Although Bitcoin (BTC) fell short by $200 of establishing a new ATH against the US dollar, it achieved this milestone against several other fiat currencies. Most importantly, against the euro, where the crypto asset surpassed €68,000 for the first time in history.
Bitcoin with a New ATH (Kind Of)
The leading cryptocurrency reached €68,000 on major exchanges, including Binance, marking its first all-time high against the European currency since March. This breakthrough comes as Bitcoin demonstrates remarkable strength against several major fiat currencies, reflecting growing institutional adoption and market confidence.
Against the US dollar, Bitcoin tested the $73,600 level on Binance this week. This means it came within less than $200 of the previous ATH established on March 14 at $73,794.
Although the euro is the second most important currency in the global trading system, it doesn't carry the same weight in the cryptocurrency market. Hence, setting an ATH on the BTC/EUR chart isn't as significant for investors as the BTC/USD pair.

Bitcoin to $200K
Major financial institutions are closely monitoring Bitcoin's performance, with several predicting further upside potential. Bernstein Research maintains an optimistic outlook, projecting potential valuations reaching $200,000 by late 2025.
“By 2024 end, we expect Wall Street to replace Satoshi as the top Bitcoin wallet,” commented Bernstein. “Ten global asset managers now own ~$60Bn wrapped as regulated [exchange-traded funds] compared with $12Bn in September 2022.”
