CryptoA
All-Time High
The highest price ever reached by a cryptocurrency or asset, often abbreviated as ATH. Breaking an all-time high is significant because there is no overhead resistance from previous holders looking to sell at break-even. This often leads to price discovery, where momentum and FOMO can drive rapid further gains.
Example
“Ethereum just hit a new all-time high above $5,000, entering uncharted territory with no historical resistance levels above.”
