The question is very simple as the subject line says,

Do you want to see a stable bitcoin market price or a volatile market price?

Please cast your vote and give us the reasons for your choice!

I know such kind of topic can potentially attract a large number of spam so I have kept it as self moderated! Any invalid reply will be deleted!

This isn't stability. This is a coma.

For Bitcoin to be properly useful to many it needs to be considerably larger than it is now. It's still minor in the great scheme of things. To get bigger, volatility is inevitable. Once it's grown to not too far off saturation, that's when stability becomes desirable.

anybody who understands why bitcoin was created would also want the price to be more stable because bitcoin was created to be a currency and to do that a price stability will be in favor of this goal while the higher volatility would make it harder.

but it is not about what we want, bitcoin is still new and in the course of its adoption the price will continue to be volatile as it shoots upwards then corrects to get ready for another shoot up.

A volatile market attracts traders and speculators. A stable market attracts merchants and businesses. Whichever fits your liking, either way the market will still grow. The question is how solid would the foundation of each option be since both markets has its strengths and weaknesses.

But since I want to have my coins be spent somewhere, I'll choose a stable market since it will attract business owners to accept bitcoin and have the economy stimulated. Growth potential is higher compared to an on-off volatile market.

How stable is stable?
What we have at the moment is just fine IMO. I am happy with the small
fluctuations in the market which are not to dramatic so traders can make
their losses and gains and in theory for a merchant bitcoin can be a viable
oayment alternative to FIAT.

A stable bitcoin market makes it easy to trade items that are not exclusive to the global market. The thing to do now is let the bitcoin company help you spread more people know about bitcoin or bitcoin in the future. It is a convenient solution for bitcoin to be expanded to help the world economy grow rapidly.

I want the market to rise like the previous year so that every investor and Bitcoin user can benefit because this is the goal of someone who plunged into the crypto world.

I'm in favor of being volatile. At the moment a stable Bitcoin won't get us anything, the fact that most investor's goal is profit. The only benefit of its being stable is for acceptance, but I don't think that the reason for not being accepted is a volatility. Even if it is already stable, now the process doesn't begin for the acceptance of cryptocurrency, the reason for not being accepted is the transparency, it is not necessary for the government, they can easily handle dirty jobs with paper money. That's why I'm in favor of being volatile, at least we can make some profit. Perhaps now the price is lower than expected, but more earnings already mean more risk.

If Bitcoin would be stable. You can't have a good amount of trades in a short amount of time again. But in order for us to use Bitcoin as a payment method it has to be stable.

The volatility is more attractive for investors and newcomers, because it is motivating people to buy, trade, hold Bitcoin with the hope that the BTC price increases highly in the future and reach the highest levels. If it has a stable price, I think more people will lose this hope, and it will affect the BTC trading volume.

I want it more or less volatile market. Its been few years now since when I am hoarding bitcoin and experiencing the potential of its volatility. Now the fact is, bitcoin volatility gives this market more movement than it would have given it when it is stable one. There is no point in its stability, because it is not being used as real currency neither we see any positive response from the government. All we see is its negation from the real world. So where are its actual outcomes ? Well surely its just trading, investing and hodling of bitcoin and with the volatility it just becomes far more profitable than stable one. Thats why volatile.

Bitcoin and other cryptos will eventually become more stable.  We are still really in the early adoption phase.  A lot of people are scared to get paid in crypto because of the wild price swings.  You could get paid one week and end up losing 20 % of what you earned.  Most stores that accept crypto are converting straight to fiat money because of this.

Wow, 50/50 results suggest that it's really not that easy to make a choice. Stability is always valued, because people's expectations are easily met this way. I do agree, however, that stability on the current price is pretty terrible. The market has to compensate people their losses and stabilize at least around previous ath. Volatility +- 10% is reasonable, allows to profit from dailty trading and something we could probably all agree on. But when the price is in constant decline and then reaches the bottom to stabilize around it - it is not a good sign. Most of people are still holders.

I chose volatile market for bitcoin. Why? Because if bitcoin will have a stable price then we will not have a chance to invest or buy and hodl it. We will not earn if the bitcoin's price will be stable while if it is volatile, then its value is unpredictable and it will surely become high and low everytime. From this, we will have a chance to earn from the bitcoin we buy and hold.

that's the complicated part though. each of these two will be the cause of the other. for example more merchant and businesses adoption we have, as a result we will also have a bigger rise and a big volatility and that attracts more speculators and traders and then increase the price while most of them will also become interested in bitcoin as a currency and start spending it which makes more merchants adopt bitcoin....
that is why we are waiting for mass adoption...

I think the sense of market is being volatile at least at the first stage of its existence ... so noone expects from Bitcoin to be stable, but just not to fall so low

IMHO I'll go for a volatile market,where prices go up and down, as it'll be beneficial for investors
I doubt if the price is stable or rocked at a particular price, investors would be attracted

I stand to be corrected,but I think the volatility of the bitcoin is the real reason behind it's profitability

In the sense that Mr Bob purchases when it's 6000 USD and sells off when the price suddenly rises to 8000usd, that'll put him in line for 2000usd profit due to the volatility of the market

Of course, like the volatile market. Because it is not the actual form of Bitcoin. Bitcoin will be more than big. Which will bring change in the currency in the whole world tomorrow.

BItcoin is the epitome of volatility and every currency has this feature to some extant. What is worrisome here is that the ratio of volatility is too large even for the riches, and this should have a certain amount of regulations for the price change.
Out of the blue, the price rises to 20k and some months later it digs sown to 6k.
I know how this things operate but I want to see bitcoin solve this problem and some solid schemes should be taken to lessen the volatility ratio. I have high hopes for bitcoin and I know that stable market is never possible for bitcoin.
A volatile market that do not let people go out from it, is what I expect. Cheers.

how to get profit if there is no market volatility? volatility is one of the characters of cryptocurrency, this is what distinguishes it from trading other assets, maybe for this reason also forex traders start to look at Bitcoin
because it has high volatility, some experts do not recommend to making Bitcoin as long-term investment asset

I do have a question in regards with stability and the current situation of bitcoin, because it has been playing around the same price, does it not mean that in a way it is stable? And if it is, then how come people are still not getting into bitcoin? Why are business corporations are still not accepting bitcoin as alternative to fiat? Do you think that maybe stability is not enough to achieve this particular goal of adoption?

bitcoin is not stable coin bro! bitcoin is not the same as USDT, bitcoin is not backed up by USD like Tether. and bitcoin is not backed up by banks like Ripple.

I conclude that bitcoin has a low or high volatility value, slow or fast. both are profitable for every trader.

I want to see a stable market.
because with the existence of a stable market it will not disappoint for bitcoin players especially for those who always follow ico in a campaign.
if the market is not stable, it can lead to bitcoin players, many are disappointed, because, do not know, until when the market price will rise, and when will the market price drop,

Stability to the point of an unchanging value? If you mean like that then what will be point of investing? Where will be the thrill? If bitcoin’s value will be steady all the time then I dont think it will be more profitable as it is today or as it was years back. It will not be as famous and as valuable as it is today if it will be steady.

I want bitcoin to have a volatile market because when the price is expensive you can have a chance to become a millionaire.This is the only way to achieve my goals in life to be a millionaire.Because there are many people now become a millionaire created by bitcoin.

I prefer to see the increase up for Bitcoin, unfortunately it is not on that choices. I am trader even though in small portion or amount, I definitely like to see the volatile of of Bitcoin value than stable. Because I can buy in low price and sell it when the price increase. However, now it is difficult to do that because for recent several months Bitcoin price movement is very slow. It is not a proper time to do short term investment or trading.

Obviously I want to see bitcoin price stable because volatile market is not good for most of the investors.Volatile market give profit only limited number of investors who are known pump and dump group.So I want to see stable bitcoin.

The more volatile the market, the merrier it is for traders. Unfortunately that is a negative situation for a trader. It depends.... For me as an Investor it will be a long wait

I, personally think it is a good time for a new Investor. Market are way below their native price.

Let's assume the Market come back for Bear to Bull, the rest will become History.

Giving this thread a bump because I see only 17 votes so far!! I request everyone to vote for their choice, even if you don't have proper arguments for your voting choice! I want to do some data analysis from the outcome of this thread after running this poll for a month!

So please vote for your choice!

it's true bro bitcoin is a coin that often experiences increases and decreases and coins that cannot be predicted by anyone about the price that will rise and fall. so bitcoin is not stable because the price is always wearing and decreasing sometime

of course I want to choose and see a stable market even though it's only temporary, because when the market is stable of course the coin price is high and it's easy to make a profit. I will support what you will do.

