Bitcoin Breakout Not Just Hype—$4.4B Inflows Back The Move
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Bitcoin has set a new all-time high (ATH) above $112,000, and if on-chain data is to go by, there is some real conviction behind the move. Bitcoin Realized Cap Shows ATH Breakout Not Just Speculative In a new post on X, the on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has talked about the latest trend in the “Realized Cap” of Bitcoin. The Realized Cap is a capitalization model that calculates the asset’s total value by assuming that the ‘true’ value of each coin in circulation is equal to the price at which it was last transacted on the network. This is different from the methodology that the usual market cap employs, where all tokens part of the supply are assigned the same value: the current Bitcoin spot price. The last transaction of any token is likely to represent the last time that it changed hands on the network, so the price at that time could be considered as its current cost basis. Since the Realized Cap sums up this value for all coins, its value essentially represents a net cost basis for the entire supply. In other words, the model can be looked at as a measure of the amount of capital that the investors as a whole have put into the cryptocurrency. In contrast, the market cap is the value that the holders are carrying in the present. During the past day, the Bitcoin market cap saw a surge as the spot price set a new record. But what about the Realized Cap? “Unlike market cap, Realized Cap reflects actual capital inflows – only rising when coins move at higher prices,” notes the analytics firm. Here is the chart shared by Glassnode, showing whether or not real capital inflows occurred for Bitcoin with this rally: As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin Realized Cap has been following an upward trajectory for a while now, suggesting capital inflows have been coming into the asset. With the latest price surge, too, the metric has seen a leg up, corresponding to a whopping $4.4 billion flowing into the coin. “The $4.4B jump as $BTC broke a new ATH above $112K confirms real conviction behind the move, not just speculative markup,” explains the analytics firm. In some other news, the Bitcoin Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) Ratio is currently sitting around the 2.25 mark, as CryptoQuant author Axel Adler Jr has pointed out in an X post. The MVRV Ratio measures the ratio between the Bitcoin market cap and Realized Cap. From the chart, it’s visible that BTC encountered resistance the last few times the metric hit a value around 2.75. Right now, the 2.75 level corresponds to a spot price of $130,900. “This will essentially be the first selling pressure point,” says the analyst. BTC Price Bitcoin has seen some pullback since its ATH as its price has come back down to $110,900. - Hoje

XRP Flashes Signal That Last Time Preceded A 464% Rally, Analyst Says
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
In a new video released June 9, crypto analyst CryptoInsightUK issued a extremely bullish XRP update, citing a convergence of technical signals that he believes could set the stage for a powerful upward move. Drawing parallels to previous market cycles, the analyst points to the reappearance of a signal that once preceded a 464% rally in XRP, and says this may mark the beginning of a similar explosive breakout. XRP Breakout Confirmed? Yesterday, XRP recorded its highest 4-hour close since May 23, breaking out of a prolonged range. The token has entered what he called a “dense area of liquidity,” an important technical zone that has historically preceded impulsive price action. In a notable divergence from typical market dynamics, XRP is leading Bitcoin, rather than following it. “XRP is currently leading Bitcoin on this move,” he said. “Something I’ve been calling for a while is for XRP to lead alts and lead a potential alt season.” CryptoInsightUK sees further confirmation in Bitcoin’s setup. BTC is still consolidating but pushing above the $111,000 liquidity zone. A move into that zone, he said, would “give us confluence that the price action XRP’s displaying is not a fakeout.” Structurally, XRP’s trend remains intact. Despite recent pullbacks, the token has maintained its higher-low formation, a signal of technical strength. More importantly, XRP/BTC is beginning to show momentum reversal. “We’ve just had the highest 4-hour close since the 24th of May. This is showing the momentum to the downside is waning.” He highlights a specific line on the XRP/BTC chart referenced by fellow analyst Credible Crypto as the “Gandalf line”—a level that has acted as a pivot point for years. XRP has now closed above it on the 4-hour chart. “We’ve wicked into it, bounced off it. We lose it, we get pushed down hard. We break it, we normally really go for it.” Zooming out, he points to the weekly RSI (Relative Strength Index) on XRP’s price chart. If the current weekly candle closes above the RSI’s simple moving average, it would be the first time since XRP’s breakout off the lows—an event that previously triggered a 464% move to $2.70. “If we get the bullish cross close… 464% from this [level] would take us to $13.05,” he explained. “I think we’re going to about $12 on this push.” Moreover, the analyst anticipates a 325% move in XRP/BTC based on historical ratios and a potential surge in XRP dominance toward 14%, with an even more aggressive Elliott Wave count pointing to a possible move to 20% dominance. “We’ve completed a Wyckoff accumulation. We’re in the sign of strength phase. Last point support… we’re going into phase E,” he said, referencing classical technical accumulation structures. Still, despite the bullish setup, the analyst made clear he plans to de-risk between $8 and $13, emphasizing capital preservation after a potential 20x move from 50 cents. “The risk-to-reward on the downside is just too large at that point,” he noted. “Even if it goes significantly higher… anyone who’s done a 20x on something should be taking some money off the table.” He concluded the analysis with cautious optimism: “Don’t start counting your Lambos yet, but also probably start scrolling the magazine.” For now, all eyes are on XRP’s price action and Bitcoin’s staying power above $111,000. If both confirm, as he put it: “It’s game on.” At press time, XRP traded at $2.44. -
Analyst Mocks Calls For XRP Price At $1,000, Says Take Profits At This Level
