The Silver futures price has torn through every major resistance level this year, delivering one of its strongest annual performances in more than a decade. And it sucks, because the only time silver got a headline that I saw is when they called it the “Devil’s metal”. Meanwhile, every ATH for

It’s why we have permanent anti-silver shills on Twitter. But that stops now! (and who knows, maybe we’ll get more popular silver-backed cryptos)
Silver has now surged more than 120% year to date, outpacing gold, copper, and virtually every cryptocurrency besides Zcash and other privacy coins. However, despite the vertical rally, 99Bitcoins strategists say the move isn’t over yet.
Ajay Bagga, a veteran market analyst, put it bluntly: “Silver is gold on steroids.”

Will Silver Futures Price Pump Into 2026? Industrial Demand Turns Silver Into a Macro Engine
Unlike gold, which lives and dies by monetary policy and risk sentiment, silver is chained to global industry. And 2025 has handed it a perfect storm of catalysts.
Solar demand alone has tripled over the last decade, even as per-panel silver efficiency improved. Electric vehicles use up to 80% more silver than traditional engines. Meanwhile, data center capacity has exploded, from roughly 1 gigawatt in 2000 to more than 50 gigawatts today. That trend is feeding directly into the metal’s price.

Roughly 80 percent of silver is mined as a byproduct of copper, zinc, lead, and gold. You can’t throttle up output without moving an entirely different market.
Renisha Chainani of Augmont confirmed the pressure: “Tightening stocks, strong industrial demand, and persistent delivery issues are supporting the rally.”
With silver is already up significantly on the year, 99Bitcoins analysts would not recommend allocating more than 10 percent to gold and silver combined.
Macro Winds Still Favor Silver Heading Into 2026
FRED data shows real yields rolling over again. ETF inflows into silver have flipped positive for the first time since 2021. Treasury yields continue to soften as the Fed positions for additional cuts next year.
Silver hasn’t peaked, but the rally might slow. Silver still has room to run, but the rally now demands discipline, not adrenaline.
