will bitcoin ever not be volatile?

[KingsDen]

Why do you and Charles-Tim believe that bitcoin volatility would be tamed in the future? Bitcoin is not gonna be any less volatile in the future. It will continue to be volatile as more people embrace it.

Do not get it wrongly. You will need to go through the bitcoin chart, comparing marketcap with the price. Bitcoin is less volatile if compared to its price some years ago. This is not only about bitcoinn but all assets generally.

Volatile is one attribute of bitcoin that attracted people to it. If bitcoin loses it's volatile nature, people will abandon it for other coins. For the king to continue to move the market, it must continue to be volatile.

No. You are getting it wrong. If bitcoin become less volatile, more people will see it as a safe haven and a good substitute for gold. Also we are not saying bitcoin will lose its volatile nature. It is different from it becoming less volatile.

I rightly understand you and I have held such an opinion for a long time that when bitcoin hits global adoption it will be less volatile. But on seeing;

• ETF bitcoin
• US strategic reserve
• Almost every institution and countries joining bitcoin
• Bitcoin crossing $100k price and yet it is not less volatile, I don't think it will be in the future. Unless when the price of 1BTC will be equal to $1M.

It is precisely the volatility of bitcoin that attracts investors to invest in bitcoin and altcoin. They like this because if it is more stable we cannot get big profits. Moreover, this new altcoin also opens up opportunities for cities to be able to get big profits. Although the risk is also greater, it all depends on the analysis and consideration of each in taking risks and investment opportunities in crypto, which is based on the experience we have.

True. Volatility makes crypto investment interesting because it enables us to get huge profits. If there is no high volatility, we won't have the chance to get huge profits. Volatility makes the price to increase significantly, this is what investors want in crypto. So, it is just strange if there are people who expect for the stability of crypto prices. If it happens, there is no something interesting in crypto investment.

It is because of reliability that people are making long-term investments.

you are right i would be interested to know if anyone who invests or trades in stocks or bonds notice anything different between that and of crypto markets? is crypto more volatile? i guess it can be since i believe it is a lot more accessible than stocks or bonds, right?

anyway i think that it is impressive how bitcoin, despite its volatility, has remained valuable all these years even if its value was fluctuating it never actually came down to zero

Volatile is also a common process for cryptocurrency market. I think that your comment is very prefer in this time. But if we follow in cryptocurrency market we can see that sometimes crypto currency market remain still. So I think that few weeks we can see that bitcoin price is just an example. But if we want in few months ago, we can see that bitcoin price is increase $100k upp in cryptocurrency market. Because we know that Donald trump win in election. I think that if world war finish, we can see next big volatile in cryptocurrency market.

The characters from the Crypto market are always volatile and this is what makes it difficult for many people to predict price movements. About the victory of Donal Trumpemang affects the Bitcoin, the price has soared but we have not seen the surge that occurred to Altcoin, because it seems that there are still many altcoins that have not yet reached ATH. At present the Crypto market looks struggle, some investors only focus on buying at a lower price and waiting, it has obedient my observations.

If you look into the current trend of BTC, I must say that the notion of a market struggle is not entirely accurate in this case. The signal is up for Bitcoin, and if any person is still on the fence just because altcoins have not moved up also they are missing something that has happened repeatedly in the past. BTC has always been the bear in the crypto market, while the altcoins have remained the bulls in the subsequent part of the same cycle. If someone just waits for the price to go lower without knowing that BTC also has the possibility to grow even higher, then such a person may miss the opportunity. Fear on the other hand leads to excess degraded the decision making process, when people make their decision they delays too much only to realise the market is not going down as they predicated, the price will be higher.

Bitcoin volatility has become one of it's characteristics for many years, it look like volatility has become it's nature, there seems to be no end to bitcoin volitile market. I think that the best we can as traders, investors, holders and the general community is to follow our risks tolerance rates while we engage on the crypto market activities.
In a nutshell, volatility might have become a normal situation, we as individuals can not do anything in my opinion

Yeah, high volatility is where savvy investors make huge gains, and also how the market wrecks inexperienced ones, that's just how finance works. Plus, crazy swings get BTC noticed, making the whole crypto scene more exciting.

But, historically, we're seeing BTC price zone shrink each cycle. This might mean BTC settling into a strategic reserve asset. Personally, I don't fear volatility, I just aim to be experienced enough to ride those waves and grow my stash ^^

       -      If bitcoin is no longer volatile, then most likely the other top-listed cryptocurrencies in the market will also be meaningless in my opinion. Because traders' profits depend on volatility, if it weren't for volatility, no whales or institution investors would have the interest to invest in bitcoin and the top altcoins.

So for me, it's unlikely that Bitcoin's volatility will disappear, that's why we are doing long-term holding in other altcoins and bitcoin
because of the volatility they have.

On the norm, Altcoin's volatility should have nothing to do wit bitcoin's volatility, that is, every asset in the cryptocurrency market should be able to stand on its on with out being manipulated by the market condition of any cryptocurrency.

But unfortunately, the problem we have and still face today is that Bitcoin still have a very strong hold on the condition of the general market through its market dominance level.
Bitcoin dominating the more than half of the entire crypto currency market in capitalization gives it power to have some strong influence on the market behavior of majorly all Altcoins in the market, so this is why we see that even alts follow suit when ever bitcoin volatility is high or low.

Without volatility, BTC wouldn't be BTC.

And as it was said - as time marches, it's becoming less and less of a factor due to how big BTC is and what it costs the market to move it.

This is just my opinion that Bitcoin will not be stable and will continue to fluctuate, because in my opinion, Bitcoin is not regulated so that all Bitcoin hodlers have the right to determine the price.
Nothing is stable in crypto because USDT also always changes when converted to fiat, even though the difference is around 1 or 2 digits but it is still unstable.
That's just my opinion and I'm sure the community wants Bitcoin to fluctuate more than stable.

Yes, it is appropriate to consider Bitcoin as a volatile asset since its price varies with market actions and nobody sets it. This yields the price volatility that can happen randomly, including at such a fast pace. The same can also be said of other stablecoins such as limelight although the fluctuations are not as drastic. This is actually one of the features of the crypto world, which is chosen by those who are interested in finding chances in chaos. This trend is hardly astonishing, since it is quite apparent that people expect to make profit if bitcoin price has high volatility, as it fetched in the past.

since bitcoin is decentralized and its value depends on the people who holds it, will there ever be a time where its volatility stabilize? are there any ways to stabilize its volatility?

Perhaps such a time will come when the majority of BTC is under the control of a few large companies or individuals, and I see no other way for the volatility to simply disappear. It is logical that at any moment we have at least three types of investors on the market - some who want to sell, others who want to buy and others who just want to hold - now the only question is in what proportion they are on the market and how they influence it.

Let's be honest though, volatility is what attracts people to invest in BTC, although it is not the only feature of course.

      -     I agreed and I believe what you said mate, because until now and even then many have benefited from volatility. And I don't think it will disappear from the category of the trading industry whether crypto or traditional market in trading.

Then in my opinion, that's why Bitcoin probably reached 100k$ more it is really because of the high volatility of bitcoin has, and even in other top altcoins in the market this is also the same concept why their coins have great liquidity.

What you said is something that is indeed true, because with its fluctuations people can use it to trade and make a profit.

I don't want to think that far where bitcoin will be more stable, maybe in a short time yes, but it will return to the usual bitcoin will fluctuate. if you want to be more stable, then we also have options in crypto, namely altcoin.
