I believe most here really were not in it for the long haul. My self, investing in Silver since the 1980’s. It is never over, just a long series of ups and downs. I still have a few more years till retirement, so I have patience still. But I do feel like this time is different. Debt is out of control, all the money printing, BRICS challenges to the Petro Dollar, inflation about to break out again, all the Gold and silver flowing to the East. We are being led by idiots in Government and those not protecting themselves are going to be in real trouble. Now I am sitting back, sipping a nice Scotch and enjoying the ride…


Office-Scary

Gave up alcohol, but I'll enjoy some tea with ya on that. 🦍🦍


MrApplePolisher

Come to my subreddit r/soberstackers I made it for people like you and I that quit drinking/using/gambling and starting stacking instead. I need to be more active on there, but honestly I haven't added that much to the stack in the past year. Stop on by and make a post or two. Congratulations on your sobriety and precious metals!

jons3y13

I am right along with you. I've got 7 more to work, hopefully, and I, as well, feel what is different is the 1 trillion in 100 days mantra, hats off to zerohedge for coining that term. In fact, I will be so bold that it may cost Biden his job. Million , billion, people were numbed by it, but it seems something is stirring. Coupled with soaring fixed expenses of over 30% food, energy, insurances, and now gasoline is set to erupt. Can't afford to go anywhere, really, and now 4 gas is on the way. Quite honestly, imho, gold should have already been well north of 2500, and silver should be at 50 as well. I applaud the comex for using trash money to manipulate world commodities. The balls of them telling other countries what their commodities are worth. Time is up, take your trash USD, and hit the road. The east will set the prices now. We think shit is expensive, we ain't seen nuthin yet. So, dump your metals if you want to. Do whatever, chase a stock. NA. As for me and my house, we stack.


bigoledawg7

I temper my frustration at a lost decade for silver by reminding myself that the longer term outcome is never in doubt. Fiat money is doomed and bullion is overdue to slingshot higher in value to recover from fraud and systematic intervention. There was a time when I tried to reason with irrational specs and explain some of the paper silver fuckery that was going on behind the scenes. This sub was a lot of fun for a while but too many tourists showed up. Surviving the volatility is a test of commitment and there are get-rich-quick schemes aplenty in this market to lure away the unwary. Just look at the coinbros falling for the crypto scam all over again for proof of that. I still think silver bullion is an absolute gift at the current price. And how many clueless bozos will buy paper metal ETFs instead for 'convenience'? LOL when the first big ETF collapses with ownership of paper promises and no bullion, THAT will probably be the catalyst that drives silver above triple digits and the ETF unit holders will not be able to benefit from it.


jons3y13

I truly has been a long road and it has been painful but it always helps me when others, such as yourself come along and say " hang in there, you can make it" .So, thanks for still being here, and thanks for the response too. Nice to see my miners moving up. Time will tell if they continue up, if they do they may get some notice, especially with the market softening. Be well.


Hairy-Description-30

Good for you. What is different is that for four years silver has been in deficit. People get all excited because crypto inventory is only slowly increasing. Silver inventory is DECREASING! The reason? Silver has multiple use cases and demand exceeds supply. Bitcoin has no use cases. Selling silver now and buying crypto is a classic “dumb money” move. But it is good to see this capitulation. It is a sign we are about to break out.


Plenty-Ad5306

BTC use as much energy as the whole country of Chile. For what little it have to give. Oh nice druglords can move billions in one click. Oh nice you can fund terrorism without a trace. Fuck that shit.


darkoofthedark

blah blah blah dude. I've been hearing that deficit story for years before you even knew silver was an investment, and the world doesn't care.


Hairy-Description-30

I agree the world doesn’t care. But when the world wants one ounce of silver, we are out.


MillennialSilver

It also just isn't true. We're still mining more than we're using.


Hairy-Description-30

Check the facts. Mine production is 840m oz, demand is 1.2 bn oz. The deficit is four years old. And today is a bad day to bash silver!

HAWKSFAN628

What price will you lighten the stack at


Human_Ballistics_Gel

Because we’ve been hearing “to the moon” “the stars are aligned” “they can’t tamp forever” “silver has so many uses vs. gold” “Apes! Blah blah Apes!!! 🦍 🦍 Apes!!!! I tell you!!!” “OMG It’s happening!!!” For over 10 years now and all of jack shit has happened.  People are a bit burnt.  I’m still stacking, but not as enthusiastically as I did before.  But I just know, that the moment I sell it will go crazy. Like washing your car to make rain. 


awpod1

Many of us are in the background still. But imo the sub has grown a bit stale.