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Crypto analyst Jaydee has called out market participants who predict that the XRP price could rally to as high as $1,000. The analyst suggested that the altcoin can’t reach such heights and revealed what price levels he will be taking profits at. Analyst Indicates XRP Price Cannot Reach $1,000 In an X post, Jaydee stated that while the “moonboys and influencers: are waiting for the XRP price to reach $1,000, he plans to take more profits at his next levels. He declared that he plans to use the same strategy he employed when he called the 12x at $3.37. The analyst admitted that the altcoin is going much higher soon but suggested that those waiting for $1,000 will still get “rekt.” Related Reading: Analyst Predicts XRP Price Will Reach $20-$30 — Elliott Wave Theory Holds The Key Jaydee further remarked that they “dumb money to HODL till $1,000 for us smart money to win big.” His statement comes just a day after crypto pundit BarriC predicted that the XRP price will rally to $1,000 sooner than many expect. He further suggested that the rally will be similar to how XRP recorded an explosive surge in 2017, when it rallied from $0.0006 to $3.80. However, Jaydee doesn’t expect this to happen. Instead, his accompanying chart showed that the XRP price could just rally to a conservative target of around $7 between August and September. This would still mark a new all-time high (ATH) for the altcoin. The crypto analyst also recently predicted a 50% “moonshot” for the XRP price, which could send it to as high as $3.35 in the short term. A rally to $3.35 will bring the altcoin close to its current ATH of $3.80. It would also mark a new yearly high for the altcoin. XRP Is Bullish On All Timeframes In an X post, crypto analyst Dark Defender declared that the XRP price is bullish on all timeframes for the first time since January 2025, when it reached its yearly high of $3.3. In another X post, the analyst stated that XRP is way ahead, having recorded a breakout above $2.33. With this breakout, he remarked that the altcoin’s journey to its all-time high has begun. Related Reading: XRP Price Closes Highest Quarterly Candle In History Dark Defender’s accompanying chart showed that the XRP price could surpass its current ATH of $3.80 and rally to $4.2. This price surge is expected to happen between now and September, providing a bullish outlook for the altcoin. Crypto analyst CasiTrades also highlighted how bullish the break above $2.30 was for XRP. She claimed that the altcoin could reach as high as $3.04 on this leg up. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.42, up almost 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. -
Sentiment has been once again broadly positive, despite not being the most optimistic we've had after the consecutive weeks of strictly euphoric mood. We've had a few comments from FED members after yesterday's FOMC Minutes release, with Musalem coming up with some hawkish comments on effects of Tariffs while Waller and Daly decided to overlook the long-term impact of a one time rise, tilting more dovish. It is normal towards the end of a Central Bank Cycle to get some diverging views, but this one is tricky, with particularly new conditions in the United States. On the other side of the world, Pacific currencies in the AUD and NZD have had a decent run higher despite some rise in the USD – this comes after the surprise pause at the most recent RBA meeting, participants are starting to look at potentially more hawkishness by Pacific CBs and a still not-too-bad global outlook, helping such commodity currencies. Cryptos are blazing hot in today's session, in another market turn towards tech (particularly cryptocurrencies – Nasdaq has for the first time this week underperformed other indices). Bitcoin is currently marking new all-time highs (trading above 113,000), Ethereum is above $2,800 and other altcoins are loving it.

Troilus lands second offtake deal with major European copper producer
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Troilus Gold (TSX: TLG) has entered into a commercial offtake agreement for its flagship copper-gold project with Swedish miner Boliden. This marks Troilus’ second offtake arrangement with an established European copper producer, having also agreed terms with Germany’s Aurubis AG recently. Together, these partnerships further validate the quality of Troilus’ anticipated concentrate and highlight the project’s strategic importance within the European critical minerals supply chain, the company stated in a press release. Troilus is currently focused on bringing the former copper-gold mine of the same name in north-central Quebec back into production. The historic mine located in Val-d’Or district had previously produced nearly 70,000 tonnes of copper between 1996 and 2010. Large copper asset With mineral reserves of 6 million oz. gold, 484 million lb. copper and 12 million oz. silver, the Troilus project represents one of the largest undeveloped copper-gold assets in North America. As outlined in its 2024 feasibility study, the restarted mine is expected to have average annual production of approximately 135.4 million lb. in copper equivalent, or 75,000 wet metric tonnes of concentrate containing payable copper, gold and silver. “We are proud to welcome one of Europe’s most respected mining and smelting companies as an offtake partner, renewing a long-standing relationship that began during Troilus’ past-producing years, when Boliden processed some of the site’s original concentrate,” Justin Reid, CEO of Troilus Gold, commented on the new partnership. As with the Aurubis offtake, the agreement with Boliden is expected be made binding upon completion of the project’s broader $700 million debt financing package, which is being structured by a syndicate of global financial institutions including Société Générale, KfW IPEX-Bank and Export Development Canada. The financing is also expected to receive support from European export credit agencies including those from Finland and Sweden. Environmental review Last month, Troilus’ project reached a major milestone after the company submitted its environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) with both the Quebec and Canadian governments. The ESIA, which follows five years of studies and community engagement, “not only derisks the project, but also reinforces our long-standing commitment to sustainable development,” Reid said in a June 26 release. It is anticipated that final decisions of the ESIA review will be made by year-end 2026. Shares of Troilus Gold traded 0.7% higher at C$0.70 apiece by market close Thursday, for a market capitalization of nearly C$280 million. -
Bitcoin reaches fresh all-time high in market-wide breakout — what’s next?
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
A thesis of failed opportunities by sellers to send the crypto market to correct lower had been a sign of a potential move to new all-time highs, which just happened today. Cryptocurrencies are in a frenzy, and this happens after months of muted performance and range-bound markets despite the cryptos’ tendency to generate lots of market movement. A general trend of entries from financial institutions into Cryptocurrencies, allowed by progressively lenient regulations, is bringing non-negligible flows and adding an even more solid backstop demand to digital assets. Traditional investors are progressively entering the most recent primary market through ETFs, with the latest ETF launch opening the door for Solana. This comes amid market participants trying to diversify from the US Dollar. Trump’s frantic policy is creating significant uncertainty, particularly for the Federal Reserve, which is seeing chances to lose some of its political independence. The US President is doing the most to influence the FED board members, regularly insulting Jerome Powell on his Truth Social.

The Hidden Clue In Bitcoin Hourly Close: A Breakout Brewing?
