Bitcoin Price Reflects 2017 Pattern
Cryptocurrency Analyst Tony Severino compare Bitcoin’s recent price action leads into 2017’s surge. In the last week of November 2017, Bitcoin price exceeded the round-figure mark of $10,000 for the first time.

Bitcoin’s breakout above the $10,000 level was a key moment in its price history as it marked the breakthrough of a key psychological threshold. Severino noted that Bitcoin prices nearly doubled in two weeks after reaching this psychological milestone.
Severino used the results of this move to compare with the current performance of Bitcoin’s price. However, the stakes are higher this time and Bitcoin is now on the verge of breaking the $100,000 mark. In particular, this number holds greater psychological significance for Bitcoin price prospects than the $10,000 mark.
Will a break above $100,000 spark another wave of excitement?
The central idea of Severino’s analysis is that a break above $100,000 could lead to another significant increase in the price of Bitcoin, just like what happened after breaking through $10,000 in 2017. He noted that Bitcoin prices could rise as much as 100% from current prices, but the rate of increase could accelerate. The rebound can be very rapid.
