Bitcoin Forum

Bitcoin has achieved a lot nearly 13 years since its inception. Ever since mainstream adoption skyrocketed like crazy, prices have never been the same as they were before. As it's been proven over time, Bitcoin outperforms Gold, Silver, and nearly every other asset on Earth. Despite widespread adoption of Bitcoin by mainstream businesses, companies, and governments alike, prices relative to Fiat haven't stabilized yet. It's something that I find odd, since institutional investors are already in the game. Not only that but some ETFs have been approved by the SEC. If Gold's price is relatively stable, why can't Bitcoin be the same?

Why do you think Bitcoin's price hasn't stabilized yet? Is there a possibility they will stabilize in the future? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. :)

Gold hasn't really stabilised much, if you check it from say 2014 I think it's been on a rally itself (from what I remember prices being).

Bitcoin will probably stabilise when it is no longer considered an emerging piece of technology and considered less interesting (I don't think this'll happen for maybe a few decades as long as blockchains continue to be developed and developers offer new solutions on these chains - ie continued creation of smart contracts).

Even if bitcoins price wanted to stabilise soon, a craze like nfts or anything else that has been hyped on the eth chains (dexes and ICOs for example) could send the price shooting again.

From your thread you have answered this question. Currencies in the world is not stable. Even the fiat currencies are not. Both online exchange rate and offline exchange rate.
In Nigeria, when Goodluck was in president, Nigerian naira was used to exchanged #150 to a US dollar. But when President Buhari came to power, everything changed. A US dollar now is about #557. Sir,  have you seen the unstable level of Fiat currency? As for me, I do not think, Bitcoin can be stable. Because the price is going up and down. It is all about the goods and services that are making bitcoin to be expensive. And one thing I know, Bitcoin is not control by a person or a group but it is a decentralized system so Bitcoin can't be stable in any dispensation

Bitcoin by nature is not designed to be stable. Likewise other cryptocurrencies. So, there's never a time Bitcoin will achieve an ideal stability, however, there would be reduced volatility in the future. This will likely happen when there is little/no Bitcoin left to be mined.
Price fluctuation is induced by demand and supply, when the supply would be less and demand very high we can achieve reduced volatility as opposed to what we see today.
So, Bitcoin will be Bitcoin and stable coins will be stable coins. The later cannot become the former and vice versa.

Bitcoin is not a stable currency. Bitcoin is always up and down at its own pace. Bitcoin prices fluctuate according to human needs.When the demand of people increases a lot but the price of bitcoin goes up. When the demand of people decreases but the price of bitcoin goes down.And it always depends on the needs of the people. So Bitcoin can never be stable. It always is Dynamic currency.

Well, with its nature of being volatile then that could be the perfect answer for your question. But I do believe someday that price would stabilize but how long we're going to wait for that? Maybe until the last bitcoin has been mined? We don't know.
We just have to stick to its own form and character that it is what it is and if ever someday it has become stabilized then that's it. But with being traded and its price relying on supply and demand then we just have to accept that it would always be fluctuating.

If most of us use Bitcoin for investment purposes, Bitcoin value will be always volatile, not stable. Except, all of us agree to use Bitcoin for payment tools only, this may lead to a stable price then. Logically, no investors have the intention to see their assets have stable prices, how they can gain profits? Moreover, there are too many whales or big investors in Bitcoin, that's another sign that Bitcoin will exist as a digital investment for a long time. They mostly prefer to hold for years. Another reason, Bitcoin isn't centralized, so it is difficult to control its value around the world.

Below is the definition that I got out of Google (https://www.google.com)


If we take bitcoin at this position we have low inflation rate, but the fluctuation is high when there a big Whale in the market making a entry/exit in the market. This won't be happening with the traditional market, which is the key element in stabilizing the market.

Bitcoin's price depends heavily on supply and demand. An  asset preferred by investors and traders along with the speculation about price movements have big role in the value of bitcoin. Apart from this, influencers, media hype/negativity, and other big baggers have the ability to fluctuate the market. When these issues gets rectified the market will stabilize.

I guess @OP doesn't mean the stabilize is 1:1 like stablecoin, but it's only less volatile since he refer to gold's price.

Bitcoin's price could stabilize someday when the price is really expensive and countries weren't banned Bitcoin anymore. This mean government are giving freedom to their citizens to own Bitcoin or not and there's no fear to own Bitcoin in strict countries. We will see the price is less volatile as many people wouldn't dump their coins.

Absolutely true, without market volatility there will be no entry and exit for investors and no profit making. When the price of btc is down new investors have the opportunity to come in or sell when the price is at the peak.
Right now, people are more interested in making money with btc than paying bills with it.

There might come a time when Bitcoin's price will reach a certain level of stability, but I'm afraid it won't be as stable as fiat. In the first place, Bitcoin is not fiat. Bitcoin is decentralized unlike fiat.

With the centralized fiat, there are mechanisms available for government leaders, economic teams, and monetary and central bank officials to keep its value more or less stable. They may succeed or not, but at least they have a certain level of control. For example, they could inflate and deflate the circulating supply, raise or lower down interest rates, or implement certain policies and measures.

With Bitcoin, nobody is in control. There's absolute freedom.

Bitcoin's value will definitely stabilize someday when it reaches mass adoption and the market of it grows big enough that it can't be easily "influenced" by irrational people. But the price may not become stabilized every because unlike value, the price is measured in other fiat currencies and we know that they do not have a stable value, instead fiat will always keep dumping consequently bitcoin price will have to rise against them.

Volatility is what separates Bitcoin from other assets. I think the price of Bitcoin will only become stable after all Bitcoin have been mined, by that time it would also achieve mass acceptance and adoption. Gold has been an assets for a long time now whereas Bitcoin is still brand new. It is still very early days for it to discuss about its price stability.



 

It's obvious that everything is based on supply and demand, and then we have the hype specially if there is a good news, hence it will influence the price. So it's hard to see bitcoin price stabilizes in the future. The market is open 24x7x365 and it is being traded globally. So the price is hard to control even with some government regulations around. And another is that it is decentralized, no authority like central banks as compare to fiat or assets like stocks.

Bitcoin is designed from its roots to be decentralized and there is no entity that can control or manipulate it. In sectors like equity trading there are government bodies that control and monitor the overall market, that's why they are a bit stable. The beauty of bitcoin is its price volatility and it will remain there as long as bitcoin will exists. I m saying this because there is no central body to control BTC price.

Bitcoin is stable from the very beginning as 1BTC=1BTC. And this hasn't changed until now and not expected to be changed in the future. And if you talk about it's exchange rate with Mongolian Tugrik or with Paraguayan Guaraní or some other currency or goods, then all those don't have stable price to other assets by themselves. So it is impossible that the exchange rate of bitcoin would become stable that way. But if we talk about volatility with assets which are considered more or less stable them bitcoin is losing it's volatility with time and this process will go on. In this sense bitcoin will become more stable then USD or EUR oneday.

I think the longer Bitcoin is around and the more people who own a piece of it, the greater the stability will be within it. Also, you just know there are billionaires out there who are pouring a lot of their ever increasing funds into this sort of asset, who are so swimming in cash that they are unlikely to ever need to sell - this will again reduce the available currency in circulation and create a calming affect on the remaining amount. I think we're already seeing it more and more, where Bitcoin is now starting to reside in a certain range ($30-60k) and the swings are becoming less pronounced, however it still has a lot of retail investors who are very sensitive to price moves and a lot of private equity investors who are enjoying the swing trading environment.

Because adoption is still in its early phase, demand is still increasing by quite a lot while supply released is being reduced every 4 years. Stabilization would only come once we consider Bitcoin to truly be a worldwide currency, to the point where its usage is like fiat. Though by "stabilization" I mean there'd still be movement, but it wouldn't damage owners of the coin that much, aka minimal volatility compared to the amount of volatility we experience today.

I don't know. A path to price discovery? I once believed that Bitcoin surging to 5 digits would lessen volatility because "large" $100 - $500 differences in price daily during 2019 would be +/- 1% to 5%, or less if Bitcoin reaches $10,000 or more. But Bitcoin started to move $1,000 - $5,000 or more daily. Haha.


2019, yes. 2022, I don't know.

I don't see the bitcoin price running a stability mode because the volatility is not what we can do without in bitcoin in general, come to think of the price that swing both up and down, this signify the equilibrium behind the demand and supply of bitcoin, what i believe is on the occasion whereby the price maintain it value and worth for bitcoin amidst speculations, another possibility that may happen but on a very low tendency is when the entire bitcoin has been mined, bitcoin might be peg to a certain high limit while it still maintain it volatility in price.