Thank you for your kind information bro!  ;D I will mark in my notebook!

I have asked whether do you prefer a stable market or a volatile market? I am trying to understand the sentiment of the market and their wish about the stability or volatility of the bitcoin's price!

The question is difficult to answer, since a stable market would not allow large profits. The crypto market will never be stable, not even the stock markets are stable. With the maturation of the crypto market, the tendency is that volatility will decrease, but rather the prices of cryptos will increase a lot with certainty.

The market being stable will quicken the mass adoption of bitcoin and other cryptocurrency. The volatile market now is taking the shine away from the goodness of it and portraying bitcoin as gambling.

Bitcoin needs to be stable in order that it can/will be taken up by more and more people and businesses. Hopefully over the next decade it will remain stable and grow both in value and usefulness. It the classical chicken and egg scenario. To achieve this we need to start using our bitcoins to buy real stuff, this will drive acceptance by others, and help with stability and sustainable growth.   

I voted Not Sure because I couldn't decide which would be better. Volatile market is kind of what we are used to, and for investors, it is great for making loads of profit. And a stable market wouldn't be bad because Bitcoin would probably be accepted on more sites, normal shops and it would be more a currency rather an investment. I really don't know which would be better.

i am not sure
i like a stable market so investors don't need to be afraid to invest in bitcoin
but on the other hand i like volatile markets
because prices can suddenly rise dramatically and that is an opportunity to take profits
so...... i don't know....... i'm not sure

For me, I would choose a volatile market. The value of stable bitcoins for a long time is making many investors feel discouraged. With small fluctuations investors can not make much profit with bitcoin. We need strong fluctuations in the value of bitcoin to make a big profit.

Of course we would choose a volatile market for value. Bitcoin's stable value I think it will not be good for the development of the market because it does not attract much investment attention. I want to see the volatility of the market and strong growth in value to create new mutations.

I prefer volatile markets, because it will make it easier for me to take long and sell positions with volatile market conditions. There will be a wide range of price differences. In addition, if the market is stable the chart pattern will tend to be sideways, it will be difficult to take profits unless we monitor the chart every day.

Interesting question and even more interesting result of users ' answers. Apparently, those who play in the market in the short-term period of sales vote for volatility, and those who invest their savings for a long time in cryptocurrencies vote for stability. Very interesting) Apparently traders we have not much more than investors. Perhaps it depends on the sad situation in the market at the moment.

Volatility is what I choose even you invest for long term or trading because you can see the market change and profit at the same time. If bitcoin is stable it is just like a gold then that will not give you opportunity to buy in low price but for its stable price and wait much longer time. Stability cannot help for bitcoin to be used even as payment method then.

Like as what a lot of people vote, bitcoin actually wanted to be stable coins because a lot of people want something that can make them get profit, and then they don't need to waste their time when count their profit if want to cash out their bitcoin to fiat, lets make volatile market on altcoin only so traders can make profit from it.

Personally, I, as an investor choosing a long-term investment in bitcoin, of course it will be beneficial if bitcoin is more stable, in order to track its movements without strong volatility. The more stable the currency, the more accurate and high-quality Analytics, and therefore the actions taken in relation to this currency. I absolutely accurately for stability and rare racing to the moon.

For Bitcoin's adoption to continue to grow it needs to exhibit a certain level of stability that will instill confidence and trust in the heart of users.

We've been particularly looking for a good market trend and of what we have now seems to be disappointing to us.
For me, I'll be favor to have a volatile market rather than to stable one. From those simple fluctuation we've given an opportunity to make gains, in fact, is that what we aiming for in a certain investment. It happen now and the market did it, we never look for its stability though.

I want to see a stable market that is constantly progressing and developing. so we can see how Bitcoin is developing and at the same time making very good money on this

I think its depend on perspective. If you asking on trader, he will prefer choosing volatile price because its profitable for them but if you asking long term investor, i am believe they will choosing stable price

I will probably vote for an unstable market because in such a market you can earn a lot more money

Bitcoin is too stable, in my opinion, we also do not need, but its growth in price from 6,000 to 20,000 dollars, and then fall again to 6,000 dollars, this is too much. Such price fluctuations also pose a threat to investing in Bitcoin, since there is no reasonable certainty about its price and it will simply repel it. In addition, as we can see, such price drops very badly then affect the entire market, this year there is practically no market, all altcoins are stagnant.

What do I want to see for bitcoin? I want to see business establishments start accepting bitcoin as alternative payment options, and maybe for companies to pay their employees with bitcoin. If companies do this, more people will be inspired to use not just bitcoin but other coins as well, regardless of the price.

I like to see a stable market because when the market stable we can know the true figure of the coins and we can judge the demand and supply forces of that coins so that a better strategy cane be made for bitcoin investment and to look at the bitcoin in the past few months it had not shown any abnormal price rise but the market were stable for the whole year and this may be the important reason for bitcoin stability. People love to see that bitcoin is stable and it can be a good time for investment.

what I want is a phased , where for now I still like bitcoin which is volatility. This volatility should be used for marketing strategies in getting public attention so that bitcoin can be known by the public first, and the next stage is stable prices when the public is truly ready to adopt cryptocurrency as a daily transaction tool,
if at this time the price of bitcoin is stable, it might take even longer to get a large number of users, because the cryptocurrency itself has not had so much impact on the world economy (no more than 3%)

I always go for stability, but that's because I'm actually using Bitcoin as a currency almost on a daily basis.

It feels good when people pay me in Bitcoin and still be happy afterwards that the price doesn't immediately rocket up like crazy. If there is one thing that will for sure discourage people from spending their coins, it is them feeling bad about having used Bitcoin as money while they just as easily could have kept it longer to catch that increase in price.

Replacing spent coins is an easy way to still catch future price increases, but why would regular people do that? Spending fiat is way easier and requires no further actions.

As a trader i wanted to see the price moving up and down so fluctuation is good for me, if the price is stable then i think their wont be much for traders and the coin will lose its value soon as users wanted the price to move up fast. If you see from the point of trader, they wanted the price should move up and down, then only they can trade.

I feel the volatility of Bitcoin is what gives it a very good edge and why so many investors want to get on board as they know their assets can multiply within a short period of time if invested adequately.

If you will ask me what I want to see for Bitcoin- a stable or a volatile market. Well I choose a volatile market because it is the nature of bitcoin it become famous because when someone heard Bitcoin the first thing come to their mind is the market price of it is unstable. For me that is the mark of bitcoin, its unstability in prices. Which is very unique and people will need to monitor their accounts to see how much is the changes of bitcoin price.

Perhaps if it were more or less stable, it would accelerate its adoption in many countries and its active use. But it seems to me that it is too early to talk about stability. Therefore, I choose a volatility. I still want to see the price fluctuate.

I think that the investors, traders, and hodlers have different ideas about this. But for me, i can say it is stable. As we can see its yearly statistical graph, bitcoin is positively increasing its value, and some hodlers and investors may say that it is volatile, since they are waiting for a time to earn profit.

not easy to make choices. Because bitcoin is also made to want prices to be more stable for price stability, it will support the goal while higher volatility will make it more difficult. so I will choose a stable market because it will attract business owners to accept bitcoin and have an economic boost. Higher growth potential than volatile markets.

Volatility is associated with Bitcoin and that is what makes it unique. The price fluctuation makes investors make a profit especially when they HOLD . If the value is stable there will be less investment

I look forward to a volatile and volatile market that will make it easy to find profitable deals. The higher the fluctuation and the higher the frequency, the more opportunities there are for trading, the trader does not need stability because the stability is always meager profit.

For me Im gonna choose Stable price and it will only happen when all of the people use it because there will be no doubts on anybody and all will just use bitcoin as their everyday needs.

   I agree with you mate, we can not avoid from the market volatile, as it has been part of its growing. But I want to see the stability of the market to engage people to penetrate cryptocurrency. And still hopeful for the massive growing and stability.

Voted for unsure, bitcoin known for its volatility and unpredictable market. Most people who engage bitcoin from the start already grasp the idea and its nature as being volatile and speculative, now movement seems stable and very little and trading is fun when there is a volatile market.

I choose volatile because this is how more people earn on bitcoin. If you are a trader then you will understand what I mean. Like most, being volatile has pros and cons also.

I prefer to work when the market is unstable. In this market I can earn faster. Although during the stability of the market, there is also an opportunity to earn, but much slower. Although perhaps the reason is the experience in the cryptocurrency market. It is possible that there are traders who earn equally quickly and in a stable market and volatile. If there are, please share your experience.

