Bitcoin period of volatility is over?

[Reid]

Are you out of your mind?
Do you really think this is a stable price?
It had been moving for hundreds of dollars and that is stable for you?

Do you know how much it is worth for other countries?
Dont be selfish just thinking about yourself and think about others too.
This fluctuations are a large number for them.

I'm looking at Bitcoin charts for the past few days and it looks like a straight flat line. I'm not sure whether to feel happy or sad about this but could this possibly be related to the fact that we now have bitcoin futures? Does this mean bitcoin volatility will be less?

It's not over and it won't ever last. Bitcoin's feature is being volatile in the market, either in downwards or in upwards. This speciality won't end in bitcoin. It will maintain the same.

It's not over, it's just a quiet period, it's now up over $1k today so that shows that to be the case. Bitcoin was just taking a break while altcoins had their run but it had been threating another bull run soon and I think we just started it. 25k coming up.

I think current volatility will not last forever and fluctuations in bitcoin price will be less. It will happen when all the people know it and any business accept it.

[Chris314]

So far it's still quite volatile, with more than 1k$ increase in a few hours, I don't call it a stabilisation.

[Zicadis]

Bitcoin volatility will never be over.Only it could get reduced to some extent in future.

I think so too because bitcoin has lots of traders making money from this the period of volatility just might be far from being over unless people start to hodl longer this should normalize.

There would be always a variation in the demand for bitcoins which would make its price volatile.The entry of institutional firms may lessen the volatile.Bitcoin futures price will not directly affect bitcoin price.

i dont think variations from demand lead to this but having institutional firms/investors should fix this problem.

[boboking]

It would not be over and volatility will continue. This is normal specially that more people are now attracted investing in bitcoin since it will be listed tomorrow.

For now yes, recently there are big buying to gained thr free fork coin, and after that there was a huge selling and the price fall down, but flat line is only temporary, traders and investors will start to invest again and we will see another volatility, volatility is the part of bitcoin so it will never over

Bitcoin's price has only been stable at around the $16,000-$17,000 price mark for only like 4 days. Bitcoin's price has been stable for longer than that in the past. The volatility is definitely not over, and is FAR from over. Also, bitcoin futures will definitely make bitcoin a lot more volatile in my opinion. There's going to be bigger whales that could affect bitcoin's price.

You are definitely right, this is not the end, we are only getting started. If you see the past charts of Bitcoin's progresses it has steady price for how many years and didn't even bother moving an inch. Now we see how it rose up and and fall's down and rose again. Volatility is something that Bitcoin will never get rid off unless it would have a permanent value in a world wide agreement.

Bitcoin is now at 19k, since you are relatively new to the community one thing you need to understand is that we cannot claim that bitcoin has become stable after a few days also if you look at the amount of people currently in bitcoin and at the potential market that bitcoin has then it is very easy to see that bitcoin is not going to become stable in decades.

[kaygie]

Period of volatility for bitcoins will never vanished as bitcoin price is merely depending of trading volume there is in market bitcoin price is still risky and as it goes up the risk increase because even more people want to buy bitcoins for hodling time would come and there would be very little buyers already due to huge value.

Its still early for this fluctuations to ends up, as traders and investors loves what they are seeing and taking advantage of this market movements,
many things can happen so we can't really assess whether its already done or just starting all over again.

[ChrisSand]

It is still early to tell if the volatility of bitcoin has settled. Every day new investors come and try to invest their money in bitcoins. As long as trading is there, the volatility of it will not stop.

[Gabmot]

I don't think so. One can only suggest btc is passed volatility stage come the end of 2017. As at this evening, the price remains $19,356 which can actually go up or down depending on where volatility storm is bending it to.

Yes it is too early for saying that, volatility always presents in bitcoin market. I cant really say it is over everytime, daily price is volatile it may down little and up fast. Bitcoin will continue of spiking I guess.

Volatility has reduced? I do not think so. Come on, man volatility is one of the key features of bitcoin, it usually stays high. Bitcoin future's is not directly linked to bitcoin, the futures are a financial instrument which means that the investors won't be holding bitcoin, rather they'd be holding a financial instrument which mentions so and so details. The volatility anyhow will be much higher this two weeks because one the reason is the CME listing and the other is that Christmas is near, people want to cash out and go for a vacation.

[william8829]

This recent upward trend reminds me of the May-June-July market.  Increased media attention. 'Old' well established financial companies are implementing Bitcoin into their business.  A rush of new ICO's promising you wealth simultaneously begging for your money.  New alternative currencies coming out of nowhere to be market cap juggernauts.

[tiggytomb]

I don't think this is an indication that the price will now be stable, bitcoin has done this many times before and will cotinue to hover before moving heavily again.

The futures may play a part in the bitcoin price but I don't think it will slow it down to becoming stable.

The volatility is not yet over on till bitcoin has reach its real value and that is an indication that volatility is not yet over on till bitcoin reaches its real value and the adoption is worldwide.

[splat44]

We should look the bright side of bitcoin. it will go higher as soon as possible.it will pump in upcoming weeks. let's be good to alts right now. the volatility is not yet over expect more surprises.