In my opinion, it is impossible for the value of Bitcoin to be stable given the volatile market conditions. In addition, if the value of Bitcoin is stable, it will be difficult for people to reap large profits. Moreover, Bitcoin has never shown any sign that its value will be stable even though Bitcoin has been around for a long time so it should be able to adapt quickly. This is what makes Bitcoin unique, its unstable value makes it continue to soar from year to year as it is today. There is a lot of support from any side.

From where I am standing, the price will stabilize at its latest stage: Worldwide adoption. Up until then there are over 7 Billion humans who have not yet discovered the money of the future. So it will have a lot of volatility until that point. After that point it will still rise in price unless the human population stopped advancing and stopped procreating.

Same goes for the opposite. If people discover a money 4.0 then money 3.0 (Bitcoin) will become as useless as fiat is becoming now. So if that were to happen from one day to the other, then we might have a problem as Bitcoin prices would drop to maybe even 0.

This is highly unlikely though.

A stable bitcoin price is very hard to achieve, because we we look at bitcoins quoted either in Dollars or Euros. Both of them are not fixed in value and fluctuate daily. So even if bitcoins would have a stable price, than changes in the value of the Dollar will make it seem that bitcoins are fluctuating. First of all we need to find a more stable way to value bitcoins. Another factor that plays a role in the bitcoin price is the halving every 4 years. The price could remain stable for a few years but would likely rise with the halving. The price needs to be at a level for the miners to be profitable. In my opinion as long as bitcoins don't drop to 10, or 20,000 USD again it's already stable.

Apparently, here it is necessary to distinguish between the relative stability of the price of bitcoin over a significant period of time, and the price volatility of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. If we consider the price of bitcoin over the years, then every year its price rises. Therefore, in this sense, it can be argued that the price of bitcoin has not stabilized, but continues to grow. On the other hand, decentralized cryptocurrencies have always had and will have high price volatility inherent in it by the nature of the absence of any mechanism for regulating this market.
There are different opinions about the stability of the price of bitcoin, and its high volatility, apparently, will always be.

I think the price of gold is never stable even though it only goes up by a few cents as well as bitcoin which changes every second, I think if bitcoin and gold have reached a stable value we will not find red and green candles in the future

One of the main reasons, probably, is that there still are too many whales out there, and if they work together they can actually move the price as they prefer. And of course paper hands as soon as they see a -3% sell everything, making their game. Anyway lately many bitcoins have been bought by big companies, and I feel like the price has been a little more stable, probably because they don't care selling when it goes down since they have more market experience.

That is right. The volatility of Bitcoin is going to reduce in the future. Just compare it with other cryptocurrencies in the market you will see that there is a difference. The Bitcoin we had in the last ten years is not what we have now. But then bitcoin was more volatile than what it is now and the price can easily be manipulated by anyone that has a lot of money in their pocket.

But, this time around you can’t manipulate the market like you would before. But that is the case that most new Altcoins are facing this day they are being easily manipulated by whales or a group that pump and dumps.

I don’t think that whatever decisions the centralized exchanges and the SEC chooses to make will have any effect on the price of Bitcoin. But, it is sure going to ruin the experience for a lot of people, especially those who would like to maintain their privacy.

A lot of people who has chosen to make use of cryptocurrency especially bitcoin is for the fact that it is a decentralized currency and they’re able to keep to their privacy while making use of it online. But, with the new rules that are being set by centralized exchanges, people will now I have to be giving out information about themselves and the recipients of their transactions. That changes a lot of things.

Depends on what you mean by stay stable, Regarding the stability of the price, I would usually use the ATR indicator for it, and then it will indicate the average true range of the price,  sometimes in the bitcoin market because of the whales and maybe some fundamental news or some announcement of some regulations or adoption the price will do some sharp movements and this can be upward or downward, but the price is usually acting normally in the other hand the price of any other asset is also acting different way, for example, comparing to the price of gold is usually more stable and doing less sharp movements.

I don't think so, but this heavily depends on government implementations and laws surrounding a particular country. What makes BTC price volatile is its inflationary nature and being decentralized. While gold may be inflationary, its heavily regulated by institutions when it comes to its price.

With BTC in the picture, if governments from around the world would implement prohibitions and/or strict regulations, we can at least expect its price to be somehow regulated and stable in the future. Though if this happens, I think that this would go totally against the vision of what Satoshi imagine- which is to have a decentralized currency which is free from any control of the government.

If Bitcoin becomes stable then likely it will be useless, because no new investors will be interested in it. Bitcoin much popular because of its volatility. So stability isn't expected here. Gold is a kind of asset hence it's stable. But Bitcoin is currency and not useless. Remember, we can survive without gold, but can't survive without currency. Volatility depends on buy pressure, gold doesn't have such as buy pressure that we encounter on Bitcoin. So no, Bitcoin won't be stabilized someday, at least I do not believe that.
 

Actually the price instability will give you huge profit in two days,if the price get stable,their won’t be rise more than a 5% in ups and down value.Nothing will get in this 5 percentage raise or fall in price.When the legalization occurred in all the countries in this world.Then the world countries will made a meeting and fix the fees of transaction and tax to the user of crypto currency.

It’s true,people won’t inverse their money,if the crypto currency was stabilised.Once stable the profit percentage in crypto will be less than 10 percentage. No investors will keep their investment in less profit making assets.And Gold is stable assets,who keep their investment in the gold.Only people buy the gold,when they had their occasions and their girlfriend birthdays

The only way the price of Bitcoin can be stabilized is by:
1. Having an organization handle it for example: the government
2. Having it backed up by something else whose value is itself not that volatile
3. Banning the trading as a whole
4. Not letting people sell their holdings for a short amount of time for example you cannot sell your digital gold for couple of months.

This is something that I do think is not really going to happen even if there would be no mining of new Bitcoins in the future because of the supply people would still trade, buy and sell those Bitcoins making the whole thing extremely unlikely.

There's been indeed a lot of speculation that Bitcoin will stabilize once the institutional investors enter the market because it seemed that it would mean long-term commitments and people not putting out their money at the first signs of a bear market. But IMO it turned out that institutions can do panic selling and can act out of FOMO, just like smaller investors. That being said, it does seem to me that Bitcoin is getting closer to stabilization of the price, but it might take another decade to see the difference. The multiplier is getting smaller (by how many times the new major ATH surpasses the previous one, for example), and I think the price range will slowly get narrower, leading to some level of stability.

Amusing that this is the first scenario you gave; if an organisation or government handles bitcoin, it will become centralised and will not be bitcoin anyone. Maybe it could turn to one of the stable government backed coins.

No doubt this will surely reduce volatility, because the volume of traded or tradeable assets are too big, which influences demand and supply.

It all boils down to demand and supply as the cause and effect of bitcoin volatility.

Of a truth, if the last bitcoin is mined, there will still be buying and selling but there will be more hodlers and then the price will stablize somewhat.

^ Once the price was based on the demand and the supply, everything will fluctuate and don't have to stabilize the price, even gold that has unlimited supply but they can't able to stabilize the price and how much more about BTC that has a limited supply, per transactions of BTC will make the price fluctuate and make the price volatile and that is the BTC nature of being volatile and you cannot change that behavior. So in short, don't expect that the price of BTC will become stabilized in the future because it is not, it will fluctuate very now and then.

It already did, and people did not realize it, that's it. I remember a period when it moved from just a few dollars to hundreds of dollars, and it moved from that to 20k dollars as well. Not many people remember but we were at around 700 dollars in 2017 at the bottom price, and reached to 20k levels.

So, it means that with each increase, we are living a smaller and smaller increase. Sure, it is still a lot, sure we go like 10x and even more on bitcoin at times, it is not impossible but bitcoin moved from a few dollars to 68k dollars overall, we are not going to have that kind of increase ever again, it's over. We will be doing fine and just volatile compared to like gold or something, but never again that much volatile like in the past.

Bitcoin is not a stable currency. It is a dynamic currency. Its price is going up and down every second.Bitcoin for this but cannot be in a stable state. We have seen that Bitcoin was very low a few days ago but now it is slowly starting to rise again.Bitcoin once stood at a high of 68k$ and then dropped to 33k dollar.Bitcoin cannot be stable in the midst of price fluctuations.

One of the major reasons why Bitcoin price hasn't stabilized yet is because Bitcoin hasn't been fully mined yet.  This means, there is always a lot of speculation out there that can affect the interest of the market.  Aside from that, Bitcoin is still young and in the process of adoption. 

