The largest cryptocurrency by market cap reached this milestone on multiple crypto exchanges, including Binance.<\/p>\n<p>This marks the first time since March 2024 that BTC has set a new ATH against the euro. Although Bitcoin came very close to a new ATH in USD, it fell short by approximately $200, dropping from $73,620 to $71,805 at the time of writing.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the discrepancy between BTC\u2019s performance against the euro and the USD is due to changes in the dollar\u2019s strength.<\/p>\n<p>On March 14, when BTC last reached its USD ATH of $73,737, the USD\/EUR exchange rate was 0.9113. Currently, the rate is 0.9238, indicating a weakening euro against the dollar.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-650765 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/USDEUR.png?w=860&#038;resize=860%2C639\" alt=\"USDEUR\" width=\"860\" height=\"639\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One key factor behind the dollar\u2019s renewed strength is the US Federal Reserve\u2019s decision to raise interest rates to bring inflation down to its target of 2%.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin has also achieved a new ATH against the Canadian Dollar (CAD), recording a price of just over CAD 102,000, or approximately USD 73,225.<\/p>\n<p>As expected, BTC has reached new ATHs against weaker and hyperinflated fiat currencies, including the Turkish Lira, Argentine Pesos, and Russian Ruble.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC ATH Against USD Most Awaited<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s impressive performance comes at a crucial time, with the approaching US presidential elections, the effects of BTC halving, and a surge in stablecoin demand.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While Bitcoin\u2019s new ATH against the EUR is promising, the wider crypto market eagerly awaits a USD-denominated ATH, as most crypto trading on exchanges takes place in USD or USD-pegged stablecoins like USDT and USDC.<\/p>\n<p>Data shows that the BTC\/EUR trading pair generates the most volume on exchanges such as Bitstamp ($39.8 million), Binance ($36.7 million), and WhiteBit ($26.7 million).<\/p>\n<p>However, these volumes are dwarfed by higher-volume trading pairs like BTC\/Korean Won (KRW). BTC\/KRW trading volumes <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/exchanges\/upbit\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">reach<\/a> as high as $400 million daily &#8211; almost ten times more than the most-traded BTC\/EUR pair.<\/p>\n<p>Recent data indicates that, despite flirting with ATH levels, BTC traders are holding off on profit-taking around the $71,000 level, suggesting expectations of further price increases based on current momentum.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on BTC\u2019s trajectory, seasoned analyst Peter Brandt said that the leading digital asset requires a daily close above $76,000 to confirm a true breakout. At press time, BTC trades at $71,805, up 0.6% in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-650766 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bitcoin_bdd3cb.png?w=860&#038;resize=860%2C639\" alt=\"bitcoin\" width=\"860\" height=\"639\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although Bitcoin (BTC) is yet to breach its USD all-time high (ATH) value, the flagship cryptocurrency has made a new ATH against the euro (EUR) and some other fiat currencies.
