In November 2017, after breaking through the resistance level of 10,000 US dollars, Bitcoin quickly broke through 15,000 US dollars after 15 days. This year, Bitcoin also experienced several large-scale corrections when prices climbed. Many analysts believe that this sentiment will begin after Bitcoin broke through $10,000. According to the chain world observation, after bitcoin has not broken through a pressure level, some people will post pictures on social platforms such as friends circle and Weibo to express their joy of holding the currency.
