Bitcoin All-Time High? Close, But No Cigar

Bitcoin's recent surge brought it close to its previous record of $124,128 set in mid-August, with $153 million worth of Bitcoin shorts liquidated in the last 24 hours. The rise is attributed to a bullish start to October and hopes of a Federal Reserve interest rate cut.
