Santiment: Silver and gold are more popular than cryptocurrencies on social media.
News Brief
PANews reported on January 28th that Santiment data shows an interesting shift: social media chatter about silver and gold has actually dominated crypto discussions for most of this month as precious metal valuations surge. I believe gold conversations peaked dramatically in January's second week when prices reached new heights, essentially monopolizing online discourse from the 8th through the 18th. Crypto talk made a brief comeback during week three; however, silver recently stole the spotlight after touching record levels. Santiment analysts observe that retail investors appear to be jumping across entire asset classes now—shifting focus to gold, silver, and stocks—rather than just bouncing between digital sectors like meme coins or AI tokens. Overall, they're simply chasing whatever's climbing.
PANews reported on January 28th that, according to Cointelegraph, Santiment data shows that as precious metal prices rise, discussions about silver and gold have outpaced those about cryptocurrencies on social media for most of this month. Gold discussions exploded in the second week of January as prices hit new highs, dominating social media conversations between January 8th and 18th. Cryptocurrency discussions briefly rebounded in the third week of January, but silver has recently become the focus of social media again as prices have reached record highs.
Santiment analysts point out that cryptocurrency traders often switch between different digital asset sectors (such as meme coins, AI tokens, and blue-chip coins) to chase trends, while current retail investors are showing a tendency to switch across asset classes, with their interest shifting to areas such as gold, silver, and even stocks as the latest rising assets follow.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For
The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