Honestly, I miss the days of Bitcoin volatility. I am sure that's what got most of us interested in bitcoin in the first place. Now the market is boring and we hardly make quick gains trading it. I can't help but wish for the return of that glorious vibe.

  Volatilization is partially became the accessary of dealing the instance of bitcoin price and it can be more challenging. We wish for the stability of bitcoin but we can merely accept the consequences and take responsibility about choosing the intact deliberations we create from the start we penetrated in the crypto world.

First of all Bitcoin is build as volatile movement of price. if you want to know what is my choice either stable or Volatile, I choose Volatile because stable price of bitcoin is not too much impressive and not generated big profit when it comes to make business of bitcoin, while volatile movement of price is sometimes you have a big chance to get big profit when the price is good. And about for transition of price going down is we have still a choice if we have  to stay for investment or quietly discharge for the main time while it is not a good price value.

I'd rather see a stable market. Right now it's only seen as an investment rather than a currency, and I don't think it's benefiting mankind as much as it could under these circumstances. It would actually create a more democratized world if more people use it.

If there is a guarantee for bitcoin price to be stable all the time then I think it will be more usefull. People can use it as a means of payment and I am sure more government will allow it to happen. But is it possible for bitcoin to be stable in price? I doubt it!

everyone will think the same as other people they want to see bitcoin and stable market prices I also think so, do not ask for things like that automatically the people around you will think the same as me, even if not in bitcoin even in the stock market everyone thinks

I see an an unpredictable bitcoin  (in a good way )  because it sometims goes down and goes up Maybe today bitcoin will fall but in the end bitcoin will rise which be predicted in 24 hrs in an normal  time.

Here bitcoin compare to bitcoin which one only needs time to fucos and work. Also a unstable for me why? From the word it self fucos on some other things that is righ about it please Bitcoin goes back in fort and which it keeps moving and that is because of the people who work  and invest on bitcoin.

For those who're new to this industry has a high chance on choosing the stable market, when I was new in investing to Bitcoin my only was to have an stable price but as the time goes by I realized that it takes a lot of time to earn with that kind of market status.

Right now the best for the market is the volatile. Why? We all know that volatile market is the unstable change of the price right? from this we might be at risk if we are a big investor or long term holders but for those investors who wants fast profit they ride the volatility of the market and take advantage at the dumps and sell at pumps that's what a good trader is. (According to my own definition)

After a long time now i want to see bitcoin market stable so that banks in the future will open ways for it the one reason which they were noticing that time is the bitcoin and crypto volatility but if the market become stable then i hope that banks have no other objections for it, and if a currency stable then people have trust and they keep it for long time while now i think that market is stable and the price is reach at $6400 a factual price of bitcoin and we trust it.

I'm not sure. Because stability is always good, many people love stability, including me, but many people also like to play with the price, and then you can make big profits.

How can you be sure that payments will be with Bitcoin? Firstly, we don't know whether volatility is the reason for not being accepted, but I'm sure the reason is not volatility. Secondly, why should it be Bitcoin? There are plenty of digital coins that can be used instead of Bitcoin and also they can create as much as they want.
Bitcoin's volatile nature makes it Bitcoin. Its being stable will also take away our profits as a result of not being accepted.

I personally would like to have a stabilized market for BTC.

Traders are attracted to bitcoin because of it volatility and investors will be attracted to bitcoin if it is steadily appreciating, so none of this
category will be interested in bitcoin if  become stable. I prefer volatility that is control by demand and supply.

I think it needs both, for profits and to attract investors it needs a period of volatility to see those ridiculous gains. However retailers won't adopt it unless it is stable

As a swing trader, I want to see a stable bitcoin market price because the highly volatile market is not good for the swing trader or investor.
more volatility and more panic generate more loss.

For Bitcoin's adoption to continue to grow it needs to exhibit a certain level of stability that will instill confidence and trust in the heart of users.

The nature of bitcoin is not design to have a stable price or fixed amount in the market and at that it is best left as an object of speculation and since bitcoin answer to the economic law of demands and supply it market will forever remains volatile. Having a stable price will likely affect the decentralized nature of bitcoin in a way that bitcoin market can be easily influenced.

Definitely stability is what we want to see. If Bitcoin is not stable, no one will ever use Bitcoin even though it is decentralized system.

Shorter term I would like to see a more volatile market, but longer term and removing my own personal interests, a more stable market would be very advantageous. A large issue bitcoin faces with its adoption is the volatility, retailers are not willing to accept it due to the level of risk that it exposes them to. Remove that and bitcoin is far more feasible as a day to day currency

Looking at your question, here I feel there will be two different answers according to the type of individual type itself.
1. They hope the market is more stable (for those bounty hunters or others)
2. They expect the market to fluctuate and continue to move up and down (usually they are traders, because that's where they can get profits)

At the moment I wish it could be hotter because it has kept a price for a long time and makes many investors feel boring.

3. They want the market to steadily increase at a moderate rate so that bitcoin adoption can increase and it can be used as intended instead of just as a vehicle for further profits in Fiat.

Disclaimer: not saying that's you, just saying that's a 3rd option.

I want to see volatile market than stable market because in volatile market is always changeable with respect to time which is better in investment but stable market has no benefit as volatile market.

I guess I am still used to the volatile market of bitcoin. Ever since it stopped there is not much to look forward unto but just wait for people to accept it in a larger scale.

I want the volatility back but if this is what the majority needs then I guess accepting it will not be a choice. Time to change the way of profits. ;D

This a toss of tail, eaxch side will actually justify and for me the crypto market is one venture that seems to be unpredictable before us all and in such situation we find ourself we only dont have to be thinking of prices that falls kn our favour but also lookat the scope of all. Whetther stable or volatile is just a matter of how many we supply and what is demanded.

Yes, we can't get more profits from a stable market, thus price fluctions is merely to happen. Though high volatility market is to risky as we thought but its gonna be suited for these kind of investment and a big chances to gain more.
As usual, loses is very often but we can manage to minimize it by having a good strategy and do have an effective planning ahead of time.

You ask about volatility but for me it is secondary. I would like to see bitcoin with a growing user base, widely adopted. Used for everyday spending as a cash equivalent. But what I am seeing is a stagnant coin with peaks in transaction fees whenever any serious price move comes along and (as an effect) adoption grows a little.

Growing adoption has proven itself to be a killer for bitcoin, but anybody will agree, that without the adoption there is really no bitcoin, either. And I am not speaking here about hodlers: when people start to use bitcoin for payment or to transact bitcoin en mass, the transaction fees grow and make it impossible to use bitcoin anymore.

This is the real dillema, which is only reflected in price moves and the volatility.

it's true because with the market experiencing turbulence and continuing to rise, the price of bitcoin can replace the losses that have been experienced in the past, because most investors want to have a high increase in the market....

I voted for stable but at the back of my mind, I wanted it to be volatile in some ways LOL ;D
We all know that the volatility issue of Bitcoin is real and anything might happen in the market within a short period of time, it may go skyrocketing or it may jump into a dip but this kind of issue might lessen when the mass adoption of Bitcoin happened in the whole world and not only a few people hodls the large amounts of Bitcoin because we know if a person hodls a huge amount of this Crypto Currency that person definitely has a control on Bitcoin's value because of its decentralized nature. Being a decentralized electronic cash doesn't mean that no one has the power to control its price and this is a false belief by other people. The community of Bitcoin decides what will be the price of Bitcoin especially if a person has a large amount of this Crypto Currency he has the ability to shake the whole Crypto space and the only thing that will stop this kind of manipulation of whales is a global mass adoption of this innovation in our monetary and payment system. This is just based on my own opinion and point of view don't take it too seriously. :D

I said that I wanted it volatile in some ways because I also do some tradings and the volatility is profitable especially if you're lucky on predicting what's gonna happen next. :)

I think its better to have volatile market which can bring you good and high income even it is risky but still it is good especially to the solid cryptocurrency. If you choose stable market it is hard to earn simply because there will short period of pump and dump so I will rather choose volatile market than stable market.

Of course I want to see the volatility of the market. But the value of bitcoin at this time is moving very slowly and decreasing in value. . I want to see the volatility of the market like last year, this year the market is stable for a long time and I feel depressed because of waiting so long.

It seems to me that a stable calm market without significant daily price fluctuations will suit the usual holder. For speculative traders, of course, a highly volatile, turbulent market with high liquidity and large price fluctuations would be better. Only in this way they will be able to consistently earn. But for the cryptocurrency itself, a calm market and low price fluctuations are much better, as investors like stability. Price stability can attract many people to buy cryptocurrencies.

if bitcoin is used as a bitcoin payment tool must be stable, but if bitcoin for investment and bitcoin trading must remain volatile, I prefer bitcoin which is unstable because it is far more profitable than stable bitcoin.