Just like what this quoted sentence stated:

For me fundamentally is because of adoption, as you can see there are still few people who know what Bitcoin is. I can say that the market is still young. There are still a few big companies moving into Bitcoin.
Another thing is a lot of people do not really use Bitcoin, because for me the adoption is really important here if we want to stabilize, transactions on the Bitcoin chain, hash rates, miners, trading volumes, exchange inflows/outflows, etc.

free bitcoin no one can control bitcoin so bitcoin price is unstable, i think bitcoin price will not be stable anytime unless bitcoin is managed by one person or group of people who regulate bitcoin price but that's unlikely to happen.

I am surprised by so many responses saying that it is neither stable nor will it stabilize. Yes it will stabilize as its price and market cap continue to rise and if companies heavily exposed to Bitcoin, such as MSTR, become part of the S&P it will stabilize even more. The other day I heard Kevin O'leary saying that he believes the crypto space will be the 9th sector of the S&P, and that, with that, volatility will be reduced.

As for now. But with further adoption we'll see just the opposite situation when we'll look at exchange rates of USD and EUR to BTC. Because bitcoin would be considered more stable (as deflational asset) then any other fiat currency. It will not happen tomorrow but in several tens years... well, I believe that! 1BTC=1BTC!

But the question is in general term mate, meaning OP is asking for the whole process and not just now , meaning that What about if all the Bitcoin had already Mined? maybe things will change as Altcoin will surely take place as another super volatile currency?
and also we are nearing to be mined all the coins so there are possibilities that Holders will not carry to keep hold and may divert in other currency that will effect the movement of Bitcoin price?

Probably not! Bitcoin is not a stable coin nether was ut developed to be so. So nay, Bitcoin will never have a stable price. Deal with that mate!

Probably Bitcoin will stabilize when all the bitcoins will be mined. But even then you can't be sure that the price of bitcoin will be stable. It's supple and demand market, price always will fluctuate, so it is absolutely normal that bitcoin price is going up and down.

I know that bitcoin has stayed for over a decade now. But it is too soon to hope for a stabilized price. So, I don’t think that the price would be stable anytime soon and moreover there are still more bitcoins to be mined in the next few years to come. It's really going to take a long time before we start talking about having the price of Bitcoin being stable.

And another thing you also have to know is that it's still going to be based on the supply and demand. So, the up-and-down isn't really going to be stopping fully. It still going to keep being volatile. Even gold is volatile, although the good thing is that it keeps on increasing over the years, there are times that it does decrease to.

Bitcoin as a decentralized currency as for me will always be volatile because of its limited supply so the price will always depend on the supply and demand as well as the events and adaptions that could affect its price. It will never change its character as a volatile coin in an instance because that's how it differs from fiat and that makes it as a good investment.

Sometimes I feel are we moving towards a global governance where there has to be a ideal currency transcending the boundaries of nations and where worth of money of individuals is not affected  by changes in currency value of nation, caused by whether inflation or disastrous policies. Just like how Russian common citizens are suffering due to severe fall of ruble or how  fall on venuzualean currency led suffering for people. To me, it seems bitcoin might be the answer to such problems. If that can be true someday in future, then bitcoin is not going to stabilize anytime soon. The pushes and pulls of regulation, libertarians, nation states and private institutions will continue to be a cause of volatility.

Indeed even if the last Bitcoin is mined, I don't think the price will be stable because the market is dictated by not only supply but also demand.  We can possibly see a surge after the last Bitcoin is mined, and a possible crash when the market sentiment is not good, after the last coin is mined.  Price isn't stable when it is increasing, nor stable if it is crashing.  I believe that this kind of cycle will always be in the Bitcoin market.

I think the main reason of volatility in Bitcoin price is market cap which is still far low when we compare it with stocks and commodity markets and this is why any whale can shake its market easily. The other reason which puts its investors at high risk is negative news in the media like hacking of exchanges/wallets and rumors of selling by major investors . The governments all over the world are trying to  bring Bitcoin under their control so that people don't get into huge risks and troubles.

https://codecondo.com/bitcoin-reasons-why-its-price-is-so-unstable/#:~:text=One%20major%20reason%20why%20bitcoin%20price%20is%20not,that%20you%20can%20manage%20as%20per%20your%20profits.

the main reason for bitcoins price. is not about bitcoin.. its about the exchange market orderbook.
if the average investors are spending say $400 a time.. here are some situations

in 2012 that $400 bought them 66 btc  ($6/btc)
in 2015 that $400 bought them 1 btc  ($400/btc)
in 2022 that $400 bought them 0.01btc ($40k/btc)

but here is the thing.
its not about the supply of btc. its not even about the demand of $.. its about the spread between price orders

EG imagine in 2012 each orderline was
1btc@ $5.998              1btc@ $5.960
1btc@ $5.999              1btc@ $5.980
1btc@ $6.000        vs   1btc@ $6.000
1btc@ $6.001              1btc@ $6.020
1btc@ $6.002              1btc@ $6.040

as you can see in the left instance the price movements from buying just 5btc is just 0.066% ($0.004c movement)
as you can see in the right instance the price movements from buying just 5btc is just 1.34% ($0.80c movement)

it may not look like much on an order book. but a difference of 0.066-1.34 is a 20x difference in volatility
..
lets take 2022 prices
1btc@ $42,999.98              1btc@ $42,998
1btc@ $42,999.99              1btc@ $42,999
1btc@ $43,000.00        vs   1btc@ $43,000
1btc@ $43,000.01              1btc@ $43.001
1btc@ $43,000.02              1btc@ $43.002

as you can see in the left instance the price movements from buying just 5btc is 0.000093% ($0.04c movement)
as you can see in the right instance the price movements from buying just 5btc is just 0.0093% ($4.00c movement)


so to solve this volatility, its simple
instead of letting exchanges make orders at large gaps between the order below it. they should allow orders to be filled more closely together at sub cent increments
where orders cant be placed at huge gaps between the next price

.. here is one exageration to demonstrate

if i had an exchange with only 5 users we could collude and set our sells at
1btc@ $42,999
1btc@ $43,999
1btc@ $44,000
1btc@ $45,000
1btc@ $46,000
and make the price increase by $4k just from selling 5btc

however as demonstrated previously if there were people competing with only $0.01 increments.
5 traders can only affect the price by 4cents.. not $4000

Just like any oyher currency, bitcoin isn't meant to be stable. Even fiat's value fluctuate from time to time depending on how the country's economy is doing. Bitcoin won't be stable because it the market moves in fluctuated manner. There would certainly pumps and dumps depending on the season and to the external factors affecting the market movement.

In the future, perhaps it could be lesser volatile. I guess that's a more suitable terminology to say. Lesser volatile in terms of having a fluctuation that is tolerable and predictable compared today that there are still a somewhat huge percentage to be mined. If in the future there would be small amount or none left, then probably its volatility will be affected which could cause predictable market prices. But right now, I don't really see it happening anytime soon. And even if it would, people would always find ways to make innovation. After all, bitcoin is in blockchain technology.

Bitcoin journey  has been going many years.I think bitcoin price always volatile. Bitcoin is a digital global and bitcoin is decentralization, it will never be stable. Bitcoin popular increase day by day and people still believe in bitcoin investment. I Think bitcoin investment will be increase in future and bitcoin price will be more grow up. So i think Bitcoin price will never be stable.

In addition to its convenience and decentralization, Bitcoin is known as a highly profitable investment. In fact, Bitcoin will be very difficult to stabilize when every bitcoin holder wants Bitcoin to increase in price to make a profit and buy when the Bitcoin price drops.
If one day bitcoin is as stable as gold and no longer volatile, I don't know if people will continue to hold bitcoin or will look to another venture capital channel.

Bitcoin price is not stabilize. It any time to changing. Bitcoin is not easy to control. It any time to up and down. Every bitcoin holdes want to be increase the price. But bitcoin prices not easy to guess. It any time to changing the price. If bitcoins increase in market place that time price will be go down. If bitcoin demand in market that time price will be increase. So time to acct.

As of now bitcoin has not been stable, but with the speed at which it is growing, I can assure and believe that it will become one of the most important currencies in the world and provided the government does not screw it up.
and for another reason because bitcoin is not backed by anything and anyone or pegged to any currency, it just stands alone and I don't think it will be stable because of the fluctuations inherent in it, but we never know in the future.

