What is Crypto All Time High?

The All-Time High or ATH of a cryptocurrency refers to the highest price of an asset over the course of its time on the market. In theory, an ATH shows the ‘maximum sale price’ at which the asset can be sold or the ‘maximum purchase price’ a trader will offer to purchase the asset.

Inversely, the All-Time Low (ATL)  represents the lowest price at which the asset has been traded or listed in a market exchange.
