The last days of 2025, it's time to review the market.

All the news on precious metals is good. Gold has surged fiercely, gaining over 65% for the year, the strongest performance since 1979. Silver is also soaring in tandem, leaving little room for the precious metals sector to catch its breath.

Bitcoin's situation is completely different. From a high of 93K, it has fallen all the way down to 88K, and the annual return is actually negative, with a decline of about 6%.

Honestly, looking at these numbers is quite heartbreaking — while precious metals hit forty-year highs, the crypto market hasn't even outperformed the benchmark. The contrast is indeed stark.

BTC-0,76%

Kaneko went crazy, and the coin actually dropped. This reversal is pretty intense.

Gold has risen so much, it's amazing. We're still falling... a bit disappointing.

This round of gold's rally is truly amazing, but I still believe in the long-term prospects of cryptocurrencies... Wait, why have I been betting on coins and ended up losing, damn it?

Gold this time is truly amazing, 65%. I missed it without even realizing it. In contrast, the crypto market is still losing money, it's ridiculous. --- 2025 isn't over yet, and we're already doing a review. Feeling a bit anxious, my friend. --- Precious metals have surged like this, but the crypto market is still struggling. It seems more and more people should be shifting. --- 93K to 88K, is that all? I thought it would be more intense. --- While antique metals are soaring, BTC is stagnating. The contrast is indeed remarkable. --- Gold outperformed the market, which isn't surprising. But the way the key coins are performing is really disappointing. --- 65%. If I had known earlier, I would have gone all-in on precious metals. Now it's too late to say anything. --- What is the crypto market doing? Even traditional assets are outperforming it. --- Negative returns. Is this 2025's New Year gift for crypto? --- Gold is invincible, no doubt. But Bitcoin's performance is really disappointing and can't be washed away.

This wave of gold is really amazing, but the crypto circle is still struggling... Comparing the two makes me a bit uncomfortable. 88K is all? I thought it could break 100. Precious metals have been soaring for so long, but we are still standing still, speechless. Gold is at its strongest in forty years, but we have negative returns, which is a bit ironic. The situation seems reversed; wasn't it always the crypto circle that outperformed traditional assets? These numbers look uncomfortable; it's the end of the year and we're still in the negative. It seems the小姐姐 who bought gold bars is making a fortune, while we are still wondering when the rebound will come. Soaring and falling at the same time, this operation is really heartbreaking.

Gold surges 65%, while BTC actually loses 6%. This comparison indeed can discourage many people. --- Oh my, the precious metals market is really extraordinary this time. I am still holding onto crypto; how resilient must that be? --- Wait, does dropping from 93K to 88K mean failure? Did I misunderstand? Isn't this just a correction? --- Laughing out loud, our group has always said BTC is a safe haven, but it turns out gold has taught us a lesson. Quite ironic. --- Precious metals have their strongest performance in forty years, while the crypto market still shows negative returns. What does this indicate? --- When comparing these numbers, I feel I need to change my approach. Holding coins alone is no longer enough. --- No wonder the most heard phrase this year is "all in on gold." Turns out they saw it clearly a long time ago. --- A 6% drop isn't a big deal, but the key question is: why can precious metals keep rising so steadily? --- I'm stunned. Watching my BTC in hand while gold takes off—what kind of situation is this? --- Why even review? Just go all in on gold. I can't see any chance of a turnaround.

Gold 65%, Bitcoin negative returns, this contrast is really outrageous. Feels a bit like being played. --- Over 40-year highs vs. losses, both are safe-haven assets, why is the difference so huge? --- 88K is still falling, this year has truly been a waste of effort. --- Gold is soaring wildly, while my crypto is dropping very fast, it's really heartbreaking. --- The strongest since 1979? Then I must have chosen the wrong track. --- Precious metals are running a marathon, Bitcoin is wrestling, really. --- Negative returns are really tough, might as well lie flat and buy gold.

Gold rush in the precious metals world, while our crypto circle is actually trapped; this contrast is really exciting.

Gold soars, Bitcoin drops the ball, truly amazing. If I had known earlier, I would have gone all in on precious metals. Now it's too late to regret. Seeing that 65% increase really shattered my mindset. We're still holding losses, while others are making a fortune. No way, Bitcoin actually has negative returns? I thought I was seeing things for a moment. How much can it possibly fall? Precious metals are outputting crazily, while the crypto circle is just there playing catch-up. This comparison is indeed a bit cruel. Why does it feel like gold is more reliable than coins? In this day and age, anything can happen.

This wave of gold is indeed impressive, but let's not forget that after a bull market often comes a bear market. How long precious metals can hold up is really uncertain. A 6% drop in Bitcoin isn't too bad; after all, there are many coins that have fallen even more sharply. Relatively speaking, it's still acceptable. If you ask me, the key is how to plan for next year—that's the real focus.