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Bitcoin’s latest hourly close may be offering more than meets the eye. With the 25- and 50-hour SMAs holding firm and the MACD showing renewed expansion, some analysts believe a breakout could be quietly brewing, and smart traders are starting to take notice. BTC’s Momentum Builds With Healthy Technical Backing In his latest 1-hour market update, Shaco AI noted that Bitcoin continues to humor the bulls, printing a strong close at $111,225.5. The price action has maintained a clear bullish bias, staying well above both the 25-hour simple moving average (SMA) at $110,147 and the 50-hour SMA at $109,420. This positioning suggests that BTC is building a solid base for continuation, with short-term trend followers likely remaining confident in the move. Furthermore, the MACD has widened impressively, with a gain of $589.72, reflecting persistent buying pressure and bullish sentiment. As the MACD histogram expands and signal lines diverge, it reinforces the idea that the bulls may be far from done, and dips could be viewed as buying opportunities. Shaco AI also pointed to the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which now sits at 63.73. This level shows that the market is in a healthy bullish zone, strong enough to maintain upward momentum, but not yet in overbought territory that typically invites profit-taking or cooling off. Adding confidence to the trend, the Average Directional Index (ADX) has hit 38.93, which Shaco AI emphasized as a key confirmation that the current trend has strength and durability. With all key indicators pointing to continued bullish structure, supported by rising momentum, trend alignment, and strong directional force, Bitcoin’s short-term technical picture remains decisively positive. The bulls are in control, and the chart suggests they may not be done pushing just yet. Breakout Or Breakdown? Bitcoin Poised At A Technical Crossroads Shaco AI, in his final remarks, highlighted that Bitcoin is approaching critical territory, marking resistance at $111,999.79 and support at $108,096.55 as the key zones to watch. He urged traders to “watch these like a hawk!” as price action around these levels could be decisive in determining BTC’s next major move. He also pointed out that trading volume has been unusually quiet, joking that it “seems to have missed some coffee breaks,” with just 395 units recorded compared to the average of 869. This lighter volume signals reduced conviction, which could lead to sudden volatility or fakeouts near those key zones. “Keep those eyes peeled for potential breakouts or retracements as BTC flirts with key levels, but do remember there’s caution in the air with this lighter trading volume,” the expert added. -
Navoi saw first half output value double on higher gold prices
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Navoi Mining & Metallurgical Company (NMMC) has reported gold production of nearly 1.54 million oz. for the first six months of 2025, a slight increase on the 1.52 million oz. from a year ago. Its first-half production value, however, doubled over the comparable six-month period to around $4.7 billion, owing to the increase in gold prices over the past year. The Uzbek gold miner currently operates a dozen mines across the Navoi, Samarkand and Jizzakh regions. Its portfolio is headlined by Muruntau, the largest open-pit gold deposit with a resource base of over 100 milllion oz. To improve the efficiency at its mines, NMMC has been implementing multiple capital projects, including a Phase 5 mine development at Muruntau that could boost ore deliveries from the site to one of its processing plants. The company says that these production optimization efforts in H1 2025 helped to yield cost savings of $139.6 million. During the second quarter, NMMC completed a $500 million corporate bond placement on the London Stock Exchange to fund its operations. -
Is Solana About To Break Out? Key Levels And Indicators Say Watch Closely
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Solana is exhibiting strong bullish signs supported by moving averages, volume, and momentum indicators, which hint at a short-term pause or consolidation in the rally. What Bulls Need To Watch To Sustain The Rally In an X post, Gemxbt stated that the Solana 1-hour chart has displayed a bullish market structure, with the price trading above the 5, 10, and 20-day moving averages. The indication of short-term moving averages signals strong upward momentum, which shows that buyers are in control. The recent price action has been supported by notable volume spikes, confirming the strength behind the upward moves and adding credibility to the rally. The key resistance is around $154, where SOL has previously faced selling pressure. This zone will determine whether bullish momentum can push the price higher. On the downside, support is sitting near $150, which is acting as a cushion to absorb any immediate selling pressure and prevent a deeper pullback. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is approaching overbought territory, which may signal that the asset is due for a period of consolidation or sideways movement before continuing its climb. Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has recently shown a bullish crossover, reinforcing the uptrend and suggesting the upward momentum could continue if buying interest persists. Crypto investor and trader Theodor Coin also revealed that the Solana 1-hour chart is showing a clear recovery after the dip seen in early July. The open interest is trending upward and has now surpassed $3.62 billion. An increase here typically indicates growing trader market engagement, which is a precursor to heightened volatility and significant price moves. From here, a breakout above the $154 resistance could unleash a powerful rally fueled by the increasing market interest and positive momentum. Uptrend Line Remains Intact — A Positive Sign A crypto analyst known as Day on X also updated that Solana is holding above the long-term support area around $120 on the weekly chart, a level that has been a launchpad for rallies. The long-term uptrend line remains intact, and with each higher low, the case for a massive cup-and-handle pattern becomes stronger. However, this pattern won’t confirm until SOL breaks above the critical $250 resistance zone, a level that capped price action during the previous rally. If SOL manages to break out above the $250 zone, it could unlock a measured move price target of $500, which marks a milestone in Solana’s recovery and expansion. The analyst also noted that SOL is not there yet, and that the first step for bulls is reclaiming $185 resistance level, which has consistently rejected upside attempts. -
Copper mine output to rise 2.9% annually over next decade, says Fitch’s BMI
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Global copper mine production is set to rise by an average annual rate of 2.9% over the next decade, growing from 23.8 million tonnes in 2025 to 30.9 million tonnes in 2034, according to a new report by Fitch Solutions’ BMI. This production growth, says BMI, is largely down to several new projects and expansions coming online, supported by historically elevated copper prices and a positive demand outlook. This year, BMI estimates global copper mine output to rise 2.5% as production in Chile recovers and the giant Oyu Tolgoi mine in Mongolia ramps up. Those in Peru, Russia and Zambia will also remain among the major contributors, it adds. The Fitch unit cites data from the International Copper Study Group showing a 2% year-on-year output rise during the January-April period, backed by higher production from the Las Bambas, Quellaveco and Toromocho sites in Peru, the Kamoa-Kakula mine in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the aforementioned Oyu Tolgoi project. Credit: Fitch Solutions However, this 2025 growth projection was revised down to reflect the reduced guidance at Kamoa-Kakula, which was recently impacted by seismic activity. The Fitch unit also highlights the downside risks flagged by major miners such as Glencore and Anglo American. Still, many others, including top producer Codelco, have set a positive outlook to support higher global production. Chile to remain leader Regionally, BMI expects Chile to remain the dominant force in the copper supply chain, with output growing at 3% in 2025 to 5.7 million tonnes, accounting for a quarter of the global mine production. A major contributor to Chile’s increase is the continued ramp-up at Teck’s Quebrada Blanca site, which would offset some of the challenges faced at the state-owned Codelco. In the long term, it says Chile’s outlook remains positive “despite a range of factors that could limit investment in the sector over the coming years,” as the nation’s vast critical mineral reserves will encourage future investment as demand rises alongside the acceleration of the green energy transition. The DRC is also expected to see 3% growth, though downside risks remain due to Kamoa-Kakula’s reduced guidance. Peru, meanwhile, is forecast to see 3.2% growth, recovering from a 1% decline in 2024. -
USD/CAD Eyes Gains as WTI Oil Slips. 1.3750 Incoming?