The problem with Bitcoin is that it's freely tradable across markets (something that's not the case with Fiat these days). You can trade different Fiat currencies through a FOREX markets, but ample regulations make price manipulations largely impossible. I'd prefer people rely on Bitcoin as a standard unit of account than Fiat altogether. I guess the vast majority of people are into Bitcoin to make money instead of using it as an alternative to Fiat. As long as there are big players (whales) influencing the market, we won't be going anywhere. Just my opinion :)

today bitcoin gets quite a lot of opposition where bitcoin is attacked from any aspect so that the price of bitcoin drops sharply on the stock market of course this is influenced by several factors where a lot of countries in Europe in particular reject or strongly condemn bitcoin so that it is also can affect the value of bitcoin especially at this time European countries are being engulfed in war which indirectly also makes bitcoin prices affected by the war, we really hope that this is only temporary and bitcoin prices can return to stability as has happened in several years the last one where bitcoin reached the peak of popularity with the highest price in the stock market

Bitcoin will never be stable in price because it was founded on volatility in nature but the market may experience less volatility in the future. Having said that, Bitcoin has surpassed the stage of the government screwing it up and the worse thing any government can do is to ban it within their country just like the Chinese government did.

This difference in the market caps of both the markets (Cryptocurrency and Forex) has resulted in the high volatility. Until the market cap of cryptocurrency becomes in trillions like forex, it is highly unlikely that bitcoin can become stable.

Bitcoin price can never be stable and that is the nature of  bitcoin. If Bitcoin should be stable then it will have no difference between the traditional FIAT, their wont be any need to trade or invest it. Because of its volatility in nature that is why it can be invested to get gain if it is hodl. The volatility in nature is one of the characteristics that makes bitcoin to be bitcoin.

Bitcoin price will not be stable even if many countries accept bitcoin legalization based on different factors.  Even if the regulatory developments of governments covet to regulate the bitcoin financial industry in any way that they know for sure will not be able to give up.  The supply of bitcoins starts to become extremely scarce after 2024 - bitcoin is essentially the store of value in the asset it represents.

Stabilization in Bitcoin is very difficult for me, in itself BTC is an asset that always maintains maximum volatility and is something that characterizes it, when there is a certain stability it is because there is a lot of uncertainty in the market, for me so that it can be stabilizing BTC is at a very high price where it is very difficult to fall, and I think I am talking about above $150k, the reason is simple, when BTC reached $20k it fell to almost $2k, then it rose to almost $70k has remained at a level above $30-$40k, in 2017 we imagined such a price, but neither the market nor the people were prepared, now at this time it is feasible to talk about more money because absolutely everything the world has to accept the existence of btc, even for governments and banks.

Can't see the future, but I'm also not sure if BTC will have a stable price. If you remember the relationship suply and deman and the law of purchase. The total supply in the market will be less and less while the need is predicted to increase then the price tends to rise. Therefore I think the price will still go up and down as needed by the market to make a profit. No one can regulate the crypto system, the government can only regulate the user.

And why will it be? do we really think that both of them are the same? I guess not really. I think gold is owned by a government and maybe this makes its value more stable. The only similarities between these two is that both are assets and a store of value.

Bitcoin on the other hand sometimes experience a stableness, like for example last time where its value stuck at the 40k range, I think that can be considered to as being stable and are you sure you really wanted bitcoin to become stable? but if that happens, how can you buy at lows or at the dips? There is no way bitcoin can be use for investments or for trades if that happens.

I don’t get it why it’s so complicated to understand how Bitcoin works?
And yes why there is a debate required in order to find out when will bitcoin’s price will be stable?
It’s a simple fact that each and everyone can understand that, unlike assets, stocks, Gold, Bitcoins are also a digital asset.
And as there are a fixed amount of Bitcoins already been made, so the price increases when the demand is high and supply is less.
So it’s not possible anytime that Bitcoins will rest in a fixed price.
It’s a never ending quest for the miners and holders to keep bitcoins and this leads to the fluctuation of the prices.

The reason why the price of bitcoin has not yet stabilize is because we are in the season of purchasing more bitcoin and hold for the season to pass before you can supply to market to make a good profit. Bitcoin price just dropped down from $57,000 to $40,000 few months ago, which is one of the reasons the price is not stabilize yet in the market. Definitely, the price of bitcoin will be stabilize in the future because the price is developing some signs people have been waiting to see, if truly the price will be stabilize in the future. Since the price has moved from $39,000 to $40,000, show that any moment from now the price will remain stabilize through out this year 2022.

Will is the wrong question, but when. Any market that matures gains in stability. Just look at this current rally, how different it is from every other.

More importantly, not sure there's really anyone in the investment/speculation business who'd want it to be stable. Perhaps less volatility day to day, but they would definitely want it to continue in its upwards trajectory, and that would require some sacrifices to stability.

The last time I checked the exchange rate of bitcoin, it was high, it was about 17m. But yesterday I was trying to convert bitcoin to US dollar and I saw that it has drastically reduced to 16m. And I also discovered that, bitcoin was high as 24m before. So, the stability of the coin now is confusing. Nobody knows what will happen in the next months or years. But if there bis any prediction of the currency, I will still predict it to be stable at the rate of 24-7 millions per 1btc. At that stage the nations governments will respect the currency but if bitcoin price comes down to the level of the Fiat currencies, Countries' governments will disdain the currency and tramble upon it.

The question I will like to ask is, why Bitcoin which is a decentralized Currency reduced from 24m to as low as 16m? What is the caused? Although I will make my research as well but I still need bitcoin experts to tell me why.  I am really on the confused stage because bitcoin is not control by anyone, be in authority or individual , nobody control it then why the drastic decrease of value.

if it's very stable I don't think so, but at least with more and more bitcoin holders scattered, then this will be able to reduce price fluctuations. especially if countries in the world legalize it, of course bitcoin fluctuations will be more stable, although there is still movement at a low percentage level. maybe if it is likened to forex today, where the movement in a day is not like the movement of bitcoin

According to some, the BTC will probably not become stable enough to function as a currency until its market cap reaches trillions of dollars. However, even if this doesn't happen for decades, it won't affect the long-term viability of the digital currency.

One of the basic laws of economics states that the money supply must increase at a slow and steady rate. If there is a shortage of a market's supply of a product or service, there is generally some sort of panic and prices surge in hopes of clearing the shortage. Unlike in the past, Bitcoin will not experience this type of pricing frenzy and volatility in the future since supply is steadily increasing while demand is rising.

You want Bitcoin to have stability? This is an interesting question that needs thorough understanding of what the advantages and disadvantages will be.

I think if Bitcoin becomes more stable, it might loss great value having slight characteristics of a Stablecoins. The massive fluctuation in bitcoin makes it more interesting to buy at the dip and sell and the top.

always take note that when dealing with digital currency like bitcoin this is inevitable, expect this as a continuous process


you're right, bitcoin has been outstanding in terms of profitability, market capitalization, adoption and investment asset over other valuable investments.


They are two different things having different principles that generate their values in the economic market, gold is a physical and stable element of investment while bitcoin is digital decentralized currency that works with the equilibrium of volatility.


The entire 21m bitcoin is yet to be mined and no any tangible evidence that bitcoin price will be stabilize, because volatility is what backs market profitability of which is the standard of bitcoin, so bitcoin can't have a fix price but rather maintain a range.

If Bitcoin becomes stable, it's no different from the current currency I don't expect Bitcoin's stability. Most of us invest in Bitcoin all want Bitcoin to be a tremendous profit in the future. Therefore if Bitcoin is stable, I think many investors will leave the market and will find another profitable investment place. Crypto are volatile by nature and don't expect it to be stable.

I do not know which nation you live in, but for the past week or even 10 days, bitcoin hasn't been good. I don't know what’s 17m, or 16m, I check it in dollar form so I only follow that. But it reached a peak of 48k for a while and now it is not anywhere near that level.

This is why I personally believe that we should not be really hoping to get a good thing out of it for the time being. Unless you had short position, you would be losing money during this period. But you could turn that into an advantage and buy even more since it is low and make a profit based on that, shouldn't be really that bad, could be making a good return from it as well.

I don't think so time will come that bitcoins price will be stabilise not now or in near future because of the sudden fluctuations of the market due to different reason that greatly affect bitcoin market price. Also, I believe being unstable of bitcoin price is the reason why there are lot of investors and new investors are being attracted and interested to invest in bitcoin because of the higher chance or probability to gain or earn reasonable profit due to spike of bitcoin price.

I think the best thing to do now concerning Bitcoin investment is to accumulate or do the long since the market momentum is gaining downtrend while some altcoins are currently bullish and some people think the altcoin season has started.

Above user that's saying Bitcoin price was 17M or 16M, I think the user is either from Africa or Asia.

