Be honest

[Junii]

Will you still be holding BTC if the price is fixed like a Stablecoin? Will you buy more to keep for the next generation if price neither increases or decrease, be honest, let me hear your thoughts.

Hmm well i will still holding it because if we remove the profits and preciousness of bitcoin then another benefit of bitcoin is still existed like decentralization i mean not a single entity has control over it so just like i am saving and holding the fiat which is centralized i will store another decentralized currency as well which is also stable and is digital as well because i am living in another country but if i have to send some money to my friends who are in another corner of the world bitcoin will help me in that situation as well and i will not rely on the traditional banking systems.

BTC will never be a stablecoin; it's impossible. One of the characteristics that sets it apart from any other market is that BTC will always be volatile. It moves a lot, with buying and selling everywhere. It's impossible; it would cease to be BTC and what it was created for.

BTC is a currency that was created for financial freedom, to escape the current system, which has many flaws.

It simply doesn't make sense for BTC to ever be stable. It might one day settle at $1 million, but that value is already significant, and even then, it will fluctuate when it reaches that price.

The main feature of Bitcoin is its price volatility. If Bitcoin does not have this feature in the future, its demand will decrease. It is almost certain that Bitcoin will never be like a Stablecoin. This is because Stablecoin is not limited to any fixed amount but the supply of Bitcoin is limited to 21 million. So why will Bitcoin's price be like a stablecoin?

If Bitcoin is in such a stable position in the future and it is long term, then I may consider partially withdrawing my Bitcoin holdings but I will not completely abandon Bitcoin holdings because even if Bitcoin's price is stable for a long time its price will rise in the future.

I agree that volatililty is one of the things that comes with bitcoin and nothing can change that about Bitcoin. But I don't think that the OP's question is whether or not BTC will eventually become a stablecoin.  I believe that the question is more like trying to know the mind of investors behind their reasons for holding Bitcoin, is it just for the profit or are there other reasons entirely.

Just assuming that the price of Bitcoin would be fixed forever, would people still appreciate the value of holding on to it for years or even to generations?  I don't know about you but for me, I feel that's an interesting question for discussion because it take our mind away from the idea of price appreciation and focuses on the significance of Bitcoin as a long term investment.

Bitcoin was created to be digital money but I think Satoshi was able to think about this before we even thought of it why Bitcoin was volatile instead of being stable. All the money we have been spending before Bitcoin was created was never volatile but Satoshi has already seen the obstruction it's going to cause for the growth of Bitcoin if it was meant to be stable like the stablecoins.
The only reason why we have been seeing investors buying and accumulating Bitcoin is because of it volatile aspect giving them the leverage to make profit easily if they can hold.

Then people would have lost interest in investing in bitcoin since there will be no difference between fiat and a stablecoin, they will be seeing it as fiat that does not worth saving.

The reason why alot of persons are storing Bitcoin is because of it's decentralized nature that has hedge control over inflation and store of value, so as Bitcoin digital currency without these values then nobody will be wanting to accumulate and hold Bitcoin since there will be no future reward for Bitcoin investors

[Solokan]

If, for example, the price of BTC stabilizes like stablecoins, I will continue to hold BTC and continue buying BTC. If the price is stable, there's no harm in buying BTC. If the price is stable, the potential for a price drop will be difficult, indicating that many people are holding BTC.

However, I don't think BTC will be stable in the future because people certainly want to profit from buying BTC. However, I think BTC fluctuations may not be as high as they used to be. However, those who invest in BTC and hold it long-term will still profit, even if the price is high in the future, as BTC will certainly have the potential to continue to rise.

What's your reason for investing in Bitcoin? I'd bet you're like everyone else, profit comes first. So tbh , I'm a bit skeptical of people who say they'd keep buying BTC and holding it longterm even if its price became stable.

Then again ,  OP was just tossing out a hypothetical scenario.  Bitcoin's volatility may come down over time, sure, but it'll never be as stable as a stablecoin .  And as long as there's still money to be made , people will keep investing in it.

My reason for buying BTC is to seek profit, and indeed, everyone certainly does. If the price of BTC is stable, there will likely be fewer people buying BTC, especially those seeking profit.