Most Read: S&P 500, Dow Jones Q3 Outlook: Tariffs, Tech, and Small Cap Concerns USD/CAD has been on a grind off late having finally broken out of a brief period of consolidation thanks in part to a moderate US Dollar recovery and stalling Oil prices. USD/CAD has however, failed to find acceptance above the 1.3700 handle thus far and this may be something to note for bulls moving forward. Client Sentiment Data - USD/CAD Looking at OANDA client sentiment data and market participants are short on USDCAD with 57% of traders net-short. I prefer to take a contrarian view toward crowd sentiment and thus the fact that so many traders are short means USD/CAD prices could rise in the near-term. However a 57%-43% is not really a major difference and may be seen as a sign of the indecisiveness from both bulls and bears who seem unsure about USD/CADs next direction.

Osisko opens door to enlarging Gaspé copper deposit in Quebec
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Osisko Metals (TSX: OM) hinted it may enlarge the deposit at its flagship Gaspé polymetallic project in Quebec after reporting drill results as high as 108 metres grading 0.84% copper and 3.35 grams silver per tonne. That intercept, from 417 metres depth in hole 30-1090, also included 11.9 metres at 0.84% copper and 7.79 grams silver from 433 metres downhole, Osisko said Thursday. Another highlight hole, 30-1081, cut 301.8 metres averaging 0.41% copper and 3.36 grams silver from 94 metres downhole. “Today’s results show consistency of mineralization across both infill and expansion areas,” National Bank Financial mining analyst Rabi Nizami said in a note. “We anticipate the pace of exploration and news flow to accelerate during the summer months ahead, with nine rigs now actively upgrading and expanding mineralization well past the 2024 resource.” The results, among eight holes, are part of a fully funded 110,000-metre drill program that Osisko is carrying out at Gaspé. The company is working to expand the resource with a view to potentially reopening the former Noranda mine in Murdochville, about 825 km northeast of Montreal. It’s targeting permits and construction by the early 2030s, with initial capital spending estimated at about C$1.8 billion. Unconstrained resource Gaspé hosts an indicated resource of 824 million tonnes grading 0.27% copper, 0.015% molybdenum and 1.74 grams silver for contained metal of 2.23 million tonnes of copper, 124,000 tonnes of molybdenum and 46 million oz. of silver, according to an estimate released in November. The inferred resource is estimated at 670 million tonnes grading 0.3% copper, 0.02% molybdenum and 1.37 grams silver for contained metal of 1.99 million tonnes of copper, 133,000 tonnes of molybdenum and 29.5 million oz. of silver. The project’s resource, “which is already among the largest in North America, remains unconstrained and is likely to be upgraded to measured and indicated and also expanded further” in next year’s first quarter, Nizami added. The new results “continue to confirm the large-scale potential of mineralization at Gaspé Copper,” CEO Robert Wares said in a statement. He touted “the excellent prospects for increasing the size of the known deposit towards the south.” Osisko shares rose 1.2% to C$0.425 in early afternoon trading in Toronto Thursday, giving the company a market value of about C$259 million. -
Trump Family’s WLFI Token: Experts Bullish On $5 Price Projection Post-Launch
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
World Liberty Financial, a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform backed by President Donald Trump and his family, is poised to launch its WLFI token, which could hold significant profits for early investors. WLFI Token Launch Approaches The company announced on July 4 that it has initiated steps to have its flagship token listed on cryptocurrency exchanges, marking a crucial milestone after months of anticipation. The WLFI token, which was introduced last year as a non-transferable governance token, is designed to facilitate community voting on the project’s future direction. Secondary market trading has already commenced on platforms like Whales.market and MEXC, where WLFI has recently traded between $0.13 to $0.18, a notable increase from its initial sale prices of $1.5 and $0.5. According to the project’s white paper, entities affiliated with the Trump family may collectively hold about one-third of WLFI’s total supply of 100 billion tokens. At current prices, these holdings could represent billions of dollars on paper. Bruno Ver, market expert and investor in the WLFI token, expressed optimism about its potential value, predicting it could reach between $2 and $5 in the near future. If the token were to climb to $2, the stake held by the founding entities could theoretically be worth around $60 billion, making it one of the most lucrative Trump-related crypto ventures to date. Recent estimates suggest that crypto businesses have already added approximately $620 million to Donald Trump’s personal net worth, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Experts Warn Of Risks Despite the enthusiasm surrounding WLFI, the White House has emphasized that President Trump is distanced from his business interests, having placed his assets in a family-controlled trust. The current proposal for token release, dated July 4, aims to unlock a portion of tokens held by “early supporters,” although the term lacks a specific definition within the documentation. Remaining tokens, including those held by founders and team members, would be subject to future votes and longer lock-up periods to signal a commitment to the project. The proposal is expected to undergo discussion and voting on the Snapshot platform, with a potential timeline extending into August. However, experts caution that the path to a successful launch might come with risks for early holders. Lex Sokolin, managing partner at Generative Ventures, pointed out that tokens with substantial founder and investor allocations often experience significant price declines over time. World Liberty Financial’s token launch and the Trump family’s increased interest in digital assets comes on the heels of notable regulatory changes in the US as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has adopted a more lenient stance toward crypto. This may signal a sense of confidence from WLFI regarding regulatory scrutiny. Hilary Allen, a law professor at American University, noted that this shift suggests WLFI no longer perceives a threat from the SEC. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com -
The Canadian Dollar has had a rough year against the Euro, as the joined currency had been printing its best performance in years against its G10 counterparts – A return of the US Dollar is in the building and it is propping upwards North-American currencies in the start of the Second Half of 2025. After coming close to its 2018 highs, a daily engulfing bearish candle led to a full-handle pullback in EURCAD. With the ECB attaining the end of its cutting cycle, joining the Bank of Canada which expedited its own cutting cycle due to a struggling Canadian Economy, both interest rates for the Euro and CAD are close to parity (2.75% Canadian Main Rate vs 2.15% ECB Refinancing Rate) – This is leading to a fundamental top to interest rate relative strength.

