will bitcoin ever not be volatile?

[erus]

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.

Only a simple calculation in my opinion because the volatile from Bitcoin becomes profitable when the tips to buy below and sell it when the price of Bitcoin above.

It's better to volatile because if I buy Bitcoin in the price of 82,000 dollars with a capital of 2 Bitcoin, then the price of the bitcoin rises to the price of 92,000 then the profit is 20,000 dollars.
After a profit of 20,000 dollars, I am sure I have to wait for the bitcoin to go back down at 82.0000 so that I can maintain the image of the Bitcoin trading itself.

^ Without volatility, BTC would lose its charm for many enthuthiasts out there - not everyone is for it due to its value and tech it brings to the table.

Volatility is a reflection of demand and supply

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.

limelight
Btw, what do you mean by limelight?
I just found out about that word, is it something in your city that is related to crypto?

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.

I also often hear stories and facts from various communities that Bitcoin used to have very fast increases and decreases in price because in the past there were only a few people trading Bitcoin and it was not fought over by many people.
So, in my personal opinion, it is natural that the price of Bitcoin fluctuated very quickly because the price was still cheap and not yet fought over by everyone.

I don't believe Bitcoin will ever stop being volatile, but it may become less volatile in the near future as adoption increases and governments reserve Bitcoin, making sales less frequent and the price more stable.

You can't prevent people from selling Bitcoin when its price rises. As the price rises, selling increases, and then it falls again. Therefore, I believe volatility cannot be stopped, but it can be mitigated as much as possible.

Bitcoin is decentralized no one can control its price that is why it is full of excitement specially during bull season you can really earn on it  by simply buying and holding it and then sell  when it reach the limitations that you set. It is always high on volatility because we have different situation and global news that can affect the price because investors has a different sights on different news and it will be having impact to law of supply and demand and trigger the price to become very high on volatility and that what i have observed on this present time.

I don't like this option, but maybe making it centralized would make its value stable or even tend to be like gold which always increases but slowly... actually the acquisition of all the existing Bitcoin supply by a single entity could also make it controllable, but that would eliminate the unique nature of Bitcoin which is known to be decentralized....

Maybe when Saylor really owns all the existing Bitcoin supply, this really kills the freedom of privacy for a safer money...

He won't be able to make this probability a reality.

There will always be other players having all of BTC too.

The question posed by the OP have been ringing in the mind of many Bitcoiners since the recent widespread adoption by different institutions in the world. Greater global adoption of Bitcoin off course is one of the factors that could reduce the volatility of Bitcoin but it'll surely not make it disappear.

 As Bitcoin continue to mature, volatility is expected to decline but it is very likely retain some due to some of it's distinctive properties as well as it's role as a decentralized alternative to conventional fiat

Bitcoin volatility will always exist, because that is the character of the crypto market. Even if many people have adopted bitcoin, it is likely that whakes will continue to play their role in the market and make the price of bitcoin volatile so they can profit from the price difference. But maybe if there are many bitcoin investors and it becomes more popular, it is likely that bitcoin will be more stable

Definitely, Bitcoin volatility will be there because it's what drives people to buy Bitcoin as it you can get a short term profit and long term profit, without it even the traders here will be frustrated and I think the inherent characteristics of Bitcoin is volatility that's what so many people has hated it from beginning but as time goes, they learn to accept it.

Volatility is what makes Bitcoin that unique coin and that's what almost every other coins are doing just that it's more of mature and don't crash like other altcoins do because of the available liquidity, other altcoins doesn't have the half of liquidity Bitcoin have.

we could say that people's reluctance to not using bitcoin for everyday transactions can also be because of its volatility but as we talk about the future where bitcoin is adopted globally by the masses and used for everyday transactions, do you think that a time will ever come where bitcoin will not be volatile?

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?

If you’re looking for when the price of bitcoin will stabilize, then it would have to be when it’s not more an asset one can invest into, the one that has effects on the price base on demand and supply. Without this, I don’t think we can ever see a stabilized market for bitcoin. The volatile nature of it is what makes more people to show interest in it, whereby you can get to buy at a low price and sell at an higher price. If it becomes stable and only been used as a means of transaction only, then we will not see it as an investment to rely on for long time profit.

Indeed, I also think that if we are looking for the price of Bitcoin to stabilize, it means that we won't do it for tarding again. and this will not be interesting anymore to be long term holding, right?
Because one of the interesting things about Bitcoin investment is the price movement which is indeed with its volatility, with the existence of bearish and bullish cycles as well, this causes the investment to be quite successful, with a price increase that is also very potential. So, indeed, all of this must have its pluses and minuses, so if the price is stable, then there are still pluses and minuses. Personally, I still like things like this.

On my economic view, bitcoin volitality is likely to increase as adoptions increases, this is basically due to increasing demands due to FOMO and others factors
Now, these are likely factors that may increase Bitcoin volitality at some points,
1.Fear of missing out(FOMO)
2.Speculators and hype
3. Economic and political factors eg Tarrif war,  War, disasters etc

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?

The volatility in the price of Bitcoin will reduce overtime, but there can never be or come a time when the price will become stable like fiat currencies.
It is important we understand that Bitcoin's value (both it's general and monetary value) is tied to its volatility, the day the price of Bitcoin stops being volatile is the day it starts gaining stand as a currency for peer to peer transactions (that is, many people will start using it as payment for buying and selling), but it also will start losing alot of big investors since most people are investing in bitcoin solely for its volatility and ability to increase in value in a short period of time.

So in other words, we can assume or say that the price volatility is a blessing in disguise, and we shouldn't pray for it to stop.

  Bitcoin volatility is part of the reason that has made it to have value,  as investors are attracted to it because of the significant price change and returns. Just like you have mentioned if bitcoin price where to be made stable, it would not be attracted to investors anymore who are looking for high risk reward and opportunities

I don't understand why people will want Bitcoin to be more stable, reason why we have so many Bitcoin enthusiast is the benefits they get from Bitcoin investment, Bitcoin as a currency isn't trending in the market, just large firms and organizations are accepting Bitcoin as payment currency, so for what reason do we expect Bitcoin to go stable. There will always be buying and selling, personal individuals will sell, large firm holders will sell, Bitcoin scarcity will happen and further popularity will make Bitcoin retain its volatility.