I would like bitcoin to be as stable or volatile as gold or whatever established asset one thinks is most similar to bitcoin.

I want to see a turbulent market, because we can use it by buying at the lowest price and selling it when we make a profit

I want to see a volatile market price! For one simple reason: If the market is volatile, so it is interesting to people and investors. And when the market is interesting to investors, more money is invested in it, the price of coins grows and all holders get rich!  ;)

I guess I'm leaning towards an unstable market. While bitcoin is developing, I want to make money by investing in it. And as soon as it strengthens, it will become stable for implementation as a currency.

Now I see bitcoin as a great investment. This is the most profitable investment that the market can offer today. So I put all my money into investing in bitcoin and wait for the unstable market to develop the scene.

You are right, stable Bitcoin can only be useful for payment, although I do not think it will replace paper money. The nature of Bitcoin is volatile and hope to continue as long as it offers freedom. So when it will stable, it loses own presence.

Stability won't be possible when people will be moving capital from other asset classes into bitcoin for the next decade.

That's just how it works with a new asset class. The existing assets people invested in will see money move out and into bitcoin.

Property investors should start realizing the return to hold fiat in property over something like bitcoin and a few high market cap altcoins, is not only more effort but lower returns with property over the next ten years.

This is not an easy question, because if the market is stable - then bitcoin can be implemented as a currency. And if it is unstable - it allows you to get a great profit. While I am more attracted to price fluctuations, as I really want to make money with bitcoin.

We already has a stable asset like Gold and currencies which serve as a check against inflation and to protect wealth. I think Bitcoin should be different. A volatile market will be best in order for traders to make money on the swing of the market volatility.

Right the volatility is more attractive and challenge for investor's to join in investing in cryptocurrency cause the investor's know the market price is unpredictable so this is a chance to earn more profit in there investment, if price is stable there is no chance to gain there investment cause the profit you gain is fix no increasing.

By nature, bitcoin will always be more or less stable, and more or less volatile.
However as time goes by, it should tend to decrease in volatility while it increases in value. So more stable but always a little bit volatile.

A stable market would be very good, but unfortunately that is not possible. but it is very favorable that it is volatile for expert traders.

Bitcoin and the market will stay volatile, I am sure. Volatility lets traders to make money. Let the cryptocurrencies be stable, and many guys that work with BTC and altcoins will start to lose their money.

Everybody would want the bitcoin to be more stable.

Volatile market is better, as it attracts more people to take a chance. Stable market would kill the interest in btc.

Many wanted stability in the cryptocurrency market, now bitcoin shows stability. But now people want it to grow in value, which means volatility. There is no growth only upwards, in this case people should be ready for the fall in its price too.

I prefer a volatile market because the bitcoin price that will continue to change makes me have the opportunity to be able to buy when the price is low and get a profit when the price rises again, if the market is stable it will be difficult to profit because the price will stabilize get a smaller profit

The way I see it, is that we need volatility to grow more mature. So I am all for more volatility we can go stable once mass adoption has been reached and it's accepted everywhere.

I want to see a volatile market for this will be the reason that I could get some earning on trading on it. Buying low market price for bitcoin and selling it when market price gone to some increase that is enough to earn. Then the cycle will then begin by buying another low market price value of bitcoin and sell it when market price will gone high. However, it will not be that easy and it will take time also to earn not that typically earn a hundred in just one day. Well, it will depend also on the volume of bitcoin you will trade. The higher volume of bitcoins you trade the higher profit you will get and the higher possibilities also that you will going to lose your money. Trading bitcoin will not guarantee you to earn for it will also be a reason for your loss. So just research first before involving this kind of activity here in cryptocurrency.

Being a trader who wants a stable market.? Volatility is why lots of people are invested into cryptocurrencies and wants to gain profit with it. Once it gets stable that means it will be used as a medium for transactions like money but with crypto advantages.

No not really, what I am seeing observing the forums here is that majority of users are hodlers. It means they are not interested in volatility, but rather in stable price growth.

Please don't confuse volatility (measure of size of price changes in a given (usually short) interval) with growth, which can happen with low volatility too.

Merriam Webster defines volatility as

Volatile will keep bitcoin and altcoin alive and developing, I can't imagine when all the value of coins is stable or maybe the same. I'm sure if that happens then the cryptocurrency enthusiasts will disappear.

I want a stable bitcoin market, because I'm not good at trading. if the market is stable, I can calm down because I don't need to think about prices and asset values that are down because of very volatile prices. but sometimes I need a volatile market to get profits quickly.

I want a volatile market that will help me find many opportunities in investment. The market is so stable that many steps make it difficult for the market to make a profit from it. I realize that the higher the risk, the higher the chance for us.

Of course I would like to see a market turmoil because that could make investors more profitable from the bitcoin price difference.

that's a good idea but we don't have the power to implement this in the crypto market, changes in bitcoin prices will continue to occur naturally from demand and supply. from votes many people also want price stability and price fluctuations, total voter is almost same. actually I'm neutral, I like being stable because it will be much safer, I like fluctuations because it's very profitable

If I am going to choose between stable or volatile market , I will choose volatile market because if the maket is stable then we are not able to earn huge profit. It will be risky . I know that most of you chose stable so no one can lose their money but we cant change bitcoin. The price is unstable and its a miracle if it becomes stable.

Voted for unsure, bitcoin known for its volatility and unpredictable market. Most people who engage bitcoin from the start already grasp the idea and its nature as being volatile and speculative, now movement seems stable and very little and trading is fun when there is a volatile market.

Volatility of cryptocurrency made this market more attracted,this characteristics of bitcoin is what people wanted here just like why we are here
Yes being volatile exposes us from risk and the possibilities of losing our capitals,but this same reason gives us the opportunity to gain and succeed in this market

So i vote for VOLATILITY

       It depends upon the preference of the user but for me, I am still undecided which brings me into confusion whether choosing a stable or a volatile market. Having a stable market is many people's dream which is really hard to achieve because even fiat currencies are also facing problems into stability yet it is just occassionally on small percentage compared to crypto. Regarding volatility, people possesses wanting to get engage into this type of market despite of risks because they can also see the opportunity of rising no matter what downfall happens. For me I might choose stable if the value will be staying on a good mark and volatile if I have the chance to take risks for an assurance of granting me a desirable payback or regain for what I have exerted. More opportunities of winning in short.

I have join crypto over 4 years and I have observe crypto based on graph so I can conclude that bitcoin consider as risky investment because of it's volatile value means that it can decrease up to 20% in 1 day !

Personally I'm prefer hold btc for the long term because I can achieve more profit rather than daily trade

I would say i like both. Volatile market will attract more traders and can give bigger profits however,stable market can attract businesses which is good coz a lot of country will surely legalize bitcoin if they see the stability of it. But then, it is still depends on the preferences of people.

I am more inclined to see the stability of bitcoin prices, because the stability of the bitcoin market has an influence on its votability. besides that it will also make the altcoin stable

the stability of the bitcoin market will indeed affect many voices, especially many people who want to get to know the bitcoin market even further. even though bitcoin is currently declining, but bitcoin can still attract people to get to know it more deeply.

It depends on what we want, stable can come in any form maybe when the market is down or when it is green but we all want a stable market of green and when the bull runs we can't avoid volatile market.

i would like to see a stable market for Bitcoin because it will attract investors and boom the market.

I hope that the market will become more stable with time. I consider these changes obvious. To my mind, this will happen until 2019 like experts forecast. I hope that this will allow us to sell btc at a higher price

I'm surprised I voted for stability but it seems many for a volatile market, many people like to be in a gamble a volatile market, can make you a profit but it can also lose your investment in just a snap I hope this is not the general consensus of the majority of bitcoin holders.

I probably would be lying if I said that I want to see a stable market, because as long as we observe price fluctuations and instability of bitokin, we can earn on the difference. But I would prefer to see more growth, but now the price drops prevail, unfortunately.

if I want to see the price of bitcoin and altcoin not as stable as bro. of course I always hope that the price of bitcoin and altcoin will immediately rise again. because in 2018 the price of the udan altcoin always drops sharply. so you need fresh air
 . untuk membuat para bitcoiners menjadi yakin terutama kepada para pemula. agar tetap berinvestasi dan tidak meninggalkan dunia cryiptocurrency.

I want to see a significant price increase and further stability. Falling prices make everyone very nervous and sell bitcoin, and it is absolutely not necessary. And stability will allow you to quickly realize the main goal of bitcoin-to become a currency.

