SILVER. What is it doing?
$75-$100
Silver is straight trash...dump it now or else

Silver is used in a shit ton of things
Gold by comparison is a worthless shiny rock given value cause we like shiny things
Most reflective metal and its going to be the first element to go extinct from overuse in electronics
And the price still wont budge
Plasma monitors have about 3 ounces of silver in them, LEDs are about 1. A tomahawk missile has about 35 pounds of silver in it, and when it blows up that shit is gone.
Lol kind of nice compared with the other ponzi schemes
I expect all the metals will go down if we ever get the reigns off mining in Antarctica
silver has a very low resistivity. It is used for a lot of things. large industrial electrical contacts (copper bar electroplated with silver) for example. gold is also used for contacts, but that is because it is quite soft and only requires a small amount of force to make a low-resistance join, so it is ideal for shit like your graphics card and headphone jacks
>resisitivity from the lowest:
>silver
>copper
>aluminium
>gold
these top 4 are the kind of holy grail of conductors, and selection out of the 4 is mainly based on metallurgical differences. (aluminium is lightweight, cheap, and good for aerial conductors, but work hardens and is stiff. copper is very ductile and doesn't work harden much, so it ends up used as a conductor most of the time. silver is too expensive for people to run cables with but has the lowest resisitivity, gold is very corrosion resistant and soft but very expensive and heavy... you get the idea.)
