It would appear that physical assets trump digital assets this morning as Silver has just spiked over 1% as Bitcoins plunge on heavy volume... Did the Europeans run out of Bitcoins?

Look at that, Zero Hedge writes about Bitcoin again. Has been a while.

Where'd they get that bogus chart? And since when does a 1% gain equate to "slams higher?"

So BTC going from $60 to $69 before settling down at $68 over a 24 hour period means it's down? WTH?!

There is real fear among the PM diehards.  The premise of those going ultra long PM (as opposed to those who allocate a portion of their portfolio to act as a hedge) has been that fiat will collapse it is just a matter of time and when it does those trillions upon trillions will pour back into PM.  

What if the PM diehardards are half right and fiat collapses but the trillions pour into something else ....?   Until 2009 there really was no compelling "something else".

The alternative cynical view is that the author knows making the loose association increases the number of pageviews (and thus ads).  Same article just about silver up 1% (which is news in itself) isn't as sensational.

Nah, this is a different Tyler who is bitter that the other Tylers got into bitcoin, but his silver isn't appreciating.

Spaceman_Spiff is probably right, thought the same thing.
For those who don't know, Tyler is just a pseudonym for all ZH editors

The emotional reaction from the endogenous PMers will die down when they realize that Bitcoin is here to stay. The smarter ones are already moving into Bitcoin and the network effect will take hold soon amongst other PM traders.

I assume that the ZH eds already in Bitcoin and are posting these articles to help drive the market.

Zerohedge totally missed the last 4 year bullmarket and the last 2 year bear market in precious metals. They love to use esoteric words to give the impression that they understand what the talk about, but I find most of the articles pointless. That said I think silver is buy and not a sell right now, because of major support and mean reversion to trend. But to call the latest one day candle as a super bullish event is total bs. Even those shorting the market would be likely to take some profit at these level. (I own silver wheaton. and have money in central fund of canada)