   We may have different opinion on the above topic question but one thing remains, Profits for your investment. Market volatility affects not only Bitcoin but the entire Market, it maybe or either it is Crypto or ALTCOIN as posted on the market trading, with out the activity on the market, we can see the sluggish market, no takers and even gainer to that effect. Stability and Volatility of the market will always be there.

If it's for trading then volatility is the game but I personally want bitcoin to be an additional venue for being a global currency. With this in mind then it has to be stable. I'm sure in the near future it will be stable once a good amount of people understand it already.

I do not want the school to continue to stabilize in such a way, I want it to be more motionless, it may be more interesting for investors.

I think there is no need to change the nature of bitcoin it is really unstable and high on volatility from the start and many people really still believe or invest in it because of the in expected profit that we can possibly earn due to its unstable price. I think if bitcoin become stable the excitement and it's amazing features will become affected and I believe that it will going to down.

As investment is my major choice in cryptoworld, so i rather want bitcoin to be always volatile so that i can earn good / big profit when bitcoin will rise in a drastic manner. That is really what it takes if you are into crypto investment (you should always be a risk taker).

for the current bitcoin market price I think it is more stable, but I really like the price of the bitcoin market to be more volatile, because I can get a lot of profits with the turmoil of the bitcoin market.

I choose volatile for bitcoin cause in this term I have big chances to earn big profit than stable price value cause in stable price value you don't have opportunities to gain your profit and you don't have chances to hold your bitcoins for your future cause the value is stable.

Volatility lies everywhere! Even in life, there are ups and downs, times when there is more and times when there is less; this in itself is living! There is no stagnant process unless death! I choose volatility of $Bitcoin because its what makes trading "trading", it what makes you the money it is what differentiates the patient from the impatient, even in the stock market there is volatility; which is all tied around demand and supply and as these too continue to be part of life, volatility of $Bitcoin and every other thing would be here with us! Volatility makes me money.

I think with many more users years from now the price of Bitcoin will be much more stable.

I make money from the fluctuation of bitcoin, stable market as today makes me dare not buy or sell a large bitcoin. I'm looking forward to the change

i choose the volatile market, even taking into account the fact that i am new to trading, in a volatile market i had good profit results, given the sharp fluctuations in the price of bitcoin.

many choose answers like you and I also agree, if bitcoin tends to be stable at this time then there won't be anything that attracts new investors and even more FUDs will appear, I don't concentrate on words about gambling because the interesting side is a lot the volume involved and basically forms the fundamentals very well.

I personally prefer market fluctuations, because I have the opportunity to enjoy big profits, like 2017. If the price of bitcoin is stable, where are the benefits? Because traders or investors can get big profits when prices fluctuate.

As we all know Bitcoin is constantly moving and changing with positive news or bad news, changing according to supply or demand. As a result, the price change of Bitcoin is continuous. We must understand that its nature is not volatile.

You know, when the market is volatile, you have more chances to make money on this volatility. The cryptocurrencies change their prices, and if you have skills, you can get your profit.

If the price of bitcoin is stable - it will mean that it will be controlled by someone, and this contradicts his idea. I believe that the market should be decentralized and depend on supply and demand. The volatility of Bitcoin and other crypto-currencies will attract a lot of investors.

I want bitcoin to be volatile. The biggest amount of people who bought or intends to buy BTC are looking for a profit. But today only whales get profit and I want to change that.

Whether Btc becomes stable or volatile, both come with considerable merits and demerits. I would like it to be volatile. Come to think of it, what do you think convinces people most to join Btc?? Is it due to the fact that people assume they can make enough profit based on its volatility or it is for its acceptance. Obvously, the profit is the major pulling factor and that cannot be if btc is stable.

Of course, I want to see a stable market that users trust

of course, I want to see volatile market prices, when the market is volatile, we can buy and sell bitcoin, volatile markets always create profits for us.

and stable is only good for a small or large transaction.

Seriously I'd like bitcoin to be a bit volatile, I so much like the uncertainty in the crypto market. No one knows what the next move will be and it has many people hooked compared to if it becomes stable, people will no longer have to dedicate as much time to it as they do today. A lot of the noise will probably die.

I am prefer choosing stable growth for bitcoin. For long investor like me, i am prefer stable growth because its good for our psychology. With stable growth, it will give chance for others crypto for growing too

For a stable price like now if you don't have big capital then you won't be able to make big profits. because the current price changes
are very small margins. thats why I like volatile prices more because it is more profitable quickly

Of course, we want to see a stable market so we can buy a lot of bitcoins or if it becomes unstable I hope the price of bitcoins keeps growing and we all can make a lot of money. But we have to be realistic the market in the next year is going to be extremely volatile there are like 3000 cryptocurrencies   and more every year (some are actually quite promising) which means more competition and an unstable market for better or worse ;)

I'd vote for volatile market, as volatility gives us more opportunities to gain profit. Both traders (long- and short-term) and hodlers can benefit from volatile prices. Stability is nice but not so profitable.

I do not prefer to see the stable price of bitcoin but I like volatility. Stable price makes me angry and disappointed from a couple months bitcoin becomes stable there is nothing a significant change of price. I would like to see bitcoin will pump again like the previous December. From my personal point of view, I love the volatile price.

Agree with you. Btc stability means no interest in trade, and actually no interest in investing in btc. Traders and investors will leave. So the only valid way for btc is to remain volatile. These days isn't almost a stable coin, but  the price and volume spikes must come soon.

While volatility will help traders make a lot of profits, it will keep a lot of people too away from using bitcoin. If we want it to be used frequently by people’s as a mode of transaction then I think it needs to be stable to gain such a trust from the entire public. I want to to be stable so that everyone can use it without fear or panic.

I agree with you here dude. And let's be honest, not many people can take advantage of an extremely volatile market. Losses are even more prevalent if you don't know how to properly ride volatility. Amd i think stability is where we really are headed to anyways.

Although I may be very selfish but I'm wondering why we need to care that other people will fear or not fear with bitcoin, using bitcoin or not is their right, if they accept and use bitcoin, it is good for them and vice versa, we can not because of their fear, we ignore the profits, accept a stable market. And so, what I always wanted to see at bitcoin was a volatile market, which would give me more opportunities to make money, stable market is never what people here want, I always believe so, stability is just the wall that prevents us from stepping into wealth

We all know Bitcoin is constantly moving and changing with positive news or bad news, changing with supply or demand. As a result, the price change of Bitcoin is continuous. We must understand that its essence is not volatile.

I want the bitcoin market to be stable like last year. because if it is unstable there are many people who do not benefit. and not many people invest. everyone just waits and holds the bitcoin they have until the price is really stable.

I think to make bitcoin as future payment , stable price are required because if that price too volatile will make people hard to adapt bitcoin as a future payment

The cryptocurrencies will be always volatile.  We cannot do anything to stabilize it. Moreover, Bitcoin volatility helps traders - they make money on it. I am used to the fact that BTC is waving.

Anyone wants the Bitcoin market to stabilize. If Bitcoin is stable it will probably become a popular and widely used currency. If Bitcoin is stable, there will be more opportunities for Bitcoin to grow.

I like bicoin fluctuations, because it can provide big profits when prices soar. If the price of bitcoin is stable, what are the benefits of bitcoin users? For now the majority of bitcoin users are traders or investors, so they don't like it when the price of bitcoin is stable.

There has already been a paradigm shift, thus, the interest of users of Bitcoin have shifted to its investment instead of using it more often on daily basis to purchase goods and items. With this at hand, the only favourable condition for Bitcoin investment is the volatile nature. Through this, we can see spikes in price.

I want to see a stable bitcoin market, why? because if the bitcoin market is stable, all altcoins I have maybe also stable, the price of the coins that I have will not continue to up and down, in that sense, my assets will not up and down. they will remain. but if the bitcoin market volatile, my assets will also follow, can go up and down. and if bitcoin drops suddenly and doesn't go up like now, maybe I will lose.

The beauty of Bitcoin is the volatile state of it , the gives avenue for new investors to benefit.We called it stable when there is an increase in market price and is less volatile and this is what every investor is wishing to see because they believe if Bitcoin is stable other cryptocurrency will follow suite.

Bitcoin will still be volitile. Because we can not control every decision of the people. So they can sell or buy. So it will affect the market to be volitile. And the market will be only stable if big players lose, who can buy and sell lots of bitcoins.

The instability is more alluring for financial specialists and newcomers, since it is spurring individuals to purchase, exchange, hold Bitcoin with the expectation that the BTC cost increments exceedingly later on and achieve the most elevated amounts. On the off chance that it has a steady value, I figure more individuals will lose this expectation, and it will influence the BTC exchanging volume.

