Are they making public appearances still?

Or, has all of the smoke started to suffocate them?
Do we actually believe the numbers that our benevolent government dishes out? Idk maybe

Inflation skyrocketed post COVID(prices clearly show this), and even if the inflation rate has "slowed" since, it's still compounding on top of that initial burst that many(most) Americans didn't expect, nor plan for while they were spending their stimulus check bennies on dumb shite.

Do any of y'all ever worry about our benevolent government trying to force you to sell to them at a set price?

Is there a stark difference between the two regions or only mild ones?
The closest actual hills to Bryan, TX are in Gause, TX (About 25 miles)

Sugarloaf Mountain is there which is a sacred Native American spot.

Jimbo actually lived on an adjacent hill from it.

And if so, at which level do we get the proverbial "Dead Cat Bounce" ?
To add on to this: Silver is used 35% more in industry now than it was in the year 2011.

So to add 35% to my bottom estimate of $34 we're looking at $45 spot price at the bottom.

The real caveat: M2 money supply per person from the year 2011 to now has increased by over 100%

If we apply that logic to my $45 number, then we're over $90 and right now is priced below the bottom.

I'm just fricking with numbers and percentages
