Unfortunately, stackers, I bring you some bittersweet news this evening…
Our annual #SilverGoldStackers Secret Silver Santa has been one of the longest-standing and most cherished traditions within our community. Each year, members from all corners of the globe take part in what can only be described as the perfect mix of generosity, mystery, and shiny excitement. It’s more than just a silver swap — it’s a celebration of community spirit, trust, and shared passion for precious metals. But this year feels… different!!. With crypto prices dipping lower and lower, engagement across the platform has noticeably slowed. And now, with silver sitting above the $50 mark, many are wondering — have we finally become a victim of our own success?
For years, the Secret Silver Santa has thrived on goodwill, community spirit, and the joy of giving. But this perfect storm — high silver prices, low crypto returns, and a quieter platform — could make this the toughest year yet to keep the tradition alive. Will people still be willing to part with their silver? Or will they need to buy new pieces just for their chosen recipient?
I sincerely hope this isn’t the last time we gather together to celebrate this amazing social experiment — a tradition that’s brought countless smiles, friendships, and unforgettable surprises. The community spirit is still there, burning quietly beneath the surface, and I truly believe we can fan that flame back to life. So, here’s your fair warning — it may be now or never.... If you’ve ever wanted to take part, or if you’ve been part of this wonderful exchange before, this might be your last chance to say those two magic words:
“I’m in.”
You’ve still got two weeks to get your name down, and for those who already have — thank you! I’ll be releasing the participant list in a week or two, ready for the draw in early November. Let’s make sure this year’s Secret Silver Santa is one to remember — not as the final chapter, but as a shining reminder of what makes this community so special.