Both have their own advantage, if stable bitcoin market this is good to be a future currency because everyone want their currency be stable not so volatile,that they used this to buy their daily needs, nobody wants to loose their money so dramatically on daily basis. if volatile market like now this would attract traders and big fish to invest and make money from here and normal people can also take risk to invest and can earn. so both situations have their own advantages.

Price is very volatile as you want, but the price of BTC it is not up but is going very fast and in my opinion will continue. If selected, I want it to stabilize at a fairly high price, so I can get them and I will not as sad as the present  :(

I totally agree with you. I also want a stable market, it would help to attract more investor coming to bitcoin. Sooner or later, the government will accept bitcoin as a currency.

It will be great if Bitcoin will be used as a normal cryptocurrency but I disagree with it and I know a lot of people would do too since they don't want a stable Bitcoin, they want the volatile Bitcoin.

A lot of people got into Bitcoin because of it's volatility, without it, a lot of people might be focusing on other cryptos like ETH or other altcoins in the market. With Bitcoin's volatility, a lot of people was amazed how high it can get when it is pumping. It will never be reached if Bitcoin is stable and I don't think a lot of investors will want it stabilized because of that.

Stable Bitcoin is less stressful and generate miniman profit unlike volatile market where priceay rise suddenly or drop suddenly this is more stressful and risky but can generate huge profit if you can get in and get out at the right time.

I want to see a stable market. Looking at the sharp jumps in prices, I was pretty tired. I want to feel stability and confidence in the future.

Bitcoin probably will never be able to become a completely stable coin. In any case, volatility will always be present. A cryptocurrency market and volatility is essentially the same thing ;)

for me, what I want is a stable but slowly rising bitcoin market price. I'm not a trader, so I don't need a significant price increase in one night. I don't want to be rich overnight, what I expect from Crypto is the growing trust of the society towards this industry. because crypto is basically a real financial system revolution, we have to support this industry in a better direction. don't just want the fastest profit.

i want to bitcoin to be stable market

In my opinion. I prefer bitcoin to have a stable price like gold or silver. so we can use bitcoin as a currency or a medium of exchange that has a fixed price. and everyone will not be afraid if they have or use bitcoin because they have a stable value. and price stability will be far more profitable for all users of crypto currencies.

I like to see bitcoin more stable then volatile because I think that will attract more investors and drift out the "get rich fast" people...

I will rather prefer a stable and ranging price of bitcoin which is most useful for traders while trading , of course trending market or volatile market is usually very risky a stable market is a sure bet for profit making using buy low and sell high strategy repeatedly.

I will choose the stable price of bitcoin mate but not this current price of bitcoin. If the right time will come that bitcoin will be back to its all time high  thats the time i consider the price to be stable. And for now, i rather choose only the volatility of bitcoin and other coins in the market.

haha. Then what about the people who will not have bought btc before it's fixed at its ATH? What would be their additional motivation to buy? I prefer a volatile market with uptrends and downtrends. I would choose the cycles to be shorter, but that's also impossible.

I think the answer to this question is dependent on one’s goal for crypto. For traders, I think they’ll opt for volatility because that means potential for more profit, but for practical and future forward thinkers who want to see a future with a fully functional digital currency, they’d want stability. How can we strike a balance between the two?

I prefer Bitcoin just as it is because it is decentralized and its market price is not subjected to any regulation, hence it is determined by the cumulative effort of the entire crypto community members. It is from the volatile nature of Bitcoin that investors see spikes in price and make more profit. What i wish to see in Bitcoin is for several countries to legalize it to increase its usage and demand.

 if we want bitcoin still profitable, we must accept its volatility. I believe that if bitcoin is stable, there is no high profit anymore.

Traders and hodlers earn their profits through bitcoin's volatility. Stable bitcoin means less or no profits for the traders because there is no price movement or fluctuation. Those who invested for long term will also need fluctuations, mostly uptrend to reach their desired investment targets. If bitcoin have a fixed price, it will no longer attractive to the investors and traders because it take time to go up.

I want Bitcoin to become stable and strong so that we could use it as currency anywhere in the world with equality unlike volatility, in which it will just make Bitcoin to become cheap and useless in a market condition like this. Anyway, this is the main goal of the Bitcoin when it was created to become a strong currency.

Volatile for all the traders and Stable for all the genuine enthusiasts  :D

No doubt, everybody is waiting to see a stable bitcoin market.

Voted: Not sure!

Reason: Both could have seeming advantages and disadvantages. A volatile market provides more speculation opportunities. Of course, that also means people could lose more money, and it could also result in no trust in Bitcoin by the general public except a few, and could ultimately lead to its demise. A stable market, on the other hand, would mean fewer speculation opportunities, but it could mean much greater adoption... potentially, as not only would HODLers start using their digital tokens as a means of exchange, but stability could help win over more trust from the general public. So it really depends on what Bitcoin fans want. Do they really want a universal, decentralized means of exchange that is adopted on a mass scale? Calm waters is what you want. Do they want just an alternative and more volatile form of the stock market and currency exchanges, with an even more unsure future? Rapids.

Cyberius team.

But for traders, most of them needed the price of Bitcoin is volatile, because with volatile price
will make them can benefit. Whereas if price Bitcoin always stable then difficult to get profit when they trade.

For me i want it volatile because with the volatility it gives more chances to our investment to grow faster but of course we cannot control the downside of the market. If the market will be stable it would be longer for our investments to earn potential income.

I wish it can be stable but wishing alone cannot change the nature of Bitcoin which is high volatility.
The high volatility is what makes Bitcoin Bitcoin.
Remove it or make Bitcoin market stable, and you would have succeeded in defeating the purpose of it's creation.

I think that the market that bitcoin should be volatile. Because if the market that bitcoin will become stable So it will not be of special benefit to us. And if Bitcoin keeps that market volatile. So we will get good benefits from him many times. And sometimes there will be some disadvantages too. But we will take the right decisions at the right time. So we will have less loss in the volatile market.

I wanted to see a constantly growing and progressive market, but I can’t say that I want to see an unstable market as this suggests that bitcoin can fall and cost 0

Both of them have advantage and disadvantage for the users indeed. If btc price volatile, traders will be able to gain more profit, or more losses.
If the btc price stable, it will be good for the holders. So, i think i will prefer for btc price going stable in the market.
The unstable price in the market causing peoples afraid to buying coins, and the price will going worse.

volatility of the bitcoin has make it not to be accepted by business as a form of payment. many business that want to tap from the advantages of blockchain technology are making u-turn due to high volatility of the price. Nobody want to incur debt. volatility will only attract speculators which might bring both negative and positive news about bitcoin. In my own opinion, bitcoin need a stable market in order to attract real business.

Well, for me, my choose is that, I want to see  Bitcoin to be volatile crypto currency in the market. It is just for my opinion. Because, volatility is more attractive for people like me as newcomers, also for lots of investors. Why? because volatility motivates people to buy, trade as well as hold Bitcoin crypto currency, hoping that the Bitcoin price in the market will rise in the future.

A good question, btc price has gone volatile in the market exchange with the other altcoins as well.
I prefer to want a volatile price of btc than stable price. Because if btc was stable, it would not gone to $19k last year.
The stable price will causing btc to stay in the bottom, and rising very slowly, but stable like gold price.

I want to see the crypto market volatile, it's easy to go up and down. because I am a trader who is looking to profit from volatile crypto market prices. if the price of bitcoin is easy to up and down like now, we can more easily take profits, but if stable, we will difficult to take profits.

Am surprise many people are voting for the volatile market and that is really incredible but am for a stable market though. I believe we need more investors to invest in the world of cryptocurrencies, I strongly believe that for the market to be investor friendly, we need to make the crypto market to be relatively stable.

My vote is volatile market, so we earn profits especially with traders. If the price of bitcoin stabilizes, investors will lose interest.
It will be used for payment and there is no reason to hold a bitcoin.

Volatility is inevitable at this early stage of BTC, it will only become stable after the price has soar to the extent that new money is not entering the BTC market anymore and either ways no dumping too. If BTC is to be considered a currency, then it must be stable but as an asset it doesn't need to be stable.

I think this is majorly affected by how you see or use Bitcoin as a currency or investment. Bitcoin was originally launched as a virtual currency for making payments all over the world. From this point of view I thing price stability will be more desirable as this will encourage the participation of business and merchants in Bitcoin world. This will impart more acceptability to Bitcoin. But from the view point of traders or investors a volatile market would be desirable.

Only high volatility of cryptocurrency makes it possible for traders to earn money. Stability is a swamp with minimal income, for me this option is not acceptable.