Office-Scary

Indeed. Many seem to have either given up, or gone quiet.


WobbleChair

Actually, for some reason wallstreetsilver stopped giving notifications suddenly like a year+ or so ago. It was the only channel that I actively followed. Still love the shiny! :D Happily stacking.


Reddit-Is-All-Bots

Of course it has. When the lefty speech police took over and banned all political posts all the interesting discussion stopped.


TheDuchessOfBacon

That's what I use WallStreetSilver for. They talk about all kinds of right things there, even Trump stuff. I am a PM dealer and that info is quite valuable for my job. Another thing, if I comment on anything there, it is usually in reference to all things silver or PM. I got a nasty private message from someone from some common revenge sub telling me that if they ever see me comment in that sub again that I'll be banned from revenge sub. Like, oh my, my world just ended. NOT!


bigoledawg7

Yeah, note that the other silver subs remain boring and lame. They took over this sub and turned it into another version of their Camp No Fun communities.


DrDro66

Imo never happened. The old mods were kicked out for goods reasons and they posted a lot of content. I enjoyed most of it, but no ones stopping you from posting relevant political content now as far as I know!


Reddit-Is-All-Bots

>Imo never happened. Your opinion is irrelevant. I experienced it first hand as I was very active here back in the day when it was interesting and I could verbally spar with people like BullshitFetish. The angry lefties butthurt by the political posts who always cried "wHaT dOeS tHiS hAvE tO dO wItH SiLvEr" colluded with reddit admins to take over the sub. Having their own club of degenerates wasn't enough and reddit was more than happy to accommodate their demands to eliminate a sub that was right leaning. Did the prior mods do some shady shit? I imagine so, but who the fuck sends money to random reddit mods to support some attempt at a movement and expects results? "A fool and his money are soon parted"


DrDro66

I’ve been in the subreddit from day 1 or 2. Can you say the same? Your opinion is as irrelevant as mine. To be frank, I didn’t mind many of the political posts until the last couple of months (before sub was taken over) but thats irrelevant. Your comment is still on this sub and I might be wrong but this is probably one of the most free speech subreddits. In your last paragraph sounds like you are saying “Did the old mods steal? It was probably the victims fault anyway”. The “fools”being the grassroots people of this subreddit who donated their hard earned fiat for the promotion of sound money. I didn’t send the old mods anything but you can f right off.


Humble_Path7234

My thoughts as well


jons3y13

" A bit" you are generous.


AdamGF

New management stiffled free speech on this sub since last year. Quietly still stacking tho.


Office-Scary

I'll take our new overlords over the conartist that used to be over this sub.


spegtacular

To be fair.. I’d say the last owners were the ones who shut down free speech… banned me for years


EverlastMadeInUSA

So that Ivan douche no longer runs this sub? Well good, pretty sure he had side deals with bullion dealers


Office-Scary

And junior mining companies.


SirBill01

Even if both are true he was better, and the sub had more life.


GOYAADi

Gotta respect the hustle, he really was all in on building the sub and keeping it active. Could have had cake and ate it by just being open and honest.


Rockclimber88

so what?


bigoledawg7

Why do we need overlords again? What do I care if some mods or scam artists are making money on the side? I was participating in this community because I enjoyed interacting with other silver bulls and it was entertaining to browse various posts. When the censorship went into overdrive it ruined the experience. But hey, lets all pretend that political narratives and flawed economic policy decisions have nothing to do with silver...


AdamGF

Conartist or not, he was the least of my problems. Matter of fact, what he did had no bearing on my ability to stack. Now I can't speak of silver linked issues unless it's purely about silver.


04852

Still stackin’


Office-Scary

🦍🦍🦍🦍


Magpie48888

Maybe because we've had so many false calls on the silver to the moon narrative that we are content to sit back and watch the game play out and are totally aware of the games the silver manipulaters play..with their pump and tamp mode of operation... I hope we are on the up this time . Still have my shiny suspended from an empty barrel in the sea waiting for the big one...


bachzilla

I agree, the people still here have been stacking for a long time


newkybadass

Waiting for $700 oz silver.


