If you are an active trader in the world of digital currency and indeed take advantage of extreme price movements Bitcoin to seek profit, Bitcoin prices are fluctuating, of course, brings its own happiness. But it's different if you use Bitcoin as cash or fiat money. If you redeem your one million Bitcoin and intend to spend it on an online site, you certainly do not want your Bitcoin value to decrease as Bitcoin prices suddenly drop. Bitcoin you have now cannot pay for the Hard Disk 1 Terra you want and eventually, you have to buy extra Bitcoin to cover up the shortcomings.

Fluctuating Bitcoin prices have become a daily complaint of Bitcoiners around the world. Actually what factors affect the rise and fall of Bitcoin prices?
I wouldn't really say that it is a complaint. At least for me.

Personally i enjoy trading with the fluctuation. Without the fluctuation you can literally just use something like USDT(tethered to 1 USD). And that would mean that you're essentially limiting yourself with central bank policies again.

Bitcoin is all about decentralization and with decentralization will come fluctuations in price. Just how it goes.

There is no central authority to manage its stability. Its value is largely dictated by supply and demand, which both fluctuate because the market moves fluidly. There are also some entities that are holding large amounts that can make waves in the market by themselves.

Unfortunately the big capitals seem to have taken over the altcoin market, because the big movements that have been registered in the price of bitcoin this year (approximately five large swings of 30 or 40% of the price in a matter of hours), have shown that its high volatility it is due to manipulation in the price, what is making bitcoin a pump and dump business.

Bitcoin is now spread all over the world. It has become difficult for a single person or even for a group of people to manipulate the price of bitcoin. Still the increasing number of bitcoin is making bitcoin more reliable and that is the reason that still investors are taking more interest in bitcoin I am sure that the current increase in the price of bitcoin is due to the interest of the people. People still continue investing money in bitcoin which is increase the value of bitcoin and we are hopeful that this increasing trend of bitcoin will continue for a long long time, because still bitcoin has too much potential to increase.

Bitcoin is most indemand coin among other crypto currencies, bitcoin has the biggest trading volume in a day. The factors that affect the rise and fall of bitcoin price is made by people. When a large amount of people going to sell their bitcoin the price will decrease, when people invest and buy bitcoin the price will rise.
In addition, bitcoin is the most popular coin in crypto currency industry and many investors are invest to this coin because they believe that in the future this coin will become the start of digital era.

fluctuating of bitcoin price is due several factors, such as the number of buyers
causing the price to rise and when many people want to sell it then the price is down,
it happens every day, because every day there are people who sell and buy with varied prices,
but when the price drops many investors who buy it can be ascertained
after that the price will rise

Yes. but i think for me the most relevant reason of bitcoin price or value fluctuation is due to the demand and supply of bitcoin since they said that bitcoin is still in development stage now a days, and if more and more people adopt bitcoin then transparently the demand of it will goes high therefore as the law of demand and supply that the greater the demand the higher its value. So generally bitcoin value fluctuation is the results of users adaptation.

Because bitcoin depend on simple Demand and supply law  (with small market ) any change of demand will make price increase so that price of bitcoin is unstable
so for short the more bicoin holders the more it chance to increase and when a lot of bitcoin holders release or sell their coin there is a scenario that bitcoin value will decrease. Thats why bitcoin is always fluctuated because there are some eagerly bitcoin holders sell there coin time on time.

yes i am agree with you and there are many people which invest their money into bitcoin so they are expecting to make big profit from bitcoin too. when many people decide to buy bitcoin the price will increase and decrease and this make the price fluctuating and for people which is good in analyze, they can easily to make profit. the most reason why bitcoin price is fluctuating is because supply and demand in the market but people still confident to buy and sell bitcoin although the price is fluctuating.

Bitcoin prices are influenced by the amount of market demand in bitcoin more and more people buy and use bitcoin then bitcoin prices will rise but if little market demand for bitcoin then bitcoin prices will go down. So the rise and fall in bitcoin prices is determined by how many people want bitcoin.

There are a lot of people that are not pro traders and basically what they do is sell and buy the news.

To add up about that mate, those people who weren't pro traders always think of quick money when they seen the price at reasonable price to sell because they afraid their investment to lose another value again. Fluctuations always generate bad impressions to those investors who had an attitude of having panic. They cannot calm down unless they recover back their money and turn their tradings back to fiat cash in hand, the patience for them is their worst enemy to fight and most of investors like this tend to regret in the future after they saw price tripled from its current value.

where fluctuations, it's just growth over a long distance with minor deviations. when around so much noise this inevitably leads to an increase and a drop in a short time

the fluctuation of bitcoin is now a day every one use bitcoin and invest their money in bitcoins.
For me fluctuating price of bitcoin is naturally connected to this digital currency and also bitcoin has no physical appearance, unlike fiat that you can manage how to control it. You should know when can they excess and when can they loss. Aside from that maybe because of the demand of users and investors as well, buying and selling is difficult because the value has no specific time and day when they can fluctuate.

Price of bitcoin fluctuating is a common factor. This will never get termed to be a big issue with the people who have been getting profited through the fluctuations. This is all about the growth interval, now the growth interval has taken place and it once again starts moving forward in a short.

Technically I think the major cause why bitcoin is continue to moves up and down was the demand in the market.
Many investors and bitcoin earner are suppose to hoard bitcoin their wallet.
And it cause a lack of btc so, the tendency is to rise the value of it so that many bitcoin holder will sell their coin.
Aside from that the many investors invest in btc the better it improve interms of price.

You also have a point in that, but bitcoin price fluctuates so much because it is still in development phase and nascent stage. Similarly with every new Bitcoin development or negative news, the Bitcoin’s price gets effected. I have seen it drop down by 30% in a week and vice versa, majorly due to news and rumours.

yeah, same here. price fluctuations isnt really a problem to me and infact we should be thankfull to it because with these so called fluctuations , we can be able to to buy bitcoin in a cheap price when it dips or make a good profit when price pumps. therefor fluctuation  isnt really a bad thing that we should worry of.  fluctuations also happens on fiats or anything that has a value.

Question is who are the people behind it that makes it fluctuate this much.
I can tell they are rich people if they can somehow shake the bitcoin price.
It could have been 5 bitcoin per human  being to make it grow this much and never use it or hold it for an amount of time.
But I think they did hold it. It is steady now at $15000 which makes me a bit calm after all the increase.
