shorts creates ideal conditions for an immediate short squeeze, which will aggressively take out overly optimistic bears. 🔮The first serious target is $71,200. That is where a cascade of short closures will begin, which are currently being opened "in pursuit" of the market. Let's go🧘
🤔The bottom is coming soon ...and $BTC at $60,000 looks quite real.
A breakout at $70,000 will trigger a final "wash" down to $60,000 – $65,000, where the largest volume of liquidity is accumulated for long-term buyers.
While we see prevailing selling strength, any rise without breaking $80,000 should be considered a temporary correction within the downward trend.👇 #btcdumping #BTC #dump
👋Good morning, friends☕ How are you here? Are you coming to Binance? Life has turned into a perception of graphs $BTC $PAXG $XAG , because there are more dynamic light graphs... I suggest another energy-backed and very volatile coin for tokenization $SVITLO. What do you think, is there potential?🤔
🤔🔥Today the "safe haven" is storming stronger than crypto. Metals are showing signs of panic — $XAG −23.75%, XAU −8.81%, XPT −5.42%, XPD −5.02% — the market is taking an ironic pause.
Against this backdrop, BTC −1.59%, $BNB −1.78%, $SOL −0.81%, ETH −3.89% look almost like a model of resilience.
It seems that today "risk" is behaving more calmly than the assets that were supposed to save us from the storm.
In most projects, the problem is not in the technology, but in the behavior of people. $XPL it is interesting precisely because it tries to work not only with code but with the economic logic of the ecosystem. @Plasma builds an environment where it is important not just to process more transactions, but to ensure that participants benefit from acting in the long term, rather than extracting liquidity and disappearing.
☕Red weekends always come with increased risk. When markets enter Saturday in the negative, the situation rarely "calms down." Liquidity decreases, there are fewer active buyers, and any sale moves the price more strongly than on weekdays. That’s why a red background on Friday often turns into either a push or sharp chaotic movements.
The key signal today is that not only risky assets are under pressure, but also defensive ones. Falling are $PAXG , $XAU , $XAG , and along with them new instruments $XPD and $XPT. This means that the market is not hedging right now, but going into cash, reducing overall risk.
The most common weekend scenarios: continuation of the sell-off in a thin market, a short technical rebound from oversold conditions, or a draining sideways movement without volume.
What usually becomes decisive is not Saturday, but how the market closes on Sunday — this moment often sets the mood for the beginning of the new week🧘. #MarketCorrection #PAXG
🤔 Even protective assets today do not save. On the screenshots $XPD and $XPT — a sharp start after listing and almost immediately a dump. Formally, these are protective assets: palladium and platinum, the logic is close to XAU and XAG. But today the market behaves differently.
When in crypto the mode is strict risk-off, not only altcoins are sold. $PAXG , XAU, XAG fall, and along with them — XPD and XPT. This is not a flight to safety, but a mass reduction of risk and leverage. In such moments even 'safe haven' trades temporarily as risky instruments.
RSI on the hourly timeframe is in the oversold zone, but buyers are in no hurry — the market is not looking for entry points right now, it is cleaning liquidity. So a weak start for listings is not about the asset itself, but about the background. On a day when everything falls, even protective metals do not receive immunity. #XPD #XPT #PAXG #MarketCorrection
Plasma is an example of how infrastructure solutions are once again at the forefront of the market. Project @Plasma is working on scalability and efficiency, which are critically important for the next wave of Web3 products. $XPL looks like a token worth keeping an eye on not because of hype, but because of the technology and approach to development.
This is the result of a rare phenomenon that financiers call a 'liquidity crisis' or 'flash crash'. The situation is unique in that everything fell at once: both risky assets BTC, ETH, SOL and safe havens (Gold $PAXG , $XAU Silver $XAG ). Let's consider the main reasons why this is happening right now:
🫣Is anyone alive, or has everyone already run to fill out the survey? It's not as tragic🤔, in my opinion. From $SOL you can play, $PAXG it's time to buy again, and $XAG you can also enter futures instead of spot with x1, x2, because without it, there's no way right now... Everything will be fine🧘 #crashmarket #XAG_ #PAXG
🚨🚨🚨Flash crash of Bitcoin $BTC , gold ($PAXG ) and silver ($XAG ) within one hour. Usually, these assets move in different directions (gold rises when risky assets fall), but such a synchronous vertical drop indicates specific reasons, we will see ...🤔
