The total all-time crypto market high vs the low point over the past 90 days shows how large the gap is that a vibrant and investible market would be expected to gravitate to over time, whether that is a gap to be filled by a rising market or a declining market.
The all-time market high of $4.495 trillion was reached on October 6, 2025.
The chart below measures the magnitude of the risk and reward should the market sense their was too much enthusiasm or pessimism by market participants.
The prior all-time market high that gave a serious sell-alert occurred on December 6, 2024. The top at that time was $3.827 trillion vs the low point over the prior 90 days of $2 trillion. This gap of $1.8 trillion correlates to the December 2024 spread between the high and low marks listed here. It was signalling then that the smart move would be to begin lightening up positions and to enjoy taking profits.
Right now, we have the reverse. We are hitting new lows for the period over the past 90 days, and when compared to the All-time high that occurred in October 2025, the spread is dramatic and similar in magnitude to the December 2024 measure, but this time we have a sign to begin buying. Tough to buy now, as it is like catching that falling knife in a declining market, but if you want to buy low and sell high, you must weigh where we are in the market at any point in time and to choose wisely on what is safe given the risk you are willing to be exposed to. Good Luck!!
