In accordance with Coindesk, silver has overtaken bitcoin in volatility as year-end trading thins, with silver's 30-day realized volatility reaching the mid-50s compared to bitcoin's mid-40s. Silver's price has surged over 151% this year, driven by a demand-supply mismatch and China's new export licensing policy. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is down nearly 7% year-to-date and trades 30% below its October high. Analysts attribute bitcoin's slump to fading demand for spot ETFs and the DAT narrative losing momentum.
