I've just seen it hit $19841 on coindesk before dropping a little.
There's isn't a fixed price on when bitcoin has broken its previous all time high which is why the $20,000 milestone is mostly used as that'll be the significant price we all can agree to. If you noticed on some exchanges already, bitcoin has broken its previous highs but not much hype is going round about that since the $20,000 price mark hasn't been broken. With time, bitcoin been below $20,000 will become a time of the past, we're just in the first day of december and bitcoin is already few hundreds dollars away from Breaking the $20,000 milestone.
We won't pass that mark in our first attempts (that's a fact) as there are very strong resistance in that level, this is the second time bitcoin is trading above $19,000 in anticipation for breaking $20,000. There could be another correction before it finals happens and it'll be in the later weeks of december not the very first as many are assuming.