Bitcoin price won't be stable because people use Bitcoin for investment. And Bitcoin demand always changes, must be different in any situation. We must be familiar with bullish and bearish, these situations trigger the price to go up and down significantly. Because the bullish and bearish have their own period, there should be some scheme to go to each period. The trends of Bitcoin in the market are also caused the bullish-bearish periods besides the issues or news. As long as we have these matters, the price of Bitcoin won't be stabilized.

although the current bitcoin price has fallen so sharply and is declining in the global market, of course, miners also feel worried about this, especially coupled with the decline in the world economy.the bitcoin price has also been affected and we really hope that this is only temporary and the bitcoin price will return to stability as previously stated. has happened in the last few years, we really hope that the price decline is only temporary and will stabilize in the near future

The price of bitcoin was moving around $40 - $43k for a long time period. This is out of different market conditions. The price could reach high above $50k by tomorrow or it can drop down to $35k. It is happening by its nature and not by compulsion. This volatility can't be controlled, because the market is highly speculative by the way it has been developed. Also people won't love it, if it was much stable as other cryptocurrencies.

the gold market has been fully regulated for years and the exchanges where they allow people to trade are regulated or have a little interest from people who have little money, while in the case of bitcoin it is not regulated, making them have many exchanges without being regulated, where they don't ask for KYC and allow people to trade it makes the price fluctuate a lot, but that's a good thing, because it becomes an attractive market to make money.

are you happy when the price stays steady or are you happy when you see a big price increase?

There is no positive or negative news from countries at the moment. Also, there is no news of speculation from famous billionaires. That's why the price has been stable in the last days. These are situations we are not used to.

This is just my input. I think it will be stablized if all of the bitcoins are mined. Because that is the time the cycle is just selling and buying, but still it isn't insurance that it will be stabilized, but I think that is the time that the price jump is not that high or it will be a sideways market, dumping and pumping still present because that is the market, but if you compare it with forex or other currency, they are still not stabilized. It is playing with cents, so I think if you refer to stabilizing the price, it will happen when the bitcoin is all mined and I know we are all dead at that time.

I dare say bitcoin will not be stable because many free bitcoins hold bitcoins and cannot be controlled, many whales hold bitcoins like elon musk he holds a lot of bitcoins and yesterday elon musk issued news he will sell bitcoins in large quantities and the market is almost affected by the news , this proves that bitcoin will not be stable.

What price were you watching? I'm quite sure it's not Bitcoin otherwise you're looking at an unreliable source lol.
Bitcoin is not going to stabilise, just as Gold or Silver's type of stability.
As long cryptocurrency draws attention to many and would always have to make them interested in putting money on crypto innovations. It will always make Bitcoin have a high volatility price actions.
We're not even so sure whether or not Bitcoin will stabilise after all of them are mined.

That's right, we can't deny that a whale holds a lot of bitcoins and says selling or buying in large quantities will affect the market price. And also a big influencer can influence the price in just one Tweet. For example, as you said, an Elon Musk just made a Tweet that he wasn't sure whether he would do it or not, it really had an impact on price movements.

I am very confident in the change in the price of bitcoin, even though currently bitcoin has slumped in the stock market in recent years.but we are also very confident that the price of bitcoin will return to stability, of course it will take a longer time or price changes in the long term considering the decline in bitcoin prices. It is also influenced by several factors.one of which is the condition of a country that is at war so that the price of bitcoin is also affected

Therefore I dare say the price of bitcoin will not be stable because no one can control the big whale, bitcoin is free, it could be whales selling bitcoins in large quantities, the bitcoin price will go down and vice versa if the big whale dies, the bitcoin price will rise because of the amount diminishing bitcoins.

Exactly, the price of bitcoin will return to stability any moment from now because the price has moved to $41,000 which is a sign that, bitcoin price will be stable through out the remaining months. Many people has used the opportunity to buy more of bitcoin when the price dropped down to $38,000 few days ago  which the price will definitely increase higher and remain stabilize through out this season. The war that affected many countries economy negatively few months ago, also affected bitcoin price because the price was not too stable through out the war that was happening between Russian and Ukraine.

Well, never heard of the news that Elon has plans of selling his coins, and if there was such news, I don’t think that it really had any effect on the market because for long now, after we reached the last all time high price of over $60,000, the market has been just at around $40,000 with a little movements to a below that price.

Recently, the market just repeated what it has been doing for long now which is drop to $38,000 and now back above $40,000. If Elon Musk does sell a huge amount of his Bitcoins, I don’t really know if it would affect the market that bad, if it does have any effect, it wouldn’t be anything much.

The price of Bitcoin will not stabilize anyday because this currency isn't a stable currency.And Cryptocurrency has its value because of its demand and features. There are many stable crypto listed in exchanges like USDT,BUSD etc.

Stability is something that it isnt possible with Bitcoin since from the beginning of time because demand and recognition does really change over time or over the years and if Bitcoin was stable then
not lots of people would really be interested on it because they cant really just make out some money or profits with very minimal movement thats why it cant really be possible
on having that thing.So dont expect about stabilization of its price because it wont happen because this isnt the behavior of a thing which would gain up much support.

I think there is nothing such as an asset whose price is stable or was stable, or even if I think it might be possible to be stable. If you mention gold, silver, or other physical assets, I don't think they are stable because of the demanding process. If we look into the previous market price of gold, then obviously today's price is not a stable position. And if we are talking about other assets like companies' shares whose prices are also not stable, and the coin bitcoin is more volatile than them, then how can we expect that the bitcoin price will be stable? I don't think so. It is possible. Well, it's entirely my obsession. Others can be different. Thank you.

There is no need to stabilize just because there is no more mined coins. I mean right now we are at a level where the volume is so high that the mined ones do not have any type of power at all. It is like a few million dollars whereas we are talking about billions of dollars market movements every single day.

This is why I believe that when all of it gets mined we are not going to end up with anything that would stabilize the current situation. I am not saying that we shouldn't be expecting bitcoin price to be stable ever in the future, it could happen but I guarantee you that the reason for it will not be this and there will be some other reason.

stable in the sense that the price or value. is very unlikely to happen because even gold is not as stable as the OP thinks it's just that bitcoin is more volatile than gold, if bitcoin will be smaller in supply circulating the price will increase the higher it is impossible to be stable in any sense and this why is it the reason i kept it for years

Even in the stock market that they are less volatile, they'll not even be stabilized how much more in crypto where it was known for its volatility nature. We can never expect this thing to happen, not I imagine that even let's say that it turns centralized. Once there is buying and selling, changes in demand and supply make prices move up and down as well which is an uncontrollable matter.

I know we can't tell the future of crypto but this is really the thing to happen and that being volatile remains forever. In fact, this is the reason why many have got an interest in crypto.

If the more well-known traditional currencies like the dollar and the euro don't keep their values ​​stable, I don't think Bitcoin will. This virtual currency is decentralized, which means that it is not managed by any government authority, and depends exclusively on supply and demand, the more people who want to acquire it, the more value it will obtain for what it self,  if it becomes more recognized and taken for the rest of the world it will reach much higher levels, so it will always maintain a certain variation, either very evident or  controlled.

Comparatively though gold has stabilized much more so than Bitcoin has, of course it’s been around a heck of a lot longer and used as a currency for much longer. (However I don’t even like comparing the two).

OP- 12/13 years is absolutely nothing in the gran scheme of things. This is going to take time, Rome wasn’t built in a day applies here.

For long-term investors, price stability might be an ideal situation. But if you ask about the traders, I am quite sure that they will be enjoying these price fluctuations. For them, bitcoin stability would come up as a challenge to survive.

Of course, it can and it has that possibility, however, it can only do that after it makes some adjustments to how it works right now. Specifically, I'm guessing it will have to give ground on some of its (and users') privacy and decentralization. I don't see it working any other way. It can be done, but the core concepts of Bitcoin will have to be rethought

I never thought that Bitcoin price will even stabilized mate , Imagine that volatility will be stabilized ? is there really a chance ? i don't think so , instead the value will keep on hyping and dumping.
though In time when all the bitcoin being mined? then there might be some changes as the stock will be finally in market and the investors and users may evaluate how and why the value should literally go in different ways.

Indeed, it was hopeless to see. Even the government can't make it stop, the volatility of the market remains as it was. Let's say this is going to happen (stabilized), people were leaving as the truth is that this makes crypto become known and it gives curiosity to many. And besides, people had made their choice of Bitcoin investment because of its volatility that can help them become profitable.

Never had the chance and I never felt it was bad. Honestly, people are too happy with such trends, up and down.