However, if I could, I would still buy BTC if I had discretionary income, even if the price stabilizes in the future. If the price is stable, we could use BTC for international payments. But what's clear is that it will be something, because we don't really know what will happen to BTC in the future. However, it seems like BTC has the potential to have a bright future, regardless of whether the price stabilizes or not, because BTC has many advantages, one of which is its decentralization and limited supply.

The truth is that Bitcoin’s price is volatile and will remain volatile forever, and in fact, it will become more volatile in the future. This is because most of the total supply of Bitcoin has been mined. If long-term investors continue to hold Bitcoin, there will be a shortage of sellers in the market and will gradually increase the price. Bitcoin will never have this habitual of a Stablecoin in the future.

Bitcoin price may fall in the future and this is a natural dynamic of the price cycle, but it will not last long. I will continue to accumulate Bitcoin in the same way as I am accumulating Bitcoin now, through discretionary income, because in the future the price of Bitcoin will skyrocket.

Here are few points why I am with Bitcoin all the way.

1. I can make big profits holding Bitcoin for long term compare to keeping money in the banks for years.
2. I have total control over my money.
3. No one will know my true worth, there is no traces of me having 10 or 0 Bitcoin.
4. Decentralisation at its peak.

If Bitcoin goes Stable coin the only point it will affects is number 1, there will be no room for profits making any longer but that's not the only reason why I am investing in Bitcoin, it gives me total control over my money, that's freedom from bank controls, freedom from preying eyes who want to know my worth, and it's also fully decentralised? These are valid reasons why I will still choose Bitcoin over banks.

Straight up , if Bitcoin turned stable , nobody would be buying it to Hodl anymore. We'd only think of it when we need it, like for international payments or the private payments you mentioned. Or some folks would use it as a savings account rather than keep their money in a bank.

Whichever  way it ends up being used, BTC definitely won't be our top priority like it is now, no matter how superior it is. Cause once the main reason most people buy, making a profit is gone, they won't have much reason to put holding Bitcoin first like they do today.

The main reason why many people are holding Bitcoin and continue to buy and hold it for the long term is its volatility. If Bitcoin price were fixed, a lot of people would not be holding it. Only a few people would likely hold it for the purpose of decentralization. But how many people truly understand and value their privacy? They are just a few.So, if Bitcoin’s price were fixed, I don’t think I would be willing to hold it for the long term. Even if I decided to own some Bitcoin for privacy reasons, I would rather invest in another asset whose price may increase over time and help me fight inflation than hold Bitcoin if its price were stable.

There is a point in your words, because many people buy Bitcoin and hold it for a long time in the hope of good profits in the future. However, I think that it is not only the price volatility, but also the possibility of price increases in the long term that attracts people more.

For example, someone bought Bitcoin for $1,000 today and kept it for five years, his main intention was not to profit from daily price fluctuations, but rather to hope that its value will increase in the future. However, no one can guarantee that that hope will be fulfilled. Another thing you said is also right that if the price remains the same for a long time, the purchasing power of that money may decrease due to inflation. However, not everyone holds Bitcoin just in the hope of profit. Many also value the convenience of maintaining their own control over their money and making transactions without the permission of others.

So I think that the purpose of holding Bitcoin is not the same for everyone, if you invest in Bitcoin, everyone should have a plan to hold it for at least 4–10 years or more, but it is better to aim for 10 years or more. So, while how long someone can hold Bitcoin depends on their financial ability, whether they are investing from discretionary income, regular income, emergency funds, and personal circumstances, it is important to have the mindset of storing Bitcoin for the long term.

I think most of us would give pretty similar answers if asked. We'd list the reasons we choose Bitcoin, just like you did.
However, haven't you noticed that profit is always the first thing that most people, including yourself, think about and mention? That tells you profit is still biggest reason people want to own BTC. Everything else come second.
If Bitcoin's price really got stable and stopped making you any money . Would the other perks still be enough for you to keep holding it  the way you do now?  Be honest , mate.

Bitcoin is decentralized and no single entity controls it. This is why I'm accumulating regularly and building a  Bitcoin holding. A country's government can control the country's financial system by printing more money, but Bitcoin has a limited supply. No single entity can control Bitcoin, nor can it increase its supply.
Due to these unique characteristics Bitcoin has a store of value and the potential for future price increases. The demand for Bitcoin will increase but the supply will remain the same so the price will increase. I am accumulating Bitcoin for the long term to get high returns.
