you cannot control bitcoin market and you cannot control everyone else mind. will they pump or will they dump? that is why you cannot control bitcoin volatility. it is very different in fiat where government will just release federal reserves if fiat is getting too weak.
Since were in technology era now, it is really on cryptocurrencies and its volatility will be hard to control.it is decentralized and will only depend on its market besides pump and dumo is always part of it.

If you build a group and invest a decent amount of BTC it could be controlled, on the other hand it is really tough to think that way, the only thing that I know is if other company started accepting bitcoin as payment the value of BTC will levitate.

Yeah , Futhermore they use media to make a fake news or a speculations for bitcoins price which affects a lot to the market .They can't control the volatility ,they only take advantage on social media to promote news .The price based on the investors who spend in bitcoins .

I have read some posts and some concerns that it is the volatility of Bitcoin that is preventing many people and many businesses to fully adopt Bitcoin. This can be the main factor why big online shopping stores are not yet adding Bitcoin into their payment facilities (though there is now a circulated petition for this but I doubt if it can make a dent).

Some are really saying that if volatility can be managed then we can see Bitcoin going mainstream. I am wondering then: Is volatility something that we should find a way to control and how do you think it can be done?

Bitcoin being decentralized and its price being dependent on its demand and supply, controlling the volatility is a difficult one. The community is just small but you can clearly see how wild the price can be. What if it gets globally accepted; what will happen; how wild the price will be? The only way to deal with the volatility is to control its variables, either the price or the demand.

Ending the hard fork debate would contribute heavily towards reducing volatility. A high proportion of price shifts and volatility are correlated with hard fork announcements. Other common themes affecting volatility are announcements regarding countries legalizing/banning crypto, SEC announcements involving crypto ETF's, announcements relating to seizing of crypto without checks & balances such as senate bill 1241, national debt and associated fiat volatility et al

That's unlikely to happen in the near future

And if before it were mostly idle talks with developers and miners coming up now and then with curses against each other (let's call that a cold war era), what we see now could be described as the eve of a hot war. So the debates are likely going to escalate further as we near November (when a true hard fork should happen), and what's more troubling, these debates could actually provoke, lead to, or turn into certain actions with unintended consequences. It seems like we are going to see plenty of struggle ahead, a lot more in comparison to what we have already seen by now and with more action at that

Everything will come to an end when that will be more number of bitcoin users in action. Bitcoin adopters and in more particularly the people who are using bitcoins for daily life are very less in number that is the reason FUDs are still working. When we will be having bitcoin as mainstream momentary system, I believe we never need to worry about volatility of bitcoin prices anymore.

when bitcoin user is getting bigger, then i think bitcoin will still volatile because bitcoin price is changing evertime because of supply and demand in market. bitcoin user following the price in the market and if they are buying product for their daily life, i think it is not make bitcoin price is stable.

You can understand some people on market maybe is whales or big boy want the price this coin increasing or decreasing, but in first time they need use media to make some fake news and create panic on market. The subjects helps them are speculator, newbie, trader with mentality always fearing ... are people helps this happens fast and easy more.

High volatility is the issue,  volatility of bitcoins makes it unique from other currencies and it is attractive feature as business point of view. Volatility can be controlled if we have a stable market of bitcoin (which is in fact not possible due to its characteristics in my point of view)
We can't control volatility since it is decentralized and demand is hard to predict. Some countries planning on implementing it can make its value really high. Stable market can only happen in short period of time and can change as fast that we don't even noticed.
Yeah of course it can not be manipulated or set by someone. Unless bitcoin is not decentralized and owned by someone of course owners will do bitcoin price manipulation for their benefit and profit. But the bitcoin is decentralized, so bitcoin will not be able to manipulate its fluctuations

Bitcoin's decentralized feature makes it hard to control its volatility. In order to control the price movement of one currency, there has to be a central governing body tht would control the supply and demand of bitcoins. If this happens, if bitcoin would be centralized, it would make bitcoin less attractive and boring. Nowadays, bitcoins are seen more as an investment rather than a medium of exchange. And in investment, the price's volatility adds flavor to trading. It is what makes it exciting. So, in my opinion, bitcoin holders, specially investors, would prefer bitcoin's price volatility as it is. It is part of its beauty.

There's two sides to the coin. The volatility comes from the fact that there are no controls being applied to it and that price is beset by constantly in use exchange system. Can you start applying controls to that as such as 15 minute updates, then you're either being unfair to the investors that are making money off of these changes or you're hurting me investors by locking and changes for period of time.

Now it is granted, that it will make it difficult for a consumer, when a product and he just picked up off of the Shelf has a fluctuating currency Price attached to it that literally going to be possibly 50 to $100 different before he gets to check out.  Sad

I think it can't be controlled because bitcoin is based on decentralised system and there are no one to controlled it, the one that makes it volatility is the supply and demand and we can't controlled people about those things, so bitcoin will never be too stable

Indeed perfectly depicted. Bitcoin is not really meant to be controlled by anyone and that should actually good thing about it. The reason is it can grow and rise in the price as the investors bring more volumes into trades. The limited supply is also meant for bitcoin rush that is people will put lots of money to mine it and earn back the profits in the virtual world. So controlling bitcoins volatile nature is like restricting it from growing into bigger value.

Controlling bitcoins volatility is out of the question. The best we can hope for is for lots of people to own a share, this way a few individuals with truck loads of coins wont be able to manipulate the market. Not everyone is adverse to the volatile nature of bitcoins., for quick thinking traders, high volatility is very desirable.

Not only does it provide plenty of opportunities for large, fast profits but also lots of buying or selling opportunities within larger trends. That said, traders conditioned to more staid markets will need to seriously adjust their game plan in order to survive in the wild bitcoin markets.

Maybe. Bitcoin depends on the market's demand. So its volatility might be controlled if the demand will continuously increase in order for the Bitcoin's value to remain high. The more people who will invest in Bitcoin, the more benefits on this community. So if that's the reason, pertaining to volatility, why people and companies doubt in the adaptation of btc, they should know that they can be a part of the solution to this problem. If they will be brave enough and will trust btc as currency, its price will be detained as high.

Volatility cannot be controlled when the case is for bitcoin. If it were not for volatility of Bitcoin, people would not know more about it,and if they come across it,they will just ignore it thinking that its just someone trying to scam them. Businesses can adopt Bitcoin, but they must be smart and take some risk ,but at the same time adaptating fully on Bitcoin may not be wise decision as of now.

Guys you forgot one thing. Controlling the volatility of a cryptocurrency is not just about pump and dump, investing a large amount of money, or implementing the regulation. A single voice can manipulate the volatility and so the opposite as well controlling.  As well a propagande or a campaign call it as you wish (no i am not talking about signature/twitter campaign Cheesy )

Volatility can't be controled but it will get more and more reduced as market cap and daily volume increases over time. Bitcoins volatility is proportional to its value, at higher valuations it takes more fiat to move the price in either direction.

Bitcoin volatility maybe hard to controlled, but fortunately it is a decentralized digital currency which has limited supply. Bitcoin volatility maybe could be more stable if everyone or many people in this world have bitcoin in their wallet, bitcoin spread widely and used in daily transaction as medium of exchange, so if some people sell bitcoin, many more will buy bitcoin, then bitcoin price will reduce bitcoin volatility such as fiat currency.
