About Silver
Silver is pulled in two directions at once. Safe-haven flows lift it alongside gold, while industrial demand ties it to manufacturing and solar. The result is a metal that moves further in both directions than gold does, which is what makes the gold/silver ratio a trade in its own right.
How to trade XAG here

Take it elsewhere
Post it as collateral on a lending market, or trade it on any Solana DEX.
When you can trade it
24/7 on Continuum (vs. COMEX limited hours)
Silver follows gold on the monetary side and industrial demand on the other, so it reacts both to weekend risk events and to Asian manufacturing data released overnight. The gold/silver ratio is watched around the clock by people who cannot trade it around the clock.
What people do with XAG
The two legs
XAG-L (Long Token)
Rises when Silver does. Hold it as long as you like: there is no funding and no carry on the long leg.
XAG-S (Short Token)
Rises when Silver falls, which is what makes it a hedge. The short leg carries a volatility decay, so it is not free to hold.
