🕵️ A suspected insider made $1.25M profit in just 5 hours!

📊 Global M2 at an All-Time High While Gold and Silver Surge

Global liquidity is back in full force. Since 2021, M2 has risen from approximately $105 trillion to around $135 trillion. Over the same period, XAU jumped from about $100 to $470.

This is not a coincidence. The YoY chart shows a clear and consistent expansion:

• Positive M2 YoY, metals rise
• Contracting M2 YoY, metals correct

The contraction phase is behind us, and annual growth is accelerating again. We are witnessing the largest liquidity peak since 2020, which historically acts as rocket fuel for scarce assets.

Liquidity does not disappear; it simply moves elsewhere. The key question now is whether the move in Gold and Silver is merely defensive or if the market is already pricing in something structurally much bigger.

🐳 The whale "0xaCB" who opened #GOLD (4x) and #SILVER (3x) short positions 10 days ago is currently sitting on a floating loss of $2.33M.

Stats:

- 5,283.85 $GOLD ($28M)
- 97,085.91 $SILVER ($9.23M) link
