Steam dropped bitcoin support citing "high volatility" as a motive.

When amazon stock jumped from $18 to $1,200 over a period of years, was this high volatility a bad thing?

If bitcoin's value increases from $6,000 to $16,000 over a period of months, and HODL'ers benefit, this high volatility is bad?

Where does the idea of high volatility being an unnecessary evil come from?

Are there good arguments or evidence which support the concept of high volatility being a negative circumstance?

In a sense, volatility simply means the price of something moves a lot, its not that bad if the vast majority of motion is in an upward direction?

 

For some reason, we can say that bitcoin's volatility is a bad thing since the profit we've gained will fall down together with it if ever it occurs. To avoid such circumstances, we should all be mindful of the market and always take a look if the market is red or green. If red, go buy as much as you can then sell it when it pumps while when its green sell everything to gain much profit.

For me it depends on the situation. Bitcoin's volatility is very uncontrollable so the only thing we can do is to go with the waves of dumps and pumps and objectify it to earn more profit. You are the one who gets to decide whethere the volatility would cause you negatively or positively but either way, just be smart and wise and you'll surely get what you are longing for.

Bitcoin volatility is not a bad thing as it is what makes it more interesting. Imagine bitcoin value going up right from when it was created .People will rush to get is as the human nature is greedy. Its unstable and unpredictable nature makes it more fun

Well aside from the fact that it's what's keeping bitcoin from being seen as a currency, being volatile actually is one of the factors that attract traders and investors to it. You can't buy low and then sell high with something that doesn't move much right?

It is necessary to distinguish the increase in the price of a digital coin in connection with the development of a project that this coin serves either by increasing its useful functions or amenities, from raising its price only on the basis of purely speculative demand, when investing in this coin is made only because of the desire to make profit, that this coin grew in value earlier and may grow in value even further. The growth of the bitcoin price to $ 20,000 in December of last year was against the backdrop of even the worsening shortcomings of bitcoin, its transactions were hanging by hundreds of thousands, commission fees were growing, and at the same time the price of bitcoin was growing. There is an expansion of it as a financial bubble. At the same time, if the internal value of the coin increases due to certain improvements, it is quite natural that this coin should grow in value.

this is why many people like it, and others are afraid of it as fire, would like to see the bank project or the platform that will guarantee the price, as with the dollar, if the loan is taken in the bills, then be kind, not looking at the rate to pay in the bills.

Not sure it's bad thing. Many people making big money on this changes of price and probably they would leave crypto if price would be stable.

[Panpan66L]

It might be quite stupid, but I believe, that without this volatility people would`nt be able to trade and earn money from bitcoin trading, so decide

I think any new asset in its price discovery stage is prone to volatility. I count myself lucky to be involved when its still so volatile. Lets me know I'm relatively early to the game. When the volatility subsides I think we will all loose our daily endorphin fixes when observing the market

The volatility of bitcoins is not the bad thing,or the main reason why should the market is down now,because in my thoughts  its the nature ways of a bussiness have an unpredictable movement,why the cryptocurrency investment have's an pump and dump happen in the blockchain market, thats disame also in local investment that we called the stock exchanges theres is also erratic movement of there local stock investment that make also an up and down there supply, so therefore volatily is part of circulation of competition of crypto coins in the world of digital system.

Not for everyone. Some people buy when it is cheap, and sell when it is high during a year; or even day trade, capitalizing on price fluctuations

Oh, no. volatility in currency is normal. many factors affect the bitcoin price. it's the right time to buy bitcoin, so not a bad thing.

Volatility effect of bitcoin is always been a part of it which plays a big role in gaining profit. Because of this, we have given a chances to earned more rather than of having a stable price. Fluctuation of bitcoin price will always occurs from time to time, and  we should take advantage on this. Because, the more prices swing the more chances we sell it for a high value.

I agree with you. Volatility behavior of bitcoin give us opportunity to earn more profit because we can buy it in a cheap price when it is going down, and sell it when it is going up. It is not really a bad things wherein in this situation we can make our play and strategy on how to get more profit from it. And most important thing is that you should really know how to manage it well.

It really depends from what angle are you looking at. If you use Bitcoin as a payment method, then I think volatility is bad since the value of the payment given to you may decrease in a matter of minutes or hours.
But if you look at Bitcoin's volatility when you are investing, it is a big factor to how you can gain a better profit so I don't see anything bad about it at all. Bottom line is that volatility can be good or bad depends on how you will look at it, and how are you going to allow it to affect you.

The Volatility is bad to make bitcoin as acceptable benchmark to valuating other assets as to much variations could lead to unstable economy.

[BertoloyBTC]

I considered it a natural happenning and it is not  bad, the volatility of bitcoin happen becausr of some factors in the economy , in business like bitcoin we considered this as part of growing economy of cryptocurrency , bitcoin is an exchanges so the ups and downs of market value will always be there , when there is an exchange.

[LKing]

I think is a bad thing for new adopters. Most of my non-tech/non-financial friends are very afraid of getting in because of this.

[Kamote_1102]

For me,  Bitcoin Volatily is not a bad thing. It teach us how to be patient while waiting for the price to go up.so there for I conclude that Volatily of Bitcoin is not a bad thing.

[suhoy]

I don't see anything bad in it's volatility - it's one of it's nature attributes and so it will be in future.

[Irvinn]

The high volatility of bitcoin lies in the fact that it has a high amplitude of price fluctuations. It can manifest itself even for no apparent reason. With high price growth, its financial bubble quality is manifested. Because of this, many states are afraid of bitcoin and warn their citizens about the greater risks of investing in it. This is one of the significant reasons, taking into account that states are not willing to legalize the currency.