Even as a long term investor, if bitcoin becomes stable I don't think anyone will invest in bitcoin anymore. Whether day traders or long term investors, all want to make money from the market and if bitcoin becomes stable and not profitable anymore they will leave. Bitcoin volatility is the characteristic of the crypto market, so it will be boring when it is no longer volatile.

I think it would get to a stage where it’s something close to stabilization. But, I don’t believe that there is going to be full stabilization, no currency can he hundred percent stable, they all fluctuates to an extent. Even fiat is not stable, sometimes it’s being hit by inflation and the value either goes down or up due to one reason or the other.

So, Bitcoin is not going to be fully stable to the extent of tagging along with fiat, no that won’t happen.
If you have compared how volatile the price was in the years back and now, there is a big difference. As time goes on it will be less more volatile and wouldn’t fluctuate too much.

Although it can attain some level of stability but it's not even this time because so many factors are influencing its price in and out. Some stability it wil attain will mean that volatility would have reduced alot. Many are here today because of this high volatility which also influences profit making. Going forward we will definitely have more development that will likely balance things up.

holding bitcoin is not what can make it not be stable or be stable, the thing that make bitcoin can't be stable is that it is not centralized that is being centered. Bitcoin is a decentralized currency and the values appreciates do to the market speculation.And since it has being launched, and it keeps having trafficking compare to Gold, cryptocurrency inflation is different from gold and Fiat currency inflation and influence.

This is the issue, Bitcoin's price hasn't stabilized because it hasn't been mass adopted yet. There's a general acceptance by most people that crypto's serve some sort of role, but when you ask people if they're involved in crypto for day-to-day use, they'll tell you no. People are using Bitcoin as an investment oppose to an actual currency, if they use crypto currency at all, so we're not at the point of mass adoption. I consider mass adoption to be the point when Bitcoin acts as the world's reserve currency, toppling USD. Perhaps a big goal, but not unrealistic if you've seen how other currencies are operating at the moment. Once true mass adoption occurs, then the price stabilizes.

Its totally comparable when it comes to movement of its value or price compared to other traditional investments or assets that we do know and also we wont really becoming this big if its really having that stabilize like

kind of movement.When it comes to risk in return then we are pretty aware of that but still people do really love to take risk since they do know that they could potentially earn big profits in a short
time if ever they had made out some  right decision on accumulating while its still cheap.So its a personal preference whether you would be touching it or not.

bitcoin is not an object that looks like gold whose volume can be weighed at a stable price. but bitcoin is a digital currency created for short and long term trading business. if bitcoin was created at a stable price, the chances of investor interest would be very small. because they can't get profit so fast and so much. I prefer bitcoin at the moment, so we can analyze it for future highs and can take profits one day.

How can the price of Bitcoin be stable if the price of gold is not stable? Bitcoin is a decentralized currency.Although the price of Bitcoin will never be stable. And yet a lot of time is needed.The price of Bitcoin should be set in such a way that no one can change its price in that direction.This may take a long time.

It's a good point. Stocks still have some level of volatility, even though they're much more stable than crypto itself. Anything that's traded on the market is prone to speculation and manipulation by people with big bucks to play with (whales). While Bitcoin's price may never stabilize, volatility will be reduced as regulations (and institutional investors) come into play. We already have stablecoins, so "stabilizing" Bitcoin's price should no longer be a priority.

What matters is how useful Bitcoin is (not the price per coin). As long as it works as intended, there should be nothing to worry about. Just my thoughts ;D

I believe no stabilization is what we should be praying for. It should always sky rocket which is a win win for all..

Once upon a time, gold was a means of payment for people, people paid for their purchases with coins made of pure gold. In those days, there was no such thing as how much a gram of gold was worth. And I wonder if humanity, having gone through so many stages of development, will be able to make bitcoin become their means of payment, and all other fiat money go out of circulation? It would be funny if people could go from using physical gold to using digital gold in their daily lives.

I also wonder as well on how can the price of bitcoin become stable, stable in what sense? If we are to talk of being stable then i think it only applicable to the stable coins and of which they are also not stable on a real sense, bitcoin has to be understood in a manner that one will get the principal principles that this digital currency operate on, when we talk about decentralization and volatility then you don't expect stability in price here, because they are the dictators to buying and selling of it.

I think the stability is all about like being low in volatility or slowly moving on price. Just like gold, it's not stable but its price isn't moving the same as bitcoin.
That's possible to happen someday for bitcoin but we don't know how long we have to wait until it happens. IMO, there might be a time that it could be stable and slowly moving for its price.

I'm sure until whenever Bitcoin prices will be like today, go up and down it can be more than 5%, this is because we never know when holders will sell or buy, and the interesting thing about Bitcoin is full decentralization, if stable will certainly not make Investors buy Bitcoin

I agree that Bitcoin will never be stable, I don't know if when I reach a price higher than $500k one day, I don't see that impossible price, it may stabilize a little fluctuating there, but technically for now I see that there will be volatility, and Regarding the countries that ban Bitcoin, it is like delaying their own progress, people cannot be stopped from their desire to have more money, people will always seek to have more money, and they know very well that with BTC they will have more, for simple inspection and to people realizing concepts of: DEFLATION, economic technology, everything tastes better, when hearing or reading that there are more economic freedoms, they will want to obtain them, it is a matter of having a little more irreverence that people will take btc like this ban it.

The demand for bitcoin will always be changing , so it should be different upon each case. The price goes up and down significantly which cause these situations.Bitcoin market trends have also caused bullish bearish periods along with issues or news. As long as we have these flactuations, the price of bitcoin will not get into a stabilized status.

It will never be fully stable, like just one price that doesn't move at all. That is impossible because nothing in the financial world is like that, it will always have some sort of move. However, when it matures enough, I am pretty sure that it will have just inflation based regular ups and downs.

It will be more like stock market, we see stock market go high, we see it crash down, these things will happen in crypto as well, but we can still see that stock market is not as volatile as crypto market right? That means bitcoins price will still move, but it will be much less volatile, it will be moving like 50% up or down in a whole year at most one day.

Nothing is impossible in the Bitcoin market and the last time i checked the concept it was built on will always help the market to aim for a new ATH price but it is too early to have some conversation about the market price you mentioned.

About the countries that ban Bitcoin, is either through their naiveness, selfishness or it is hard for them to accept the fact that the coin which they once said negative things about it, is now the ruling hedge fund and also inevitable for all countries.

To me Bitcoin stabilizing is not possible because of 2 reasons which I know, reasons Like:
Bitcoin is not a stable coin like the USDT backed by the united state dollar's
2ndly, Bitcoin has a limited supply and the more people are adopting to it and the use is rapidly I creasing will the price increase, it can't be stable at all.

I'm not sure Bitcoin will reach a stable point, Bitcoin is very much different from other currencies such as dollars etc.

There is a reason for Bitcoin to be unstable.
• Bitcoin exchange rate is based on investment portfolio factors, trading, mining and buying and selling power.
Here it is clear that Bitcoin has an important role for investors to determine profits in real terms, besides that the factors that can affect Bitcoin cannot be stable in circulating supply and the other is the Bitcoin users themselves, Bitcoin is used by people all over the world and without controlling it.

Different from fiat money which can make them stable many factors for example: inflation, interest rates, normal politics and also government policies.

Conclusion: Bitcoin works in a decentralized peer-to-peer manner as we know it generally and is done electronically, to determine a stable Bitcoin is quite difficult, arguably and impossible.

That's right, it is one of the factors that attract investors to Bitcoin. And if anyone wants a stable price here it is available on altcoins. Bitcoin will be like this for the future, it has been more than 10 years that Bitcoin has shown such a wild rise. I don't think that Bitcoin will ever be stable And I want this (Bitcoin is unstable).

Does the price of good stabilised?
Does the price of silver, copper, iron stabilised ever? I don’t think so. Price is product of time, demand, and supply. Things will keep changing everyday and every year that passes by so even if bitcoin had price of lets 100k constant then also it will be higher in terms of inflated value of fiat in the future. Cent worth chocolate var is now worth dollars these days. So what to say about bitcoin?

None of the mentioned items ever remain stable not to talk of the current situation of the economy which is also not stable right now, inflation is looming everywhere and many are seeing opportunity to invest in bitcoin for feature hold of their assets values and economy stability against inflation.


One of the factors to put into consideration is the GDP of each country, employment and unemployment rate, increased demand among other factors are to be in considerations and the role of bitcoin in bringing a lasting solution to this shouldn't be overemphasized because no matter what rate bitcoin price get to it will still favours a buy and the investors.


