According to Crypto Rover, a Nov 8, 2025 post on X asked which altcoin would set a new all-time high first among ETH, SOL, BNB, and XRP, highlighting trader focus on large-cap breakout candidates, source: Crypto Rover on X, Nov 8, 2025. Prior all-time highs to monitor as breakout triggers are ETH 4,878 USD on Nov 10, 2021; SOL 259.96 USD on Nov 6, 2021; BNB 690.93 USD on May 10, 2021; and XRP 3.84 USD on Jan 4, 2018, source: CoinGecko market data, historical price pages. Traders commonly treat decisive moves above the prior peak as breakout setups for momentum entries and alert placement, source: Murphy, Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets, New York Institute of Finance, 1999.
