Bitcoin BTC/USD has broken past the $1 trillion market capitalization mark.
The digital asset hit new all-time highs in several currencies, such as the New Zealand dollar, Russian ruble and Norwegian krone.
After touching a peak in currencies like the Japanese Yen in mid-February, Bitcoin's rally to $57,000 has pushed the so-called crypto king to its all-time high levels in many other currencies and very close to some others.
Bitcoin in New Zealand dollar (BTC/NZD) is currently trading at NZ$92,6890.26, surpassing its previous all-time high of NZ$91,365.18 NZD set in November 2021.
The Russian ruble (BTC/RUB) peak of RUB5.2 million in March 2022 was also eclipsed:
The Norwegian krone (BTC/NOK) also notes a new all-time high, surpassing the NOK559.436.36 set in November 2021.
Why It Matters: Bitcoin is poised to set new all-time highs in other major and minor currencies as well. According to Tradingview data, the major ones are:
- 18% off its all-time high in U.S. dollars (USD).
- 13% in British pounds (GBP).
- 12.5% in Euro (EUR).
- 8.5% in Australian dollar (AUD).
The difference in currencies can be attributed to their depreciation against the greenback and will likely be seen as a testament to Bitcoin's "hard money" qualities by supporters.
With the crypto king setting all-time highs in several fiat currencies, the remaining major currencies may seem a question of "when, not if."