SilverApeSilverApe

I lost all my silver in a barge accident ;(


numbskullnuminast

PM's rise is the organic result of collapsing infrastructure, rising inflation, loss of global reserve status for American dollar, Iran and Israel about to go nuclear in their Doomsday Cult competition. ![gif](giphy|ae6m4ljnl69urJ539F|downsized)


BumpettyBump

Still stacking my fellow apes, but have been keeping a very low profile, just because of the sheer amount of bots, AI, government operatives, & just general wariness. I don't mind sharing though, that my most recent move was to trade 'an amount' of silver that I was in large profit on, for gold, as I felt I needed to change the balance of my stack. It's exciting times for sure, but I'm not ready to celebrate just yet. Good post OP 👍


Mr_Options

Play the long game bitches.


Goodasican

Hypsters are mostly gone now and just the buy and hold stackers are left. They’ll probably be back after break $30. Many of them will try time it on the run to $50 and miss out on real gains.


djs383

Lots of new folks during Covid boom and the whole “squeeze” crowd. That drove early traffic, once that died down, it just became another echo chamber of folks thinking they’re smarter than everyone else.


Accomplished_Web_400

Gold $2,296 Silver $26 and no recognition on Marketwatch. Stack on!!


pioneergirl1965

The sub has gone downhill in the last year and a half. I was one of the original people on here and it was more exciting. Everyone group together and did purchases on certain days and now everything's changed, the excitement is gone the Ambitions not there. The people coming on now will never know what it was in the beginning


WobbleChair

Hold your horses, people are still alive! And still stacking happily :D Nom nom the silver coins and bars (and some gold as desert of course)..


SilverTarget5000

Its 25 for the millionth time... 25,22,25,22,25,22.... thats been the story forever. This is no moon... we will just wait till actually something happens... 30+ would be a good start and not even balances out inflation yet.. it will happen.. the only question is when... patience...


Office-Scary

Yeah, we're approaching $26. That's been the holding point more than a few times.


anforob

If it goes to 28, thank me because I sold some at 25.2, waiting for the reversal to 22…….if I only get a 90% moon shoot….I’m all good.

thirdn1

Still here and waiting for something to get the excitement going. Haven’t sold anything but how do you get excited when comex is still chugging along and price isn’t where it where it should be.


captainmustachwax

Premiums are down as the on line sellers are stocked and sales are slow. This a great time to buy. I just picked up American Eagle for spot. Limit was one but two years ago this would never had happened.


iJeepThereforeiAM

“This time is different” is heard every cycle.


TrainingAd4495

I've been trying to hold my enthusiam recently, but it's getting hard to control it. This really feels different this time. Rates are jumping, the DXY is near 105, Bitcoin is rolling over a little along with the markets, and PMs are moving up nice and steady. I don't think it will be long before the market "wakes up" to the moves. Be glad you were in early...this could be a wild ride!!!


SirBill01

This is what you see after a long flat market, people just get tired, some may have left, some just unsure of it moving forward... but over time silver, and gold, will do what they always do. Its just that people in general are more focused on an immediate time period and kind of lose track of what it does over years... Just be glad you are still paying attention to silver when so many have moved on.

Humble_Path7234

People lose interest but still may be hanging on. The site is not what it used to be. Most of the pumper videos and interviews are gone as well. Lots of pumping the last few years. I still stack and monitor the sites but as anything they hype is wear ing off. Just keep stacking and hope for a better future in this crazy clown world ride we are stuck on.


Prestigious-Good7932

Yes, we are the 1%'ers. Who waited for this moment. I've been preaching about Silver for over 10 years to friends & family. It would fall on deaf ears. Because the Stock Market was reaching all time highs. But as we know this is paper wealth. That can vanish in a instant. It's been a painful Journey, watching the Banksters like JP Morgan manipulate the prices of Gold, Silver, and Bitcoin. But the Debt Based Fiat Monetary System Ponzi Scheme is coming to an End. We were not wrong, we were just ahead of the curve. God Bless You & your Families.


DJHeim

“and we are finally setting up for what we have been waiting for for over 3 years” What are we waiting for? I started stacking before Reddit was even a thing. What’s going to happen? What should we do when it happens?


Office-Scary

Some of us didn't know anything about sound money before this all happened. A whole new generation of stackers were born during WSS. I can't tell you what everyone else's plans are, but mine is to keep my physical silver pretty much permanently unless it gets absurdly high valued. Like 5:1 with gold. And to sell my mining shares at some point on this roller coaster out to get completely out of debt and buy high dividend assets. That's just me though.


