If Bitcoin had a stable price, would it still be as popular?

[Dapallo]

Do you think if BTC had a stable price which could only be altered by $0.01-0.10 it would still be as popular and as used?

Of course bitcoin will remain popular. because it is a digital currency, different from fiat currency.

I agree because this is something new and not something old. People will still think that this is the future. So they would use it i will also just store my money on it.

Because bitcoin would not go high and it will not fall down hard.

[Prasinos]

Yes. Because of the fact that it is decentralized. If we are talking about stable price then it should be high enough since the demand in that market would be goods of high value plus the fact that there are many participants in the market. So stable price would be pretty high still and it would be popular still.

I doubt that.  Stable means no changing and if bitcoin will have this it is possible to be stuck at high value but also possible at low price. If I am ot wrong bitcoin is not this popular when its price was just below $1000 and now that it had grown many people became interested on it and in earning it. Its popularity is what driving its price and more investors means more money.

I certainly do doubt that bitcoin will be like this if it is not popular because if that is the case then there will be no graphs and "talks" about it.

I suppose even if Bitcoin is stable in its price it will be still popular. Certainly, its popularity will be not as high as we can see it now. It wil buy people, who do not want dealing with banks and their commissions and hate taxes, and they will keep BTC on their wallets.

No, it would not be so popular if the price of bitcoin is stable. It cant attract some investors and traders. And in some ways it cant attract many people to join here in bitcoin. Now the price of bitcoin is high so it became famous in many countries and use this as payments.

I would guess most probably not and the only people who would flock to such type of a coin or market would be those of traditional markets. It would fit their scheme very well and at the same time would not change what

they do on a daily basis. Hard to imagine normal people entering this type of market because the gains wont be as massive and the little guy needs massive gains to see and real returns on their money.

[CarnagexD]

yes, if bitcoin become a stable currency then it will get popularity all over the world, as with that more of the business will believe on it and they will not feel fear for its price drop, and so if it get establish on online market people will also start to adopt it.

I guess if bitcoin's price would be stable it can be a positive outcome and negative outcome at the same time. Some people would take it positively because they will not doubt to invest or buy such because they are sure about the price of it. While some can also take it negatively because they might not invest on bitcoin anymore. Because at first thwy are interested only in the fact that the price increases.

Stability is what people are looking for. People like to experiment and with the experimentations come big expectations when investing in BTC. People invest hoping that they will get rich someday, maybe even overnight but in the end, when they see small drops from a current state of value, people would be satisfied with the stable price that would give them some kind of security for their investment.

[Yankeestyle]

Individuals contribute trusting that they will get rich sometime in the future, possibly overnight yet at last, when they see little drops from a present condition of significant worth, individuals would be happy with the steady value that would give them some sort of security for their speculation.

If bitcoins has a stable price, bitcoin will still be popular. Let us not forget the traits of bitcoin, first it is decentralized, it is more safe since you need a private key for your wallet and also bitcoin's transaction is anonymous and is not bring monitored by banks and the government, thus making it more reliable when it comes to transactions.since there are no taxes to pay and you just need a trusted wallet. I think if we go back, bitcoin's price.was.originally below one dollar and back then it was used as currency and because of its traits, bitcoin became famous but originally, it is created to be an alternative to fiat money and due to supply and demand the value of bitcoin increased.

If Bitcoin has stable price, that would be great for those who have a lot of Bitcoin. And it will be more popular in the whole world. Nowadays bitcoiner always worried about the price of Bitcoin, cause if Bitcoin dump it will affect their profit due to unstable price of Bitcoin, they need to look for a wallet that what ever happen, Bitcoin price will not affect their  profit. So I guess that would be a good news for us if that happen.

actually if bitcoin had a stable price it will not be popular because if the bitcoin price is low and it did not change no people want to try it or some user dont want to try to hold their bitcoin because of the stable price. And i think if some bitcoin user have already a token came for the signature campaign it will trade fast without any hesitation. if bitcoin have a stable price it will affect the economy of one country because of the demand of the supply we know that the demand of the supply is not stable because of the economy. All things in this world has change its value no one can be stable.

Do you think if BTC had a stable price which could only be altered by $0.01-0.10 it would still be as popular and as used?

I don't think that Bitcoins would be as popular since the whole idea behind the bitcoin trade is the fluctuating prices. If investors didn't see their bitcoin value grow, why would they even bother investing in the first place?

Agreed! The most important thing which has really helped bitcoin a lot in gaining this much of fame is none other than its volatile nature. The thing is bitcoin is never going to have stable price in the future.
In case this thing happens, then I am afraid that it will be very much difficult for bitcoin to maintain its reputation because the only thing which is helping bitcoin to earn this much of fame is increase in the market price.

[fiomcorka]

Bitcoin would still be popular, but less influential. Bitcoin would sound like an alternative to stocks market wherein one invests in a business focused on cryptocurrency. So Bitcoin holds its power on the ever-chainging value of per unit price.

Everyone has his own way of looking up at the things but I think otherwise. In my opinion, it will be really very much difficult to maintain its reputation if the market price of bitcoin gets stable. It is because of the reason that the only thing which is playing a major role in helping bitcoin to earn this much of fame is its volatile nature. Bitcoin will become less popular if its market price get stable.

This thread was created in the wrong section. This should be in the Economics sections. Anyhow, to answer you question: A stable price would most likely end up attracting even more people to Bitcoin.

I don't think so, bitcoins are just being popular that fast because of their value, but if they do not have that they might still be popular but their name will not spread that fast. Because no matter what happen in the future we will some a digital currency and bitcoins are athe pioneer to that which means they will be the first to be recognized. And having them in a stable price will just act like a normal currency but kuat in a different medium and I do not think that they Will be labeled as the most successful investment in this period of time if that happens.

[BarbieCasino]

the new technology is generally accepted by the public for some time, and so bitcoin really popular is certainly not the current price, so buy as much bitcoin as you can, of course, must be within your ability！

You are saying the new thing because a lot of the people are still not aware of the bitcoin and they are not having the knowledge about the bitcoin so I think we should spread the knowledge about the bitcoin and we should tell them how the bitcoin can increase in the value and the bitcoin will be the best currency at the same time I hope the bitcoin will increase so I think the bitcoin can survive in all the situations.

That's the truth, no one wants to invest in a risky currency without any profits after holding in a long time. But, I want to ask you a question. If you are the whale - the traders control the price of Bitcoin, do you want to make Bitcoin volatility to become quiet?

I don't think that if Bitcoin had a stable price, it would be this popular as a large number of believers of Bitcoin are day traders and the volatile nature of Bitcoin helps them to earn good amounts of profits.
Stable price may help to boost it's popularity when it's acceptance has increased and almost everyone accepts it as a means of payment.

We are in the early stages of bitcoin, people cannot hope bitcoin to be stable yet, bitcoin is still being upgraded and we are yet to see if the lightning network is going to bring the benefits we were promised, so I think it’s natural the price is unstable besides the devs and the miners are still in dispute as we can see with the recent events.

[Feuerbach]

I do not think that having a stable price bitcoin was, would be so popular. More people have an interest in btc because of the opportunity to make money on it. As a means of saving money, it does not suit. To accumulate it at a fixed price there is no sense. Use as a means of payment is possible only in a small number of places.

[Yukyzu]

the high price is the biggest factor of the popularity of bitcoin, for what it has a stable price but has no profit at all. the demand will be less if it happens. now the demand is very high although bitcoin is volatile but it does not matter because of its high value.