Blue Lagoon Resources (CSE: BLLG; OTCQB: BLAGF) reopened the Dome Mountain mine in British Columbia on Wednesday, more than 30 years after the last major exploration activity at the gold-silver property. Located just 50 minutes from Smithers in northwestern BC, the project marks a significant shift for the company from exploration to production. In February 2025, Blue Lagoon received its mining and effluent/discharge permits from the BC government, making it one of only nine companies to receive such approvals in the province since 2015. Following the opening ceremony on Wednesday, shares of Blue Lagoon Resources rose 3.13% to C$0.66 apiece, giving the company a market capitalization of C$92.91 million ($67.87 million). Once the water treatment plant is fully operational, Blue Lagoon is targeting production of approximately 150 tonnes per day, totaling 55,000 tonnes annually, with an expected recovery of around 15,000 ounces of gold in the first year. First blasting is expected in August, with initial gold production anticipated in September. The company expects to reach full capacity before the end of the year. Mining will begin at the Boulder Vein above the 1290m level using a mechanized cut-and-fill method. “Over the past few years, we have strategically invested more than $30 million into Dome Mountain, ensuring that when we reached this milestone, we would be ready to move forward with minimal additional capital requirements,” President and CEO Rana Vig said in a February 12 shareholder letter. “Now, with just approximately $3 million in additional CapEx, we will be in a position to begin mining operations – a remarkably low cost compared to industry norms.” Ore will be brought to the surface and stored before being trucked to Nicola Mining’s toll-milling facility in Merritt under an active agreement. Waste rock will remain underground. The project benefits from year-round road access and a newly commissioned water treatment plant. Blue Lagoon remains debt-free, with the upcoming ramp-up funded in part through a recently closed financing of nearly $5 million. The company also has $3.6 million in the money warrants and access to an unsecured credit line from its toll mill partner, Nicola Mining. Community engagement and upside Local support has been central to Dome Mountain’s revival. Four of the ten current site workers are members of the Lake Babine First Nation, on whose traditional territory the project is located. As part of its agreement with the Indigenous community, the company will provide scholarships to train Indigenous youth for underground mining roles. “It’s a great opportunity to learn underground for the First Nations… There’s a great opportunity to teach our young people what underground is so we can all work together as one,” said Brenda Patrick, a Lake Babine Nation employee at the site, in an interview with MINING.com. Pathway to expansion The current mine plan spans five years, focused solely on the permitted Boulder Vein area. However, Blue Lagoon plans to pursue additional permits to mine deeper zones below the 1290m level and expand into the nearby Argillite Vein. This next phase could significantly increase production if exploration results prove favorable. The mine’s existing infrastructure and regulatory progress position it well for phased growth. According to chief geologist Bill Cronk, the property has substantial “blue sky” potential, with 15 high-grade quartz carbonate veins identified and 90% of the 21,000-hectare site still unexplored. Legacy project revived Gold mineralization on the property dates back to the late 1800s, and considerable surface and underground work had already been completed by 1923–1924. Renewed exploration in the 1980s led to the discovery of the Boulder Vein system in 1985 by Noranda. Underground mining occurred briefly in the early 1990s under a joint venture between Timmins Nickel and Habsburg Resources. When operations ceased in May 1993, the mine had produced approximately 43,900 tonnes of ore at an average grade of 0.35 oz/ton gold. The most recent project owner, Gavin Mines, held the property for 12 years, completing much of the infrastructure and underground development. In total, more than $80 million has been spent on the project by previous owners, including Gavin Mines, Timmins Nickel, and Noranda. Blue Lagoon acquired the project in 2020 and has since focused on drilling and developing the Boulder Vein system.

Ripple CEO Wants To Take Over SWIFT’s Customers — Centrals Banks Tap In
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Ripple’s ambitions in the global payments space have grown louder and more direct, as its CEO Brad Garlinghouse, openly stated at APEX 2025 that the company is aiming to take over SWIFT’s customer base. The commentary follows Ripple’s long-term strategy to shift global banking infrastructure away from legacy systems to the blockchain-based XRP Ledger. Meanwhile, central banks are increasingly taking note, with recent reports revealing that the capacity of Ripple’s network is currently being studied alongside SWIFT’s systems in experiments. Garlinghouse Sets Sights On SWIFT’s Market Share Speaking at the APEX summit, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse declared that Ripple’s goal is not only to compete with SWIFT but to replace its role in moving money on the global scale. According to Garlinghouse, although SWIFT is very dominant in messaging, the most important thing is the liquidity that banks can provide. “I think less about the messaging and more about liquidity,” he said. Ripple is targeting this deeper infrastructure among banks, which is the actual movement of value. Interestingly, Garlinghouse asserted that Ripple plans to capture up to 14% of SWIFT’s current cross-border volume within five years. That’s a bold number, especially considering the scale at which SWIFT currently operates. Recent estimates show that SWIFT currently facilitates more than 45 million financial messages and handles around $5 trillion in money transfers daily. Even a 14% share of that market would represent hundreds of billions of dollars in value flowing through Ripple’s ecosystem, which would create a significant demand for XRP in the process. Central Banks Are Tapping In Garlinghouse’s comments come at a time when institutional momentum appears to be shifting in Ripple’s favor. Interestingly, Ripple’s global push is not limited to private sector partnerships. A crypto enthusiast on the social media platform X known as Finance Bull recently drew attention to growing central bank interest in blockchain-based payment infrastructure. Unsurprisingly, Ripple’s technology is the key focus to this growing interest. Ripple’s xCurrent solution, which is built on the Interledger Protocol (ILP), was recently studied alongside SWIFT’s gpi system as part of Project Stella. Project Stella is a collaborative research initiative by the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan. Basically, what this means is that central banks are starting to look into Ripple’s technology, which says a lot about the ecosystem’s outlook in the coming years. The fact that two of the world’s most influential central banks reviewed Ripple’s infrastructure alongside SWIFT is a signal that XRP’s utility is now being evaluated at the core of global monetary policy discussions. These developments closely align with what many fervent XRP supporters have long believed. There have been recurring predictions among the community’s most confident voices that XRP’s price is destined to move far beyond its current all-time high of $3.40. Some technical analyses have predicted double-digit prices for XRP. Other predictions for the XRP price are as high as $1,000. -
Fatalities rise for second year in global mining sector
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