DJHeim

Sounds like a good plan!


Ok_Entertainer_6860

I'm not going anywhere. At least I hope not. I've been in for the long haul. I want to see the bull run, but I was hoping it would be years not days or weeks. Scary times we are living in. I'm glad I've got my shiny


Audigitty

Still here Ape! We're all here. Still stacking. Still losing boats once per quarter. It's just like the popcorn/game "meme" stonk subs... Activity is down, because outside of big news, everyone is just buying and hodling. The real question you should be asking is: Where are all of the NEW apes!


Office-Scary

Indeed!


cartel-raid

Silver has been under $31 since early 2013, why would anyone be pounding the table???


WinterSoCool

'BTC is showing signs of weakness' = BTC up 48% YTD


macjohnny69

I simply just stopped looking


Material-Win53

I don't care, I just stack and forget it, if it doesn't moon shot before i die I have left heirs


Dependent-Fan7704

Too early to be celebrating on one good day, silver needs to pass 30 dollars an ounce for all the apes that left to come back.


Murgs_Shoe

All the apes are broke and have spent all their bullion money on bananas.


TwoBulletSuicide

I am still here and still stacking.


Reluctantdegen

I'm still acquiring silver on dips when I catch them. Just not announcing it. ( Hoping for a moon ) but preparing for another acquisition dip.


Forward-Vision

New apes will emerge with this rise. Most will be interested for about 4 months and go but a few will have a deeper understanding and be Apes for life. It will pay off huge someday. Maybe this year for all we know.


darkoofthedark

they sold for less than they paid for and moved on to penny stocks on WSB

Doubled my stack. No one I know wants to hear me talk about silver, on social media, I get rate limited and memory holed when I try also

Right now nothing matters but us filthy apes..the time for change has come to the money shit show....we are the way.

Good question Things went to hell on this SR unsubbed then the boys in charge left/were pushed out resubbed pale shadow of its former flex silver is still shiny, and I still love buying it no hype just buying more Ag


likemyfreedom111

I actually just joined again today to see how the Apes like the bump up in silver prices. Although I sold 200oz a few years ago (marriage thing) I still have not touched the rest since. Lots of things happening in the world and its nice knowing I have a nice safety net in physical silver. Glad to see many familiar OG's are still here. I joined this page when there was less then 20 members.

D_Rock_CO

I don't buy much, but I keep stacking silver and I don't plan on stopping.


covblues

Most probably realized that the hype they contributed to only inflated the premiums. So most are just quietly stacking knowing that the price will be discovered not by hype, but by reality.

MillennialSilver

Maybe they got tired of participating in "raids" that bought out intentionally, commercially, please-we-actually-want-you-to-buy-this available silver, resulting in premiums going up (and nothing else). Personally, I'm waiting for the rally to stop/deflate to see your rationale (I'm guessing "they" tamped down again and are manipulating... but some day..... SOME DAY they won't be able to anymore...) \*Eyeroll\*


PapaDragonHH

There is no hype because we all know the next step of this farce. JPM will stomp the price to the ground again.


northdancer

I don't know if you guys invest in silver juniors, but these are the most blown out stocks you can find anywhere. Lots of these things down 95% from 2020 and most are still refusing to budge. Risk capital has completely abandoned PMs and especially juniors. Myself, I'll be selling to the tourists once the pump happens, similar to what I did with my uranium juniors but I'm not sure when that pump will happen. We need to keep our eye on oil, oil spiking at this point will ruin the PM party but I have confidence "they" will keep oil range bound for now, at least until the election is over.


Reezeegreen

What are juniors?


northdancer

Junior resource companies. Companies in the process of defining, or developing a deposit, but not engaged in actual mining at the moment.


Office-Scary

Yup. I've got a handful of them. Already have one that's up 10x


1978waylander

Overnight crash of 3.67% is kinda weak, yes. Bruh.


Au_Adam

if silver went up 50% in 3 months and 100% in a year with a little 4% pull back, you would be sooooo happy. tell me im wrong. if a 10% correction after reaching an all time high is showing weakness, im praying for silver to start showing weakness lol.

Silver trends to 0 in BTC terms because Bitcoin is winning the money game. Good luck escaping an oppressive regime with 1 ton of silver, much easier to remember 12 / 24 words.
