Just spotted something interesting on X - Rafał Zaorski is back to doing what he does best, and honestly when this guy moves, the market usually pays attention.
So here's what went down. Zaorski had been watching gold and silver for a while, built some positions late last year with mixed results. But when these metals started hitting absolutely insane levels recently - like nothing we've seen before - he decided it was time to play it differently. Went short around 5500 on gold and 117 on silver. Classic contrarian move.
Then things got wild. The charts started moving like altcoins from 2021, not like the 'stable assets' everyone claims gold and silver are. Gold dropped 15% in hours, silver nearly 35%. Zaorski didn't catch the absolute bottom but closed somewhere in the middle of the move. Still a solid win. And of course he couldn't resist the comment about ending up under the Warsaw bridge if it went wrong.
What really caught my attention though was what he said after closing those positions. Zaorski mentioned he's returning to crypto in about a week, and based on his tone, something bigger is brewing. He's apparently waiting for a shift in Fed leadership toward someone more crypto-friendly with looser monetary policy. According to Zaorski, that's when things get 'even more interesting.'
The way he's framing it, you can read between the lines. He's expecting initial euphoria in crypto markets after this policy shift, but knowing Zaorski's style and where we are in Bitcoin's cycle heading into bear territory, he's probably positioning for the eventual dump after the hype. Classic setup he'd go for.
Either way, the next few weeks should be entertaining. When Zaorski's this active on the timeline, something's definitely about to happen. Whether he nails it or gets humbled, the X community will be watching.