Bitcoin is built such a way that it does not partake or get affected by inflation because the system and programs it operate on is entirely different from the fiat economy business model and its profitability is inestimably compared to fiat.

It is very interesting that you noticed that everything changes with time and even the prices of goods and services. These goods are things that are expected to be stable if the economy is without inflation  but the prices of these goods are not stable. How much more do we expect the price of bitcoin which we know by design is not supposed to be stable to perform magics.
If bitcoin price stabilises, bitcoin will stop to be bitcoin. Let us not wish bitcoin will be mutated to something else, bitcoin will be bitcoin. The changes we ought to pray for, wish for and work hard to get is for bitcoin to be 100% scalable and it should remain decentralized.

in the midst of issues of various contradictions and controversies that occurred in the process of adopting bitcoin coupled with the current world economic collapse in the midst of the conflicts that occurred of course also had an impact on the drastic decline in bitcoin in the last few years until now, although this often.happens especially the decline in bitcoin. which is so sharp, but the process is very different from what is happening at the moment the condition of countries in Europe that are experiencing an economic crisis due to war, of course the process of bitcoin price stability is a bit difficult considering that this is the case.

You do have a point there, mate. Bitcoin is traded freely on the market just like Gold, silver, and other commodities. Stocks are also prone to certain fluctuations in price, as traders manipulate prices to their own benefit. Achieving stability on speculative assets is nothing but impossible. Thank goodness we have stablecoins in order to help protect us from volatility.

If you play your cards right, you can make lots of money during Bitcoin's ups and downs. It doesn't need to reach a new All-time-high in price if you stick to the rule of buying low and selling high. For what I know, crypto trading is not for everyone. Only those able to manage periods of volatility will become successful in the long run. As long as Bitcoin works as intended, nothing else matters. Just my thoughts ;D

Exactly, nothing will make it stable because is a decentralized currency that is not control by the government or any countries of the world. Bitcoin will continue to dump for people to use the opportunity to buy and hold for brighter future to come, and it can also pump for people to start releasing their coins for sale to make a huge amount of money from the market. Over 13 years bitcoin price has not yet stable than to pump and dump in the market which people are used to the system, not to be panic whenever the price is decreasing in the market than to use the opportunity to prepare well for a better future.

In fact, fiat money has also suffered market fluctuations although it was been controlled by the government, how much more if the market like the crypto which is designed to be volatile in nature? And even we can assume that one day the government will take control over it and it becomes centralized, this can't surely make the price of Bitcoin stabilized. I don't want to make a conclusion but no matter what we do, even the government cannot change this.= as because the price relies upon the status of demand and supply. And it is certainly be changing from time to time as the demand and supply change as well.

The history of Gold, Silver and other assets nearly follows the history of human existence. It's very wrong to compare metals to bitcoin because the only exists and is mined in real world and another one exists and is mined in virtual world. You compare two universe with two currencies to each other. All the humans exist in real world while only the 63 percent of population has access to internet. Almost 3 billion people don't have access to internet and day to day some of them join the virtual world, this 3 billion can be a game changer too in aspect of user experience and much more.

Also, I don't think that gold is stable. Have a look at this Statista Chart (https://www.statista.com/statistics/268027/change-in-gold-price-since-1990/#:~:text=Gold%20market%20and%20industry,1%2C769.64%20U.S.%20dollars%20per%20ounce.). You can clearly see that it was $612 in 1980 $271 in 2001. Then you can see how it slowly jumps from this point to $1668 in 2012 and then falls to 1160 in 2015. This is not stability to my mind. Also, you should always keep in mind that every year because of inflation, USD purchasing value gets weaker and weaker.

Bitcoin is too young to mature, it's just way too young. We only had 3 halving so far (out of the 32) and do you really expect stability from this coin?

Bitcoin will never be stable because the initial concept is decentralization, if the marketcap rises more than 1000x from now on the possibility that happens is an increasingly controlled and predicted price fluctuation, of course it takes a long journey to reach a larger marketcap.

Volatility in crypto is much bigger than volatility in fiat world. Yes we have seen places like Zimbabwe, Venezuela, turkey, Argentina and all of that end up with a horribly less valued currency and that is volatility as well, getting poorer is a type of volatility.

However even they didn't move as much as crypto, we have seen things go up 20x in a single year, how many fiat or even how many other investment stuff end up getting that much volatility before? This is why I believe that I have some sort of situation where crypto is seen risky by many, who even lost money on fiat because of devalued fiat but still worry about crypto because of the volatility.

I'm sure if the number of users increases up to 10x from now on, the Bitcoin price fluctuation will be stable, today the drop price is more than 10% and if the Bitcoin marketcap has reached 10x from now on, the possibility of price fluctuations will not be more than 5%, of course Bitcoin will be difficult for stable.

Yes, you are right, what happens is that well at some point I am sure that BTC can reach that price, and as you say, the countries that ban BTC is more than anything as part of selfishness on the part of the governments, where they want is everything for them and the greatest benefits for them, due to the media and some economists who do not support the BTC, it helps a lot for banks, governments, to prevent the growth of their people, at least the particular economies who depend on a traditional job where they can never aspire to be millionaires, but this is already part of the people who start reading to see the different types of view that the BTC economy has, but people have to develop the habit of reading and some irreverence at least with the governments of the day they have.

Bitcoin is not owned by anyone, it is purely decentralized so I don't find any chance for the bitcoin price to be as stable as fiat (dollars)...

even if all bitcoins are bought by one person, it will not make the bitcoin price stable, the unchangeable supply of bitcoin also has a major effect on bitcoin prices which certainly cannot be manipulated like fiat.

Bitcoin prices are still fluctuating at this time of course because the marketcap is still small, when compared to the dollar, the bitcoin marketcap is less than 0.001%, especially now that many millionaires in the world have more assets than the bitcoin marketcap so they are easily controlled, the price will be more stable if the bitcoin marketcap can reached 1000x from today.

I think there is no way for bitcoin to become stable even in the next generation, the Bitcoin is fully decentralized that is why no one can control the price and no one can make the price stable even big whales can't do make it stable coin. Bitcoin first trading in market is year 2010 i think! But until now still it doesn't become stable.

If it is stable, of course it is impossible because of the concept of decentralization, just like gold commodities which have a market cap of millions of times larger than cryptocurrencies but the price is still unstable, even some time ago the price of gold had dropped 5% and had increased to 7% in a week.

Very interesting observation. There seems to be some series of price fluctuations in Gold, even though it gave us the illusion of stability. Anything that's speculative or traded on the open market is prone to wild fluctuations in price. Bitcoin is not exempt from this rule. While the pioneer cryptocurrency has achieved a lot over the years, it's still relatively new to the mainstream world. There are a lot of things to be improved in order for Bitcoin to become a "force to reckon" with.

Fortunately, we have stablecoins to save us during a "rainy day". As long as you're able to make a profit regardless of Bitcoin's price, nothing else matters. Just my opinion :)

The difference between gold and bitcoin is that gold used to be volatile because it wasn't digitalized and wasn't worldwide. I know most of us didn't live those times, but remember any year before 1950, or just try to imagine how people communicated between each other.

It was terribly hard, and at one point we literally had people with papers running from state to state on horses just to carry information, now I can send this message in a single second. Gold was volatile during those times of course, but hasn't been since everything has been digitalized, very small ups and downs, whereas crypto has been digital since its inception, and still having a lot of troubles.

It will stabilise one day but not for a long while imo. It’s still a relatively young, immature asset. It’s only been here since 09, we will still have drastic swings in either direction. With each halvening though we seem to be seeing diminishing returns so read into that what you will. Maybe 20-30 years from now there will be much less volatility.

i never thought bitcoin would be stable ^{(its future price is like fiat)}, one condition that makes the value of an investment asset stable is that its circulation is controlled by the government, and they can't control bitcoin circulation.  but if satoshi's identity is revealed then that's a different story ^{(of course this chance is very small, and will never happen)}

I've seen how Gold hasn't stabilized yet, even though it's less volatile than Bitcoin itself. The crypto asset class is still new to the world, so I'd say we should give Bitcoin some time to mature. While it may never "stabilize", I'm certain volatility will be reduced to a minimum due to stricter regulations and large capital inflows on the market. Slowly but surely, governments are embracing Bitcoin as the next "digital Gold" in order to make our world a better place.

Ultimately, it's all about decentralization. As long as decentralization wins, nothing else matters. Just my thoughts ;D

A few days ago, Bitcoin was a currency that was no allowed. But over the time, that is likely to change. Now institutional invests are willing to get BTC.  Many of us have been able to guess where it might go in the near future. I believe that when Bitcoin is fully used it can be as stable as Fiat currency.

