When precious metals hit fresh ATHs, the market dynamics shift fast. Gold soars first, silver follows suit, and suddenly the media spotlight swings away from crypto. Bitcoin sits there consolidating while everyone's attention pivots.

Then it happens—retail crowds and so-called investors start chasing that momentum, pouring into spot gold and silver positions as FOMO kicks in. Each fresh buyer thinks they're early. But here's the thing: once the rotation is complete and everyone's already loaded up, that's typically when the real story changes. The cycle flips when there's no fresh capital left to chase the rally.

It's the same rotation again, when precious metals take off, BTC gets neglected. LOL

It's an old story; when precious metals rise, everyone forgets about BTC... it's just a rotation game.

This is a typical cycle of new investors getting caught in the trap. Today it's precious metals, and tomorrow who knows? Really, every time it's only the latecomers who realize they've been trapped. Wait, is the logic that once everyone enters the market, they should all exit? It doesn't seem that simple. This kind of manipulation used in the crypto world has now been applied to precious metals. Human nature, always something we can never truly learn.

It's the same old trick again—precious metals get the spotlight while BTC is neglected like a discarded child. Wait, how long can this rally in gold and silver last? It feels like retail investors are about to start rushing in. When everyone enters the market, the selling wave is about to begin... and then it will be a matter of who can run faster.

Basically, it's just a different variant of the same old trick to cut leeks. The recent wave in precious metals is also a capital pool scheme. Early entrants are just waiting for the later ones to take over. The chip distribution is so obvious, and yet some still ask me why I didn't get on the train? Risk warning, everyone. This rotation is just a game of hot potato. I'm just watching, waiting for the moment when no one is chasing anymore—that's when the real story begins. It’s always like this. When FOMO kicks in, people start losing money. Just for your reference, this does not constitute investment advice. Wait, you really believe that the new high in gold means the bull market is here? I think it’s more like the final frenzy. Rotation is rotation. Anyway, I’ve already been scared off by being cut once, so I’ll observe for now. Human nature, always the latecomers are the most numerous and also suffer the worst losses... Well, I’m not just saying that, it’s backed by data.