That is why, the market will be always volatile. I do not think that something or somebody can make it stable. It is simply impossible. The best traders make big money on the volatility.

Now I see bitcoin as a great and profitable investment. So I put all my money into investing in bitcoin and wait for the unstable market to develop the scene.

This statement is correct. Volatility lets the traders make the money. They risk but they win finally. Stability is for those people, who do not yet understand the main principles of trading.

I don't want to see bitcoin stability because it won't help an inch. Dollar isn't stable, pound's isn't stable, euro isn't stable, my own local currency isn't stable and that's part of what that's making it valuable in the world trading market. So volatility is what I need and we need for bitcoin not stability.

Bitcoins general characteristics  is volatile in the market so that the market trading level can be increased its maximum level. A wise invester will prefer for the volatile market to the day trading to make money.while on the stable market means the day traders cannot make money by doing the day trading..The bull and bear movement is better for the traders concerned to make money so that the trading volume also can be increased on daily basis.Bitcoins feature also indicate the volatile nature, it is a decentralized one with anonymity.Its all transactions are recorded in an electronic ledger with the block chain technology. The block chain technology is formulated for the proper functioning of the bitcoin.It is a new from of economy which can changes the face of the world and found suitable to the modern era. Bitcoin features are just contrary to the current form of economy and the concepts. Bitcoin is with a strong net work systems linked with the modern technology.Finally the bitcoin including the block chain technology can change the face of the global economy..
.

A stable bitcoin showcase makes it simple to exchange things that are not select to the worldwide market. The activity presently is let the bitcoin organization enable you to spread more individuals think about bitcoin or bitcoin later on. A stable market is helpful for those people who want to exchange but the volatile market is helpful for the trader. So as a trader, I want to see a volatile market.

The volatility of the bitcoin is one of the risks that you are going to face if you have bitcoins. I am using the volatility of the bitcoin as a advantage when I trade bitcoins because I can earn profit from dumps and pumps of the bitcoins.

Volatility means risk, investors that are rational avoid risk

Poor morons will embrace risk because they have nothing to lose, already being poor.

A rich person will never risk, because the thing he fears most in life is being poor.

Mathematicians have studied 'how to be rich' for 100's of years now, so volatility modelling is well understood for any time-series involving value, like bitcoin.

Experts also understand the parabolic-rise, as seen in BTC 2017, and they always  end in collapse, without exception.

Day-Traders, or flippers .. The morons of BITCOIN who see it as nothing but a video game, will in the end get hosed out by the exchanges, as the 'house always wins'.

Yes, we need volatility, but not so great as we see it now. Actually, the guys, who want to work on a stable market will be disappointed. They will never see this stability. Cryptocurrencies prices bounce always.

Yes ofcourse i want to see the stable market conditions. First of all we need to have the taxing system with every country. It will make me fell safe. And then we need to minimize the scam situation. Also we need to change the ICO system for all cryptocurrency sake.

Now for me the priority is to earn money by investing in bitcoin. This income will be the most profitable if the price continues to fluctuate, and therefore grow. Therefore, I prefer to observe an unstable market to make good money on cryptocurrency.

In fact, it is difficult to answer unequivocally, because a stable and unstable market has its advantages. A stable market will allow us to start using bitcoin as a currency. But at the same time, the unstable market allows you to earn on cryptocurrency. So I have not yet decided and just watch the real events in the market.

Of course, I like everything, I want to make the most of bitcoin, and this is the best suited unstable market. But I understand that it is very important for the technology itself that the price is more or less stable. Therefore, I am for this version of the market position.

I think that btc has a volatile market but it is just temporary. In the future i am going to use it even if the market doesn't become green because i can benefit from the long-term investment

I chose volatile because in my opinion bitcoin is still not stable because sometimes the price can be very high and there are some moments when the price suddenly falls so long as this bitcoin is a currency that has not been stable. maybe in the future bitcoin can be stabilized

the thing is, I don't want to see Bitcoin or any crypto as investment, I want to see Bitcoin as a currency that is widely accepted around the world..

I want only one cryptocurrency to have a stable price, it would be great if the coin is BTC because it already has a very large community
the reason is because I really want to use cryptocurrency as a universal transaction tool and can be accepted by the wider community without any big risk

WHile everyone has the either way..  ::) Well I guess what I want is what is best for both parties.. yes we can't control the value of bitcoin in the market but still we desire to have it stable..whatever that be for as long as we can earn a profit one way or the other.

Thats right. from that we will definitely see the answers people will choose to be stable and volatile depending on their interests in using bitcoin. but prices in the market will not be forever stable and not always volatile. I hope there is a new platform so that the use of bitcoin for currencies can be easier. where fluctuations will not be an obstacle for the seller or buyer

In the traditional field, money has three main uses: exchange media, means of value storage and unit of account. Although different uses require different attributes of money, tools for storing stable values are indispensable to every economy. In the Internet world, there is no original value tool.

So recent price declines may remind investors of the rise and fall of asset prices and their high volatility, suggesting that Bitcoin may not be a good way to store wealth, but it may be worse as a currency.

But the exploration of Bitcoin prices has always been an interesting journey, and the reasons for the rise and fall of Bitcoin have also been widely applied to speculation. Exposure to various markets still plays an important role in the cause of concern about Bitcoin, although data show that the volatility caused by this correlation is slowly declining from the previous high.

I want to see for bitcoin is a stable one, because i want bitcoin to become a real currency and accepted by people around the world and many business start using bitcoin too as a payment and as a currency. I'm sure if bitcoin have a stable price, many countries will accept bitcoin.

In contrast to you, I just want to see that the value of bitcoin is always unstable, I do not need government or businesses, even people around it accept it as currency or a payment method because this problem does not bring me and many people here the greatest benefit. The stability of bitcoin leads to the stability of crypto, and when the market is too stable, traders and investors will have nothing to do, while the market is volatile, it is a perfect condition for everyone to work, make money and build a better life.

For day traders the more volatile the market the more opportunity to earn. Gambler likes volatile market they saw this as an opportunity to earn more profit  though this is not good for newbie traders we din't have choice but to ride the market. For me volatile market it more challenging than the stable one.

Let me be honest and I want every one to be honest, I know that none of us would have been attracted to bitcoin if bitcoin was stable and the price was still the same price from the day it was launch. I got captivated when my brother showed  me his wallet and the profit he has gotten just in few months.

For Bitcoin to remain in the heart of it users and holders, it will be as a result of it volatility. Even the attraction from the community was based on Bitcoin volatility, stable coins are not as important as the volatile ones like Bitcoin.

I would prefer if bitcoin remains volatile because that is it's core feature.
Volatility is what actually makes bitcoin bitcoin.
Anything less than volatility would mean it's structure needs to be changed to centralized.
Volatility makes the Cryptocurrency market interesting also.

I like to see a volatile market rather than a stable one cause volatility is very boring when it comes trading you'll only make little profit from a stagnant price where in volatility its like everyday payday you can even make a living out of it, if you really know what you're doing. That's my reason why i like a volatile market.

I prefer bitcoin to be an volatile market or a market that has large fluctuations. That's because if bitcoin has large fluctuations it will definitely be very profitable if used for trading or even investment. I think bitcoin was indeed created as an asset so it is feasible to be used as a trade. If the price of bitcoin is as stable as it is today it will certainly be very boring, moreover it's still rare to use bitcoin as a currency. If that happens I think people's interest in bitcoin will disappear. So it would be better if bitcoin becomes an volatile market.

I see that alot of users here comment for bitcoin to remain being volatile . the poll also shows that volatility wins over stability . count me in as i also vote for volatility   .  this is the only way that we can earn huge return for our invested capital  though not all times because btc are likely prone to crashes  .

Few didnt like this fact , because maybe they are unpatient enough to wait  .  they also think that btc being stable can be more acceptable by most people  ( which i think not true at all   )  if people really like btc,  they should adjust by them selves  .

I am not agree with you idea because I think bitcoin is digital currency if it will have stable price and value who will take interest in it, people are investing because it use to change the price and makes profit for people so it will not give them any benefit so it will not remain interested anymore so I think volatility it plus point for crypto currency.

What you expect will happen, but with the volatile market. Bitcoin won't go stable, if that happens then I'm sure it is losing its importance. The major circulation of bitcoin happens through the trading exchanges. When there isn't any more volatility the exchanges doesn't have anything to do with. It'll be same as the fiat that we use around.

Personally I'd prefer to see a stable Bitcoin in term of price but it would be better to see it stabilized at a higher price. I think that a price of ~10k USD is more closer to Bitcoin's potential.