The International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) has released its latest annual safety report, revealing an increase in fatalities across the 24 companies it groups in 2024. ICMM members, which represent about one-third of the global mining and metals industry, reported 42 worker deaths last year—up from 36 in 2023 and 33 in 2022. The data marks a troubling reversal in what had been a long-term downward trend in fatalities. Nine of the 42 deaths were linked to mobile equipment and transportation incidents, while five resulted from fall-of-ground accidents. South Africa saw the highest number of fatalities, with 15 deaths, accounting for 35% of the total. Despite the overall increase, nine member companies reported zero fatalities in 2024. Source: ICMM Safety Performance Report 2024. (Click on it to enlarge) “No one should have to risk their life to do their job. This remains our irrevocable starting point, our standard, and our shared responsibility,” president and chief executive Rohitesh Dhawan said. In response to the rising numbers, ICMM is revising its guidance on critical control management to better reflect current operational risks. The council is also pushing forward with its Innovation for Cleaner, Safer Vehicles (ICSV) initiative, which aims to eliminate fatalities from vehicle interactions by accelerating the adoption of safer technology. Source: ICMM Safety Performance Report 2024. Alongside physical safety, ICMM is expanding its focus on psychological health and safety, recognizing their deep connection. It is also enhancing transparency and peer learning by creating new ways for member companies to share lessons from fatal incidents more effectively. ICMM, which represents miners including BHP, Rio Tinto, Anglo American, Newmont and Teck, has published safety data annually since 2012 as part of its commitment to accountability and continuous improvement across the industry. -
Taseko more than doubles value of Yellowhead project near Gibraltar
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Taseko Mines (TSX: TKO; NYSE-A: TGB; LSE: TKO) has released an updated technical report for the Yellowhead project in British Columbia that confirms its potential to become a Tier 1 copper asset similar to its Gibraltar mine nearby. The report, published in compliance with NI 43-101 standards, envisions the Yellowhead as a 90,000-tonne-per-day open pit mine that would run for 25 years, producing 178 million lb. of copper annually at cash costs of $1.90 per lb. Over the first five years, average production could reach 206 million lb. at $1.62 per pound. The mine’s after-tax net present value, using an 8% discount rate and metals prices of $4.25/lb. copper, $2,400/oz. gold and $28.00/oz. silver., is pegged at C$2 billion, with an internal rate of return of 21%. The initial capital cost is also estimated at C$2 billion, with a payback period of 3.3 years. Stuart McDonald, CEO of Taseko, says the new technical report “establishes Yellowhead as a world-class copper project in a tier one jurisdiction,” with potential to become one of the largest on the continent. The economics mark a significant improvement on the previous technical report published in 2020, which showed a C$700 million after-tax NPV and 14% IRR. The new report took into account updated capital and operating cost estimates, while maintaining the same reserve estimate of 817 million tonnes grading 0.29% copper equivalent. Taseko Mines opened Thursday’s session 3.2% higher at C$4.77 per share, for a market capitalization of C$1.5 billion. Similar to Gibraltar The report release comes days after Taseko commenced its environmental assessment process by filing the project description with both British Columbia’s Environmental Assessment Office and the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada. The Yellowhead project is located approximately 150 km north of Kamloops, BC, within the territory of the Simpcw First Nation. Since acquiring the property in 2019, Taseko said it has worked closely with Simpcw leadership to better understand community priorities and interests and to inform the Yellowhead project description. “It’s been just six years since we acquired Yellowhead for C$16 million, and we’ve added an incredible amount of value to the project since then,” McDonald said in a press release. “Over the next few years, in parallel with the permitting process, we will also be advancing engineering, community engagement, copper offtake discussions, and project financing initiatives.” Taseko’s foundational asset, the Gibraltar mine, lies about 300 km to the northwest, and as such, the Yellowhead project would benefit from existing transportation infrastructure. On its website, the company said the two projects share similar characteristics. For comparison, Gibraltar runs at 85,000 tpd with an estimated average copper production of 130 million lb. annually. -
Sirios lifts gold grades by at least 20% at Cheechoo project in Quebec
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
An update for Sirios Resources’ (TSXV: SOI) Cheechoo gold project in western Quebec raises the open-pit indicated grade by almost 20% and the inferred grade by almost 40%, while almost tripling inferred ounces. Shares rose. Indicated resources now total 34.9 million tonnes grading 1.12 grams gold per tonne for 1.3 million oz. a 19% increase in the open-pit grade over the 2022 resource, Sirios reported Thursday. Pit-constrained inferred resources come to 38.2 million tonnes at 1.01 grams gold for 1.24 million oz., a 38% rise in grade. Including the stope-constrained estimate, inferred resources now total 42.7 million tonnes at 1.23 grams gold for 1.68 million ounces. Cheechoo is near private miner Dhilmar’s Éléonore gold operation, about 1,250 km north of Montreal. “The substantial increase in gold resources at Cheechoo reflects the dedicated efforts of our team since the last mineral resource estimate,” Sirios President and CEO Dominique Doucet said in a release. “The total resources now position the project as a highly compelling opportunity for mining development-just a few kilometers from a producing gold mine.” Located just 10 km from Éléonore, which Newmont (NYSE: NEM, TSE: NGT) sold to Dhilmar last November, Cheechoo benefits from strong infrastructure in the prolific James Bay region, including roads, power and mill facilities. Sirios shares gained 16% to C$0.07 apiece on Thursday morning in Toronto, for a market capitalization of C$22.4 million. 31-million-tonne target An additional conceptual exploration target was identified at Cheechoo by consultancy PLR Resources while the update was being prepared, Sirios said. The new area is estimated to host between 31 million and 40 million tonnes grading 1.27 to 1.45 grams gold. Its open-pit component comprises 25 million to 32 million tonnes at 0.9 to 1.05 grams gold; and the underground portion 6 million to 8 million tonnes of mineralization grading between 2.8 to 3.05 grams gold. “We are especially enthusiastic about the growth potential represented by our consultants’ [exploration target]…an exciting prospect given that drilling to date has largely focused on near-surface zones,” Doucet said. “Sirios is now outlining a strategy to fast-track additional resource growth and advance the project toward the development stage.” The resource update is based on 82,717 metres of drilling across 345 holes, including 8,660 metres since 2022. -
The British pound is lower on Thursday. In the North American session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.3534, down 0.36% on the day. The UK releases May GDP on Friday, with the markets expecting a rebound of 0.1% m/m, following a 0.3% contraction in April, which was the first decline in six months and the sharpest drop since October 2023.

