How much silver can one Bitcoin buy today? The answer might surprise you.
Right now, a single BTC fetches roughly 1,458 ounces of silver—the lowest level we've seen since October 2023. That's a dramatic shift. At the beginning of this year, the same Bitcoin could've grabbed around 3,500 ounces. We're talking about a 58% nosedive in the BTC/silver ratio.
What's driving this compression? The ratio's been sliding since August, signaling either Bitcoin's relative weakness against precious metals or silver's newfound strength in uncertain times. Either way, the gap between digital gold and physical silver is narrowing fast—a dynamic worth watching for anyone tracking cross-asset volatility.

BTC is dropping so hard, but silver is actually holding up... This market is getting more and more ridiculous.

Damn, Bitcoin has dropped to the point where it can only be exchanged for 1,458 ounces of silver? At the beginning of the year, it could still be exchanged for over 3,500... This is really a slap in the face.

Oh my, 1458 ounces? Why has my Bitcoin depreciated so much? I'm losing it.

Silver is surging so aggressively that Bitcoin looks weak in comparison. Maybe it's time to listen to the gold advocates.

58% cut in half directly, the data doesn't lie. From 3500 to 1458, this arbitrage opportunity has long since disappeared.
