Gold and silver just experienced historic volatility while Bitcoin feels strangely stuck. In this episode of No Second Best, we step back from the noise to examine why traditional monetary signals are breaking down, why the Fed is dismissing the message, and why Bitcoin's price action is confusing so many people right now. The explanation isn't obvious — and it challenges some deeply held assumptions.

Silver has exploded, gold is ripping, and Bitcoin looks left behind — but history says this is exactly how the cycle works. This episode breaks down why violent moves in silver signal deep monetary stress, why Bitcoin always lags before it leads, and how capital rotation is quietly setting up Bitcoin's next repricing. When hard assets wake up together, Bitcoin never stays asleep for long.

Bitcoin has erased its 2026 gains while gold surges toward $5,000, leaving investors questioning whether Bitcoin has failed as a hedge. From Davos central bankers mocking Bitcoin to Cathie Wood's case that the bear market may already be over, this episode explores why Bitcoin's long consolidation could set up its largest move yet. Structure, volatility compression, and macro power shifts all point to what comes next for Bitcoin.