Bitcoin Blasts to $112,017 ATH – What’s the Best Crypto to Buy Before the Next Surge?
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
After hovering below the $110K mark over the past few weeks, Bitcoin hit a new all-time high yesterday. Bolstered by growing institutional adoption, $BTC is stronger than ever. And that means now’s the time to buy crypto before the next surge. $BTC finally reached the $100K milestone late last year, before outdoing itself in May, when it reached $111,970. Making it to $112,017 is another first for the crypto OG. Make no mistake, Lady Luck played no hand in Bitcoin’s surge. It’s down to an ever-growing list of financial institutions worldwide that are recognizing the value of $BTC, due in part to supportive government policies. Top Guns Weigh In Bitcoin champion Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of Strategy, argues that Bitcoin has gotten through its riskiest period. In fact, he told Bloomberg in a June 10 interview that he believes that $BTC will be $1M. “The President of the United States supports Bitcoin. The Cabinet supports Bitcoin. [Treasury Secretary] Scott Bessent supports Bitcoin. Paul Atkins has shown himself to be enthusiastic about bitcoin and digital assets. Brian Quintenz at CFTC feels that the banks will custody Bitcoin.” Saylor explained that Bitcoin Treasury companies are buying $BTC’s natural supply. In addition, “BlackRock and the ETFs are buying another measure of that, and we’ve got nation-state actors coming into the space. The writing is on the wall. Bitcoin is moving higher.” Bitcoin’s status as a heavyweight institutional asset is solidifying fast. And while Saylor’s Strategy continues to grab the spotlight, the corporate herd is growing. Take GameStop, for instance. It made waves in May by greenlighting Bitcoin buys at the board level. Soon after, GameStop purchased 4.71K Bitcoin. And for its part, the Trump Media and Technology Group is also eyeing a blended crypto ETF. Dubbed the “Crypto Blue Chip ETF,” it plans to offer exposure to five digital assets. Some 70% of the ETF’s holdings will be in $BTC, 15% in $ETH, 8% in $SOL, and 5% in $XRP. The remaining 2% of the ETF’s holdings will be in $CRO – the native token of the ETF’s digital custodian, the exchange Crypto.com. Bitcoin Wins, Crypto Scores With fresh ETF inflows, increased corporate balance sheet exposure, the rise of crypto futures, and a more favorable regulatory environment, $BTC is experiencing a powerful surge in institutional interest. And the momentum shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. So, if you’re wondering which crypto to buy before the next big surge, you’re in the right place. Here are three altcoins with massive potential to explode when $BTC rallies again. If Michael Saylor’s predictions hold true, that surge could be just around the corner. 1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – Scalability for Bitcoin Through an L2 In keeping with all things $BTC, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) brings an exciting proposal to the crypto table. A Bitcoin Layer-2 (L2) platform. The Bitcoin blockchain has a lot going for it, especially in terms of top-level security. It falls short, however, in terms of speed and high transaction fees, especially when compared to the likes of Solana. In short, Bitcoin lacks scalability. That’s where $HYPER steps up to the plate. This upcoming meme coin is set to power an innovative Bitcoin L2 ecosystem that will increase the speed and reduce fees. More importantly, it adds cross-chain compatibility. That means seamless access to the best meme coins, DeFi, and dApps. At the moment, Bitcoin Hyper is on presale. That means you can buy it for $0.0122. You can also stake your $HYPER for 360% APY. If you’re keen to discover more about this L2 and the meme coin behind it, take a look at our guide to buying $HYPER. It explains all you need to know. Keep in mind, though, that as a presale, the price of $HYPER will increase in stages, offering you the chance to secure tokens at a lower cost now. Additionally, the rewards APY is dynamic and will decrease over time, so the earlier you get in, the better the returns. Once $HYPER lists on DEXs after the presale, the price is expected to rise even further, so now is a prime opportunity to get involved before the price climbs. 2. Best Wallet Token ($BEST) – Driving Global Crypto Wallet Market Domination It’s not only institutions that are taking Bitcoin and other digital assets much more seriously these days. With the growing number of retail, as in individual, investors also entering the scene, it means a bigger demand for crypto wallets. That’s what makes the Best Wallet Token ($BEST) one to watch with a very close eye. It’s the native token of Best Wallet, a non-custodial, no KYC, multi-chain, and multi-currency hot wallet that is gaining serious market traction. So much so that Best Wallet is on a mission to dominate 40% of the global crypto wallet market by the end of next year. And it’s using $BEST to help it achieve that target. Holding $BEST means additional benefits and features of what is already a leading crypto wallet. That includes being able to buy the best presale crypto directly from the mobile wallet (a market first, by the way); lower transaction fees; and higher staking rewards. $BEST also comes with community governance. So you can have a say in the project’s direction – including the presale tokens available to buy, and other features. $BEST is also on presale. Buy yours today for $0.025305 and stake it for 99% before the upcoming price increase. Our How To Buy $BEST guide explains how to do just that. 3. America Party ($AP) – On the Heels Of Musk’s New Party The America Party Token ($AP) is another newcomer to the crypto scene. It was launched mere days after Elon Musk announced he intends to create a new political party. However, unlike $HYPER and $BEST, which are both on presale, $AP is already listed on DEXs. To be clear, though, the $AP token is not affiliated with Musk or the America Party he is launching. That said, $AP does stand to ride on Musk’s coattails. And to sweeten the deal, when Musk mentions a cryptocurrency, meme coins in particular, that token often explodes. And recently, Musk was asked by a follower whether his America Party will embrace Bitcoin. His response was definitive: “Fiat is useless, so yes.” Another boost for crypto. Right now, $AP costs $0.01830 – up 239.38% since it launched on July 7. Get yours today through UniSwap or MEXC. “The Writing’s On The Wall” As Saylor put it, “Bitcoin is moving higher.” And while the market can be unpredictable at best, $BTC’s latest rally to $112K is a definitive indicator that the institutional adoption of digital assets is positively impacting, and with signs of slowing. That means newer cryptos like $HYPER, $BEST, and $AP also have the potential to pump if current conditions continue. And the best part of investing in new tokens is getting in at an early-bird price. That said, nothing is guaranteed, and we’re not financial advisers. Be sure to always DYOR research before making any investment. -
