Bitcoin reached $77,000 on 5 November 2026 to set a new all-time high, according to a report by Boss Bot News. The price move pushed the asset past its previous record level as buying pressure increased across spot exchanges.
Boss Bot News reported the $77,000 milestone on 5 November. Data tracked by YourKhabri showed Bitcoin continuing its rise to $79,336 at 14:27 UTC on the same day. That represented a 1.3 percent gain over 24 hours and elevated Bitcoin's total market capitalisation to $1,595.1 billion, maintaining its position as the top-ranked cryptocurrency asset.
Bitcoin is the largest digital asset by market capitalisation and serves as the primary gauge for overall investor sentiment in crypto markets. The climb to a new record comes three days after a brief market drop. YourKhabri reported on 2 November that more than $100 million in long positions were wiped out in 60 minutes as Bitcoin dipped below $77,000, Ethereum fell under $2,250, Solana dropped under $95, and XRP fell under $1.25.
The swift recovery to record highs suggests that underlying spot demand remains strong enough to absorb recent derivative liquidations. Market participants will now monitor whether trading volumes remain high across major exchanges and how derivative funding rates respond to the new price levels.
