Bitcoin is so volatile because it is dominated by a few big whales who can easily move the market up and down as they like

Anything is possible. But how do you know about the whale? Can you give us some evidence?

For one thing, bitcoin is a relatively new thing and it doesn't have the same level of liquidity in the market like some big stocks do.  That's the whole reason why the penny stocks are so volatile, because there aren't that many buyers and sellers.

 

But I would be lying if I said I knew for sure why bitcoin's so volatile.  All I know is that it's generally a good thing that it is, since it makes it possible for traders to make a profit.  And then sometimes we get periods like the one we're in right now when the price is stable.  It's a very strange market.

Yes. Every trader has a chance to make themself a wealth. So why are they complaining? I think when all people starting to use bitcoin as a meant of payment, the price would not be so volatile. Maybe, In my opinion.

The price of Bitcoin is very volatile because Bitcoin is not affiliated to any brokerage house and because of this independence, there is no agency that controls Bitcoin. Since the price is not controlled, the change in price occurs completely according to the supply-demand balance. Due to this supply-demand imbalance, the price is volatile. Of course, it is not only the decentralized structure or the supply-demand balance that causes this volatility. The major investor is one of the most important factors in price change.

Bitcoin, like all cryptocurrencies, is very volatile, because none of them has intrinsic value, fundamental value or value. In this case, you can never say that bitcoin is too expensive or cheap because you have no reported value.

Bitcoin certainly has a fundamental value. You may not realize it, but you are the value. Humans, Is there a fundamental value greater than you. Maybe you haven't gotten there yet. Because you just read it but don't understand it.

 

You have given a chance from bitcoin price volatility and you don't take any advantage of it. What a waste.

Bitcoin is volatile because it is made to be volatile. The volatility depends on the demand and supply.

Why everybody complains about bitcoin volatility, and still here in my friend world. You guys have rich because of this volatility. Enjoy it before it becomes too stable, and everyone is holding.

Yes. Because bitcoin is volatile, we are rich. But, from your point that 'bitcoin could be stable'. No, it can not. It will always be volatile.

When too many people want bitcoin, the price will become stable. There is only 21 Million bitcoin, and there are too many people want to use it, for daily needs. Did you get my point? Please use the vision.

Bitcoin can not become stable. It is just like pictures of the old time that were not expensive but getting expensive because people that are demanding for it are becoming plenty. There will be a time bitcoin will get to $1,000,000. It could be decades or a century but it will surely happen. All the coin has not yet been mined and see the price what of when all the coin are mined with increased world population.

Yes. I appreciated your opinion. I said it stable, but that is not a limit. I said it stable, which means there is no volatility will occur. And I said this is what will happen in the future. You don't have to trust me, by the way.

I'm still trying to understand why Btc is so volatile. There is so much noise in the crypto-world, telling me that it's time for Btc to rise. But each time it kept going down. What's the art in deciding when it's the best time to invest in Btc.

Because there's no central agency that is controlling Bitcoin, it's the emotion of the people holding Bitcoin if they want to sell or add more that prevails, decentralization is what makes the price of Bitcoin very volatile.

Manipulation is the main reason behind these sudden spike ups and downs, market makers are constantly moving the market in their desired direction which has the most money for them.

Please don't talk about manipulation because you are following someone else's word. Speak for yourself and provide a concrete reference.

[Sohel Rana Sazzad 453]

Yes I expect the price of bitcoin will increase much sooner, at the moment Bitcoin's market value is lower but it will rise very soon and rise to around $ 7,000.

bitcoin volatility is also to an extent driven by holders of large proportions of the total outstanding float of the currency  Since Bitcoin's volume resembles a small cap stock, the currency has not hit the mass market adoption rates that would be necessary to provide option value to large holders of the currency.

btc has always be a volatile coin. btc depend upon the demand and supply of it's users. and it also depend on the market price so if market price become low it also become low and if it rise than it also rise so we can say that it is volatile.

The bitcoins is volatile:-

The bitcoins is considered liquid currency and people use this currency very carefully. The bitcoins is volatile and the prices of bitcoins is increased when demand of bitcoins increased the prices of all crypto currency increased on the backstage of bitcoins. All crypto currency work with same strategy.

This is the main characteristics of the Bitcoin to become volatile because it can hooked more people. Sometimes the value is low because of the other bad news exist involving Crypto Currency. There's many factors why the Bitcoin changes it's value.

[Saif588 84]

Thank you very much for your information. There are many reasons behind it . Bitcoin is a coin which has a huge amount of transaction daily   . That's why I think it is not stable.

[hassanmnr 114]

One reason why Bitcoin may fluctuate against fiat currencies is the perceived store of value versus the fiat currency. Bitcoin has properties that make it similar to gold. It is governed by a design decision by the developers of the core technology to limit its production to a fixed amount, 21 million BTC.

Bitcoin's price is notoriously volatile. Over the years, we’ve witnessed huge swings (both up and down) in the span of days, hours and even minute, it is due to bitcoin is relatively young, having only been around since 2009.

It takes time for a new technology to evolve and find its place in our lives, emotions of every trader affects it,especially the news has big part of every cryptos price effects.

Bitcoin is currently working as a means of making money, so many young people and many types of people have expressed interest in it and have been working on it, so it seems to be a currency job. It seems to be easy and fast.

[Tasrif Hossain 271]

One of the reasons why Bitcoin is so similar is that there are so many characters who are more hands-on with those who have bigger investors because they wish there were more barbaric exchanges on the channel than everInvest in anytime and withdraw their money at any time, and in this way they control the song completely in their hands, because the more they invest, the higher the price increases and their investment can be withdrawn at any timeAnd this reduces their prices further, and considering all these aspects, it is understood that there is always a volatile

[Man 741]

no need to worry about what happens to Bitcoin right now. Everything is as it should be, no one can push directly in 1 second for Bitcoin to increase. All are still in the process, just be sure the crypto or Bitcoin market will soon increase.
