With a market cap that reaches over $ 100 billion, I think it would be hard for anyone to make a turbulent bitcoin price. all prices due to the pure demand and stock of the users.
Obviously, and the fact that it is even getting huge every day. Highest that can ever happen is seeing the market being manipulated one way or the other by whales, but as the market cap keeps increasing, this makes it more difficult for huge manipulation to be done. However, bitcoin remains decentralized and it is just impossible for anyone to come up one day and start controlling the volatility.
I feel the same thing...of course someone controls it, but we will never know the details...since no one will be able to influence it

I don't think so because in the first place bitcoin is freedom, bitcoin is decentralized so which means bitcoin volatility as well, will not be controlled.

I have read some posts and some concerns that it is the volatility of Bitcoin that is preventing many people and many businesses to fully adopt Bitcoin. This can be the main factor why big online shopping stores are not yet adding Bitcoin into their payment facilities (though there is now a circulated petition for this but I doubt if it can make a dent).

Some are really saying that if volatility can be managed then we can see Bitcoin going mainstream. I am wondering then: Is volatility something that we should find a way to control and how do you think it can be done?

no, nobody can control the circulation of bitcoin because bitcoin is a digital currency deliberately made so that no one can master this because bitcoin is always growing and getting harder to get.

I don't think it can be controlled, it is already in nature of bitcoin to be volatile, so controlling it wouldn't be possible. There will always be people who will give value to it no matter what, and once they bought a lot it will once again increase it's value for more demands. Remember that the increase of demand will result to increase of value as well.

With a market cap reaching more than $ 250 billion, I think it's very difficult to control bitchin volatile, as we know that bitcoin is decentralized so all prices depend on needs and stock.
That's absolutely correct! Bitcoin voaltility can't be controlled as the bitcoin market is a free market and value in free market is based on the demand and supply, so right now bitcoin is having high demand and which is continuously so the price is also gonna increase definitely in the upcoming future .
That says it all. Demand and supply is what drives the market and its volatility and as long as no one can be controlled regarding this, then there is no way to control bitcoin's volatility.

Even if I have about 1 million bitcoin now and I want to dump it all, it would only affect the market to some extent even if I am dropping at a lower price, but looking at the market cap and the rate at which new investors are looking for a great value, I will even regret making such a decision which is why whales can hardly do much with the value these days.

you know and we know that volatility is the key why bitcoin became popular and why we can earn profit to it and why it is the best for trading. so just imagine if volatility is controlled or regulated then it can greatly affect the bitcoin market and also the people who are always depending on it. yet stores can still use bitcoin even if its volatile because they can always adjust their pricing according to the current value of bitcoin.
Even fiat volatility against each other cannot be controlled and that is what still makes forex market trad-abletoday despite it being controlled by the government.

Bitcoin being decentralized even makes the volatility as crazy as it seems but I believe a time would come when a little balance would be maintained based on the level of adoption, but controlling it is something that cannot be possible, except we give up the decentralization characteristics.

Although theoretically it could be managed, it couldn't be controlled in real life. Bitcoin is widely used and we cannot control people who use them. It is not only affected by one factor but several and no one is powerful enough to manipulate.
I don’t really think so, Bitcoin can be moved by the Investment people makes, but at which rate it moves is being determined by the developers. So can the volatility of bitcoin be controlled? My answer will be definitely a yes! But only by the devs. You can just take a look at how Ethereum is being controlled. Bitcoin is going out of hand, and seriously, the price rate needs to be corrected.
If you are having thousand or million bitcoins and you can try to dump all of your bitcoin at the same time in the market and you already made the market becomes panic. Bitcoin is not having any developers. All of the thing based on the community's consensus.
Nope, Bitcoin has developers but unlike the centralized system, the developers of Bitcoin has created by the community and all changes in Bitcoin need to get accept from the community first.
Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin Unlimited ... are the product from developers of Bitcoin Wink.

I think bitcoin volatility cannot be controlled because it is one of the characteristics that a cryptocurrency possess since it was generated and operated online and tend to be virtually used as a currency. It is a normal that cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin undergoes volatility to make it free on changing its price value which results to benefits and opportunities to be gained upon experiencing this volatility that bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies possesses.

Volatility of bitcoin and cryptocurrency cannot be controlled. In my view very few altcoins volatility were controlled just because of the team that's behind it. Some provide fake price moves to profit out of it, if the system functions in a decentralized state the volatility can't be kept under control. At times manipulation happens with the big Volume holders.


Yes i agree with what you say, since bitcoin is always on a sudden change of price which is prone to losing its value. When volatility of bitcoin could be controlled then that is bad because there would be someon or and organization manipulate the price of bitcoin for their own interest. Bitcoin should remain volatile to prevent bitcoin being corrupted by some organization.

Such high volatility, as we observe now, discourages serious investors. I hope that trading on the Chicago Stock Exchange will help to reduce such significant price fluctuations.

no, bitcoin can not be controlled by anyone, even in china have a lot of bitcoin minerals and they are still not able to control bitcoin, the government also will not be able to control bitcoin transactions, bitcoin can not be controlled by anyone.
what about someone who has half of the total amount of bitcoin? of course they can change the bitcoin price very easily? by selling a few percent of their bitcoin certainly fluctuations will move very quickly? but the question is, is it there people who have million of bitcoin ?
Yes there is a person who have a lot of bitcoin and it is more than or exactly one million amount of bitcoins in holdings and that is Satoshi Nakamoto which is the owner of bitcoin and the reason why we have an opportunity like this and why we have a work to get a source of income to sustain our needs in ourselves and also for our family.
Where are that was coming from? about the satoshi nakamoto hold worth more than a million. In another old thread someone already give a lot of explanation about how many the bitcoin that hold by satoshi. And that was not more than 1k bitcoin. You can try to see the first address that generate in the bitcoin blockchain.

I think now it cannot be controlled. However, with this race of this crypto it becomes evident that some of control must exist. Otherwise, a chaotic situation will happen.