If price would be stable, this would bring new investors on crypto market as one of the market's weaknesses is the lack of predictability.

i would like to see a more stable prize but this is nearly impossible .....be course most people buying there bitcoins as an investment to sell them on any time with profit.
Not much people buying Bitcoins to pay something ......

regards

Yes its true since small profit will still be matter and if we play in a more stable market, then maybe many institutions will start to adopt. Maybe the reason why some businesses are still not accepting cryptocurrency because of too much volatile, so we need to be more stable this time.

The bitcoin market like every other markets is known to be volatile, and it has been seen that the crypto market is highly volatile, which in turn has scared most potential investors away. It is on a certain note that the market cannot be stable, as it is moved by so many factors. But in my own opinion, i still think that a certain level of stability would make the market better.

if we hope that bitcoin can become a global currency then it must fulfill the requirements, one of which is that the value of bitcoin may not experience too high a jump and a decrease too low, because a price change that is too far can make the business lose too much if the price moves too fast suitable to be a global currency. because businesses all over the world really need a stable currency. because the unstable value makes the trade suffer losses.

I personally want bitcoin to be unstable because with an unstable value I can use it to make a profit by buying when the price goes down and sells when the price rises. with an unstable value will appear to provide a pleasant challenge. ;) ;D

Bitcoin is known to be very volatile, where the rate of increase or decrease is so sharp that until now it has not been able to become the official currency of any country, it still functions as an alternative digital currency where users are in their own community.
The government still sees many weaknesses in using bitcoin, one of which is the increase in price fluctuations. But I am sure for the future there will be adjustments that accommodate users and the government so that they can be used as official currencies.

Wise traders loves to take the challenge and play with volatile market, the sway is something like an open doors for taking the opportunities,
with this unstable value it keeps attracting people who have good knowledge regarding to this business, the more they risk the higher the chance
to earned much decent.

How do then  weigh the performance of Bitcoin if the volatility is removed?  Would you like a situation where nothing  changes no matter how much money or people are attracted to Bitcoin. At least fiat currencies respond to this fundamental changes why not bitcoin.

Anyway, Bitcoin is more than a stablecoin, do not forget this. It could act as both currency and share. Share represents the performance of a company

I remember back then many people complained about the inflationary aspect of the dollar/fiat currencies, today  nobody talks about it any more.

Looking at the existing survey there is indeed a difference between stable prices and fluctuating prices, many people like stable prices because they are safer, but it seems that more traders like fluctuations because they produce greater profits

for any currency to achieve it's aim, it must be volatile, ie flexible, if bitcoin becomes stable, then there wouldn\t be any reason whatsoever to hold it as a store of value, because it price will neither experience an upward or downward thread and that will mean no return on investment for investors and holders of the coin.

That is never going to happen taking into account the Futures that dived in. Now, this BTC that we are using is more of an asset and cannot really be said a currency under any terms because volatility is the destiny of Bitcoins and that is why it is becoming famous and being adopted everywhere not as a currency, but a tradable asset. I love and prefer volatility over stability because it gives us a chance to earn more on our limited BTC accumulations. But institutions will definitely not want this and they will try their best to show the last big bull run, then dump and then stabilize (in my words, control) BTC for a major long period.

Bitcoins are been regulating with a super speed since the time they were launched being as a volatile currency. Bitcoins are a great source of investment/trading for a majority of peoples and they can only have profits out of trading bitcoins if the price remains volatile. If the Bitcoin markets get stable than there would a decrease in the amount of trading which would also deduct the demand for bitcoins which indeed won't be expected as the prices would start downreaching.
I personally, don't want to see bitcoin markets getting stable. Volatile markets keeps the cryptocurrencies a way different from the centralised currencies having stable markets.

Although what is desirable by everyone is a stable market but of the truth what is available for now is a volatile market, the higher the crowd the more difficult it becomes to manipulate bitcoin price but until we get there when the crowd will decide the market, the wales will always have their way in market price manipulation.

Well, for some investors, Bitcoin being a stable investment will be great. You don't need to worry about your investment and I think it will be more popular than ever. Being popular means it will be also having great price pumps, that will invite more investors to invest on Bitcoin and also to other crypto currencies though we can't do anything about that now.

I've been chosen a volatile market, ain't sure if how long you've said the stable market and continue to grow up without downtrend.
I am very excited to see the former status of this currency. A volatile market is better than sustainable since you can actually develop and improve your analysis when it comes to the value.

I have won a lot of times in a volatile market compared to this so-called sustainable market people consider as coma.  So yes, I'd pick volatile than the sustainable market.

But stability of bitcoins will make trading a way difficult which will lead in the decreased amount of traders. Even the stock traders are highly appreciated by bitcoins due to the unstable volatile markets which gives a lot of opportunities to make good profits by holding bitcoins untill the price is pumped. It is "us" who manipulate the price for bitcoins by increasing/decreasing the demand and considering the demand and growth for bitcoins i hardly think that bitcoins can ever be a stable market

In my opiion,the price of bitcoin need to get stable to have all the benefits from it or else it will just kept by us a dump and bump coin to make money.

But the volatility of bitcoin prices have a big role in making it so much popular in very less time period but in the wrong way that bitcoin is a quick way to become rich.

There are coins specifically meant for stability like USD and if Bitcoins also have a stable coins then no need to trade it. Volatility of market is good for trading and speculations; hence bitcoins should be volatile for that purpose.

I myself want Bitcoin to remain in its fluctuating nature. when bitcoin is always stable, how people will benefit if volatility is not in the market. perhaps with that volatility distinguishes cryto differently from trading other assets. maybe with a high level of volatility can make people interested in buying and investing with crypto. and they can also trade by utilizing that volatility to earn income.

I think BTC cannot be a stable coin, many people get rich because BTC has high and fast volatility. Decentralized is the main system that controls volatility and supported by trading activities on the market. my simple answer is, I choose BTC volatility.

but on the other side, BTC volatility is the reason for some countries to reject BTC, because BTC will only give benefit for some people who understand crypto graphics.

Always the market needs to be volatile, without which it is same as the common currency that we use in our daily life. Bitcoin being volatile have made the community get stronger, because looking the handful of opportunities through the volatility large sum of funds get poured to the trading platform which helps with growth.

I prefer the fluctuating price of the bitcoin market because we can profit from fluctuations. if the price of bitcoin is stable we cannot speculate and make a profit. I prefer bitcoin to be used as an investment tool rather than as a currency. because if you want bitcoin to be used as a currency then the value must be stable. and I prefer to make bitcoin a trading and investment tool. because we already have fiat money as a means of payment and currency.

What I want to see from bitcoin is not just a volatile market. I look more at the technology carried by bitcoin. Besides that, innovations launched from time to time also concern me. For example, innovation to bring more bitcoin ATM machines in several countries. I hope that this innovation can compete with potential altcoins so that bitcoin can still maintain its existence. The key, the benefits that can be felt in real terms are the most important things.

I want both. Does that even make sense?  ;D

What I prefer is some sort of quick cycles of boom and bust, of course with the ceiling value slowly increasing with each cycle. We hope this bearish trend will eventually break, what's agitating people is how long it has been going on.

I've voted for not sure, both have advantages and also disadvantages for BTC.

The volatility can be a good part to spend your BTC faster to avoid speculation but it's also a reason to hold them, when you want to speculate for price increase - long-term oder short term. For daily use case a low volatility would be better and attract more people using BTC.

I will prefers to see a stable bitcoin market whose price fluctuation and volatility is very minimal which will create opportunities for a decent trading and usage as a digital currency I knew people wants a very high volatile market due to their inability to trade but will rather buy and hodl while waiting for the green days ahead but will be disappointed when the price is Red just as we had been experiencing for several months.

A volatile market will never make bitcoin reach the goal and aim of being a currency for worldwide usage , it will be difficult for people to invest in it . At think point we need to stand with what we believe and make it happen.many people will rate it only interested in  short time project of several pump activity. That’s our choice if
We are are only concerned about now and not the future.

 A high and stable bitcoin price is better than volatile for me. It will be a currency if it is stable. Establishment like stores will accept it as payment not worrying they  may lose money because the value is fix.

For me, a volatile market can help more for bitcoin to increase it's value unlimited and through volatile market we can make more profits and also it will attract more investors to invest and continuesly patronizing the bitcoin as digital currency. Also volatile market will give more attraction and eagerness for all traders.

I make my stands clear, I choose volatile. It is always sad people only talk about the negative side of the volatility nature of Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market at large. However, within this same volatility nature, Bitcoin can rise from 0% to 100%. This is what gives its investors and holders much profit.
