At the time, it was confined in a tight range with an upper boundary of $110,000, which managed to contain the asset during a few breakout attempts.<\/p>\n<p>However, the bulls took charge on Wednesday evening and pushed through it to a new all-time high of $112,000. The gains continued in the following 48 hours, and BTC topped at almost $119,000. Following a relatively quiet weekend, bitcoin jumped further on Monday and registered its <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoins-new-ath-isnt-just-a-number-its-a-statement-says-bitfinex-alpha\/\">latest ATH of just over $123,000<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>After skyrocketing by $15,000 in five days, the asset was due for a cool-off, which <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/150-billion-wiped-out-from-crypto-markets-as-bitcoin-drops-below-117k-market-watch\/\">took place<\/a> yesterday.

It now sits close to $119,000, with a market capitalization of $2.360 trillion. Its dominance over the alts, though, has taken a hit and is down to 61.7% as many altcoins have produced bigger gains.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD-17.png\"><\/a>BTCUSD.
