The truth about bitcoin's volatility is that it stops the mainstream public to have faith in bitcoin. And that is because is a very new currency. It came into existence in 2009. Which is basically yesterday compared to fiat currencies, which have been around since centuries. Looking at some assets like gold or silver, they have been around since forever. The older any asset/currency is more stable it is because it has survived more financial travesties and in turn gained public faith. So for bitcoin to become more stable regulation and sustained public interest for a long period of time is imperative.

I think Bitcoin is a high level of coins. Bitcoin is in demand in the market. Bitcoin is more demanding when it is high. Bitcoin is worth the price. Bitcoin is called golden money. People can improve through betting. People's life gets glowing through betting. Bitcoin is earning money.

I don't think that is a true statement to tell that people's life are improving because of the betting because what do you mean by betting? Because it is more into being a gambling but for me, the people's life are improving because of their hard work and patience in doing things that they can make money like their jobs in crypto.

Bitcoin used to be defined as a store of value, HODL (buy and hold long term) investment.
With the introduction of futures markets, the rise of bitcoin cash and altcoin forks and platforms like coinbase engaging in insider trading by profiting off of their knowledge that they would introduce trading for fork coins beforehand... Bitcoin is slowly but surely becoming more an instrument of speculation than a store of long term value.
That fundamental shift is indicated by rising volatility and greater price swings.
Many trading exchanges are offering trades with no commissions. That also contributes towards higher volatility. The lack of a hard capital gains tax, which promotes HODL and cuts down on rampant speculation, also plays a role in volatility being higher than one might expect from say a stock market.
Lol, Bitcoin has never not been a purely speculative instrument. There has been no fundamental shift to this, it started as this, became even more this, and remains this. Bitcoin may go through higher and lower periods of volatility, but it has never had a period of no volatility. It was born in it, and grew to this height specifically because of it. The majority of people buying do so out of insane expectations of getting rich. It's 100% speculative, and always has been.

If someone is not highly educated then he will be upset in this world and will be lagging behind in this universe of the universe, he will get depressed. But Bitcoin is a trade-off that can make you very short-term and very easily self-reliant. However, it has been an abusive idea.

This claim can be challenged I'm not an early adopter by any means, but neither are you (just guessing, I don't really know). The Bitcoin annals assert that a couple of years after Bitcoin had been born, it was used in the dark web as a genuine means of payment. It is only since 2011 that crypto started to attract investors and speculators along with the emergence of first exchanges like Btc-e and Mt. Gox. Though I don't really know how much volatility Bitcoin experienced back in the day, before the exchanges era

The volatility is almost directly proportional to the chance of generating income. That is also why the less risky type of investment (e.g. real estate) take a lot longer to generate income compared to bitcoin.

Bitcoin's high volatility cannot be separated from bitcoin as a Cryptocurrency. It is a notable fact over the years that bitcoin from its existence is highly Volatile, and this volatility have not in any way affect the profit or gain of many who have testify of been a millionaire, as the period of it's volatility is for a brief period of time.It will be expected that all holders of bitcoin manage the up and down price value of bitcoin, by handling the situation as a period of investing, holding on and not panicking to sell their bitcoins.It is a period of investing for long term for significant profit growth after the period of bitcoin volatility.

Bitcoin's high volatility is something to be expected already. As an another form of currency, it is expected to have its value shifting from time to time. It may be a given that bitcoin's volatility is way too unpredictable, but with proper observation and enough patience, you will have abundance in bitcoin...

Bitcoin`s high volatility makes many investors and potential investors go away because it is hard to read or predict what bitcoin may become soon.

As far as i know bitcoin has a high volatility given the fact that it is in demand in the market but i did not expect hat it is so high that it can really go from 1-100 and 100-0. I want your insights about this volatility of bitcoin.
There are speculation that this recent dip is manipulated by the big whales trying to cash in on bitcoin. Dump and pumping scheme could be happening.

It was the situation since bitcoin's commencement of operation so I see it's normal and no need to deeply state about our insights. More importantly, you should/must know how to deal with bitcoin's ups and downs dramas as it might wrecked your strategy. There are different factors that plays a role in bitcoin's volatility. Well generally, as soon as you get involved in bitcoin world for long time, you will realized that volatility is really not an obstacle for you to get a decent profit out of trading or hodling bitcoin. Bitcoin's high volatility was never a problem for most of its investors, This frequent movement, and constant changing of value has been treated as a normal phenomenon by bitcoin's investor. They are so aware of it, and knows how to handle the situation to gain decent profit from there. All you have to do is remain calm, do not panic in drastic dips, and expect for a stronger bounce back, to know whether to sell, buy or hold your bitcoin. Timing and awareness is a major factor in this investment.

When bitcoin mostly used in online shop instead of exchanges then bitcoin will less volatile. This condition actually is normal conditions, as new currency bitcoin is still in the beginning of acceptance.not many people use this currency for buy goods in real life. Most of bitcoin consider it as asset, most of them are trades it everyday, then make the price move so fast.

Bitcoin's high volatility rate has been due to its high adoption rate and high conversion rates; it having a sharp price decrease and also a sharp price increase - within a short period of time.

This is good for investor that it don’t work according to the speculation of people and the volatile nature of bitcoin is really helpful for all of investor it give equal chances to buy at low and sell at high and those who didn’t invested in past now they have moment to buy and give this coin bit of progress and I am sure in the next week bitcoin prices will continue to rise and so pack up for the best time that is coming to bless us.