Being volatile is the attraction of bitcoin, but everyone won't be loving it. For now it won't stabilize, because the market needs to experience a massive change. Countries are continuing their process of regulating the usage of cryptocurrencies. This could make changes in the long term. The recent government to show full fledged effort on regulating cryptocurrency is Australia’s newly-elected Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. Same as him when more countries create regulatory framework the market will stabilize, but the network function like a centralized system.

What ? Few Days ago? bitcoin was no Allowed ? on what? from what? please clear this here?
it is not over time , instead this already change years ago and in 2021 investors from the institutions are indeed vested here.
lol Many of us? are you part of that? because I am not the lucky one lol.

Is there really a chance that Bitcoin will be stable? i mean even if all the bitcoin had already mined?

I don't think it will happen mate because the chance like this is not part of Volatile currency specially bitcoin?

Though no one knows what will come , and hopefully ? it will never come lol.

When will all the bitcoin be mined?

Although many people hope that the price of Bitcoin is more stable, but in my opinion this actually makes the attraction of Bitcoin will disappear, the interesting thing from Bitcoin is fluctuating because people want to get big profits and in a short time, besides that because bitcoin is decentralization will certainly be difficult to be stable Because there are always those who sell or buy.

Bitcoin will only become stable when it becomes a globally recognised currency. For that to happen, it needs to become the number 1 main currency, which is simply to replace the dollar. For that to happen, all countries need to switch to bitcoin. I think that will never happen and it remains a speculative asset forever, like gold or stocks.

You've said it yourself. Bitcoin needs a massive change for prices to stabilize in the long term. But there will still be some level of volatility because it's traded on the open market. Just like Gold, there will be ups and downs within certain periods of time. If you really want to avoid volatility, then I see no other choice than relying on centralized stablecoins for peace of mind.

I'd steer clear from algorithmic stablecoins like UST and USDN because they're easily prone to lose their peg over time. What ultimately matters is Bitcoin's usefulness as a currency. So far, it's been doing well after all these years so prices are the least reason to worry about. As long as you don't invest more than what you can't afford to lose, you'd be on a road towards non-stop financial success. Just my thoughts ;D

There is something that we need to stabilize something, and that is the ability to inflow or outflow from the supply. BTC doesn't have this option because it has a fixed supply. If BTC can keep investors in, then the obvious way it will go is up. The fluctuation we saw is normal because everybody will book their ROI profits. That's how business works but in the long run, BTC will climb only upwards because its supply from the circulation will be reduced fast.

The fact that there is an inflation in the fiat world is the main reason why bitcoin will always keep going up. Even if the purchasing of the bitcoins power stays the same, the price of bitcoin will go on in the long run.

Like if 1 bitcoin could buy you X item and it is 30k dollars, then in 10 years bitcoin could be 250k dollars and still buy that X item, whereas someone who has 30k dollars and just put it interest in a bank account then they will not have 250k in 10 years, not even hedge funds would give that probably. Hence inflation would mean that even if the price of bitcoin is still the same purchasing power, it will be going up in fiat.

So you are saying the price increase of BTC is because of the inflation in USD only? Do you think the PPP of BTC didn't change at all? Please look at the charts (https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Purchasing-Power-Over-Time-1-USD-vs-1-BTC_fig1_344877126) here. You will see how the PPP of bitcoin is on the rise against the USD. It is going up in fiat not only because there is inflation but also because cash is inflowing in the bitcoin market and supply is reducing as more investors are holding BTC in their wallet.

The price of bitcoin will not be stable, but it may not be as volatile as it is now. Adoption should be the reason why bitcoin price volatility may decrease in the future, but it seems the government is more concerned with CBDCs than bitcoin adoption.

So far, bitcoin is more dominantly traded than used as a means of payment. If one day this condition can change then I'm pretty sure the price of bitcoin is much more stable than now, especially if the use case as a currency is more dominant.

So do you think that as bitcoin adoption increases, its volatility also increases?
I think it's good to expect lower volatility and more stable prices when more users and big businesses are willing to adopt it. I mean big business has a very significant impact on the larger bitcoin economic growth later so volatility is more limited. That is something that can be considered as a good possibility for bitcoin, so the greater adoption and massive growth of the bitcoin economy would greatly favor less volatility.

I agree that bitcoin is still the most asset for long-term investment compared to being used as a means of payment. That may be an interesting fact, but fortunately things will continue to shift as adoption and legality increase in many countries. I hope so.

Don't be afraid because bitcoin users will continue to grow even though Elon Musk is not very active in buying bitcoins but I'm sure people will continue to believe and will continue to buy bitcoins.
After this storm ends, see how the expected changes will occur in the price of bitcoin and it is certain that bitcoin will rise and fly back to the moon.

Honestly,we don't need Elon and the market isn't really revolving only with these whales or billionaires although they could give out some significant impact in the market but won't be totally 100% relying on it but in speaking with Bitcoin potential then this is something that can't really be ignored but don't expect for that stability because as long there are buyers and sellers in the market then price would be always moving.

If bitcoin is stable it will be worthless, the thing that makes bitcoin grow rapidly is because of decentralization, namely everyone makes speculation for profit, when prices are stable there is no hope for investors to profit, especially now that there are more and more payment systems that have a strong reputation such as paypal.

The market moves were much associated with the demand to supply and not like the traditional market that have got different parameters. Being speculative the market at times gets manipulated. In the past Whales used to manipulate the market with negative news creating panic among the users.

People are always emotional when it comes to money. In recent days influencers were able to make movements in the market. Slowly this has been changing and people have understood the real market. Nowadays the market isn't that reactive to panic waves as well as influencers like Elon Musk.

It would really be indeed useless because if it do moves like a stable coin then for sure the community would leave since they could'nt able to make money or profits due to volatility.
We cant really deny the fact that volatility is one of the reasons on why people do really stick into it plus having that assurance since its the main coin that had been supported by the community
which means volume and liquidity is really there. Stabilization kind of hope is really just good to those stablecoins but for bitcoin? It cant really be possible where its
price will really be always having that volatile kind of characteristics.

Although the reason we think manipulation are not coming frequently is that the market is now getting a little matured. Back in the days even things as unrealistic as Facebook building libera coin was manipulative to the market. The likes of McAfee manipulated the market. So I think that what has happened now is that more awareness and hodlers have been built into the market. Regarding to manipulation, it is really taking a downslide but volatility will continue because bitcoin is not regulated.

It's not the market that are now matured but it was the people (their thinking) they don't act like a kid anymore that got disappointed and cry wherever they see the price falling or whenever there is a negative news. They are now calm and they know that it was an opportunity. Facebook's plan to build a stable coin is not unrealistic.

It is not different to other projects but that scared the hell of us because we think it can affect btc and other existing cryptos. Good thing it was postponed. Mcafee didn't manipulate the market but he was only spreading fuds but he was not successful with his motive. Manipulation has a good side as long as you know how to react with it and about volatility, I also think it will remain and it is a good thing.

I think bitcoin will never be stable, if the market cap rises more than 100x from now then fluctuations will continue to occur, there are always those who spread FUDs so there will always be panic and sell bitcoins, and I think this is what gives us the opportunity to profit, if it is stable Of course it will not be of interest to traders, especially now that there are many stable coins.

Bitcoin is dominantly considered as a store of value, there might only be a small percentage where some people are trading their Btc, but mostly it is being held for a long term profit.
If Bitcoin will be used as a currency more than what it is today, volatility might be minimized. However, even If all Btc is mined in the future, If we keep doing what we do with Btc today, volatility will never end, but who knows what will happen in the next 50-60 years most of us might not be here anymore to witness the next BTC evolution (whether or not it continues to be volatile).

and how can be a volatile currency turns stable ? so the concept of crypto will gone then ? maybe stabilization will come once the all Bitcoin mined and when all legit altcoin turns valuable and usable as how Bitcoin does.
but for now? we will remain as this that the value will keep up and down and will be moving upward when bullish and downward when Bearish.
we have seen this many times so there is no way that we  will still expect this to happen.

There is no straight answer to your question because historically Bitcoin has been very volatile since it was launched but I believe it will stabilize when its marketcap will increase to the level of Gold or stock market. Then it will become difficult for whales to manipulate because its investment base will be broadened. Though current volatility in Bitcoin price is main hurdle to adopt it as method payment but for long term investors it is an opportunity to buy low and sell high and book huge gains.