Bitcoin Is One Candle Away From $141,300 Breakout, Chart Master Warns
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
Top analyst Aksel Kibar (CMT) believes Bitcoin is approaching a decisive moment on the weekly chart. In a post shared on 9 July 2025, the veteran technician noted that BTC/USD is “holding right at the pattern boundary.” The annotated chart he released—covering Bitstamp weekly prices back to mid-2022—shows the cryptocurrency compressing directly beneath a horizontal resistance band at $109,000, the neckline of what he labels a six-month head-and-shoulders (H&S) continuation formation. Bitcoin Poised For $141,300 Kibar’s chart first revisits the basing sequence that reversed the 2022 bear cycle. A textbook inverse head-and-shoulders bottom completed in early-2023, with troughs at roughly $17,600 (left shoulder), $15,500 (head) and $19,500 (right shoulder). The breakout above the neckline sent Bitcoin to $31,400. Immediately thereafter, price stalled in a six-month rectangle bounded by $25,000 support and $31,400 resistance. The eventual topside resolution propelled the market to the rectangle’s implied target of $38,000, validating two consecutive classical projections in less than a year. Afterwards, the BTC price grinded higher. Below $73,700, BTC consolidated in a falling wedge, ending with a breakout toward $109,000. From that point, the initial pullback bottomed at $91,200, creating what Kibar designates as the left shoulder. A deeper descent to $76,500 carved out the head. Then, the Bitcoin price formed the right shoulder at $101,500, echoed by the blue bowl-shaped arc on the chart. Throughout this structure the neckline at $109,000 remained intact, acting as a clear demarcation between consolidation and fresh highs. The inverse head-and-shoulders pattern spans roughly half a year, matching the analyst’s “6-month-long” annotation. Using the orthodox H&S continuation rule—adding the vertical distance from the head ($73,700) to the neckline ($109,000) to the breakout level—Kibar derives a price objective of $141,300. He notes in an X reply that this target is separate from the earlier $137,000 objective, which came from a larger cup-with-handle on the monthly scale. In other words, the shorter-term weekly pattern now projects modestly higher than the longer-term structure. At press time Bitcoin, Bitcoin traded near $111,000, surpassing the neckline. However, from a technician’s standpoint, the breakout still needs to confirm with the weekly close. Confirmation requires a decisive weekly settlement north of the $109,000 neckline. As Kibar notes: “Breakout needs to take place with a long white candle, similar to previous pattern completions. There should be no hesitation.” Invalidation would emerge on a weekly close back below the most recent swing-low support at $101,500; deeper failure beneath $91,2000 would unravel the pattern entirely. For now, Bitcoin sits at the fulcrum of its six-month equilibrium. A weekly candle or two should reveal whether the largest digital asset can convert yet another classical chart formation into a measured move—this time toward mid-six-figure territory. -
Sprott sees central banks, USD erosion fuelling gold, silver prices
um tópico no fórum postou Redator Radar do Mercado
The gold price’s sustained rally through the first half of 2025 reflects deeper shifts in global financial power, with central banks accelerating a move away from the US dollar and into bullion as a geopolitical hedge, according to the latest monthly report by Sprott Asset Management. Chart 1. Gold and mining equities led global asset returns in the first half of 2025. Source: Sprott, Bloomberg The Toronto-based asset manager said gold rose for the sixth straight month in June to close at $3,303.14 per oz., up 0.42% from May and 25.86% since the start of the year. Silver also gained 9.48% in June to $36.11 per oz., breaking through resistance at $35 and extending its year-to-date gains to nearly 25%. “Gold remains well supported by central banks and sovereigns, while investment fund positioning remains at modest levels,” Sprott market strategist Paul Wong wrote in the July 7 report. Chart 2. Gold has remained in a rising channel since early 2023. Source: Sprott, Bloomberg The rally comes amid a weakening US dollar and concerns about long-term US fiscal health. The US Dollar Index (DXY) dropped 2.5% in June and is down more than 10% on the year. The S&P 500, meanwhile, hit record highs, helped in part by rising expectations of a US rate cut and a surge in corporate share buybacks. Sprott argues the US is shifting from a strong-dollar stance to a policy of financial repression aimed at making government debt more manageable. The Trump administration is pressing the Federal Reserve for rate cuts, and new rules proposed in June would make it easier for banks to hold trillions more in Treasuries. In Wong’s view, “policy is shifting from fighting inflation to financing deficits, at any cost.” Chart 3. Silver broke out above $35 in June and is now approaching its technical target of $40 per oz. Sprott highlights recent findings from the World Gold Council’s 2025 central bank survey, which showed a record 43% of respondents intend to increase gold holdings and none plan to cut them. Ninety-five percent expect global gold reserves to rise in the year ahead. Among emerging and developing economies, gold is being embraced as a tool for “monetary self-determination” and a shield against the financial leverage of sanctions or capital controls. Chart 4. Central banks cited crisis resilience, diversification, and geopolitical risk as top reasons to hold gold. Sprott also noted structural changes in the silver market. Unlike gold, which is increasingly held by official-sector buyers, silver remains driven by investor flows.
