From trading view, I saw that the all time high there was $73,667, which was just down by $70 to surpass the previous ATH of March. Some exchange recorded above that, there's no accuracy to agree on one figure.
But from which exchange does trading view pull it's numbers from?
This is the reasoning to knowing which exchange is the more valid number.
Because we all know when it comes to a monetary value, everybody would like it to be as precise as possible.
If your employer ever starts paying you using bitcoin, would you be offended if they shorted you even by a penny on your paycheck?
I would think everybody would.
Since it is not necessarily a matter of being shorted a penny but the reason behind it.
Nobody likes to be short changed especially from their employer.
Don't believe anybody goes by the price on Binance unless they are trading on that platform.
I remember Bitfinex was regarded as the defining price but I think this was because Bitstamp was not created yet.
As far as I know, the forum community goes by Bitstamp's price as a defacto marker to the price of Bitcoin.
From my time visiting the Wall Observer thread. They regard it as the bitcoin ticker there and if you mention Coinbase's price they will tell you that price is not precise.
Preev rate uses a combination of five exchanges to derive their price:
Bitstamp, Gemini, ItBit, Kraken, OKX
