Ending the hard fork debate would contribute heavily towards reducing volatility. A high proportion of price shifts and volatility are correlated with hard fork announcements. Other common themes affecting volatility are announcements regarding countries legalizing/banning crypto, SEC announcements involving crypto ETF's, announcements relating to seizing of crypto without checks & balances such as senate bill 1241, national debt and associated fiat volatility et al.
As with stocks & investments news events are the biggest contributor to volatility.
Topic: Can Bitcoin Volatility Be Controlled? - page 36. (Read 12145 times)
I think the bitcoin's bitality is difficult to control. It's because supply and demand of bitcoin are different, which causes rise and fall of bitcoin prices. That's why online stores do not accept bitcoin as a means of payment .. they are afraid of bitcoin votality that often changes. It may be that the store can benefit. And may also incur losses. It's uncertain.
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?
The volatility cant be really controlled, and its mainly caused by investors fright, one time they hear good news concerning the market which drives up the value another time issues like the incoming fork may drive investors to cash out thus driving down the value. To be fully adopted by coporations they will need to always change the prices of their products and immediately cash out after a purchase for fears that the market may tumble.Some are really saying that if volatility can be managed then we can see Bitcoin going mainstream.

The volatility can't be controlled but it can be much lower. I don't remember where, yet I've read a study showin bitcoin's volatility will decline sharply for the next years. This would be good for bitcoin user merchants.
Volatility is what makes Bitcoin so interesting. It shouldn't be controlled. There are enough payment providers that allow you to accept Bitcoin without taking the risk of volatility.
Bitcoin is still a new technology that is not fully understood by the general public. It is just starting to be used as an investment for some people. It is still relatively hard to acquire and there aren't many exchanges where you can trade it. Because of these reasons, Bitcoin will be volatile for a while. It will probably be more stable after an ETF is approved so that it can be part of stock trader's portfolios.

I don't think volatility of Bitcoin price or crypto currency in general can be control because in my own view it is the forces of demand and supply that determines the market value of Bitcoin, Although I stand to be corrected. Even news and events as we have already seeing in few days back about 1st August meeting news all over which made so many people sold their bitcoin as a result of panic at a lost.
It is better not to check because then the stock market will suffer, but those who sell products over the price of bitcoin will be very happy. The biggest difficulty in selling products is the high volatility.
Bitcoin volatility can be controlled. If there are many people who transact with bitcoin. And it can be done but through a very long process. Need technical and realization to everyone. Especially to investors. Because if the investors have a lot of glance at bitcoin to invest I think its volality will be able to walk. We just wait later as time goes by. For now I do not think so. Because it needs recognition process. Cooperation of all related installations. I hope it will be realized. Because there are so many advantages gained by using bitcoin
Could you expand more on this?
I don't know about others, but I couldn't get a slightest clue how you are going to control Bitcoin volatility. Which long process you refer to specifically? What you just posted looks more like gibberish, basically just a bunch of words and random phrases only superficially coherent. You may want to explain your thought or idea (provided there is any). Otherwise, it kinda looks like a typical spam post where only the first sentence makes some sense, a task for mods I guess (I don't mind if my post gets deleted together with this one)

I do not think volatility can be controlled when you have people constantly using it.
I see volatility to be a sign of confidence in the money market and how demand is affecting bitcoin in real time and the word "Control" does not relate well with our cryptocurrency. let us face it all hodlers want volatility soaring for them to get rich fast.
the actual problem aren't on how a lot of people constantly using bitcoin.I see volatility to be a sign of confidence in the money market and how demand is affecting bitcoin in real time and the word "Control" does not relate well with our cryptocurrency. let us face it all hodlers want volatility soaring for them to get rich fast.
but when the bitcoin usage itself are unable to regulated by a single person/organization , but by each person of us , then if you want to control over bitcoin volatility you have to know and control each person who involve in bitcoin which it is impossible.
When you say "Controlle" , i only think in the centralization of the bitcoin :p
But iwhen we talk about the volatility of the bitcoin (or any other cryptcocurrency) we need to remember that the price of the bitcoin moves ike any another commodity, whith time and tge growth of the maket cap, the price will estabilize.
Correct any attempt to try to control bitcoin volatility will only be possible by changing the nature of bitcoin in itself at that point our worry will not be volatility, it will be whether or not bitcoin is still a project that we can support or do we need to leave the project, between those two alternatives I will take the volatility any day of the week.

There is no way to "control" it
It can be brought down via genuine adoption by merchants and service providers but we are very, very from that (and may in fact never get there). To make things clear, by genuine adoption I mean a closed loop Bitcoin economy when merchants don't get rid of their bitcoins as soon as they receive them but pay with these bitcoins the wages of their employees. Unless and until they do that en masse, they cannot contribute to lesser Bitcoin volatility in any meaningful way. But this is the only long-term solution (if we don't mean Bitcoin price freezing at 0, of course)

Technically yes as we are the ones (especially the big players) who control and determine the price of Bitcoin. As of right now we are still not recovering from the big sell off that happened around 2990$+ level in which right now people are still selling their position early as they are scared of losing money in terms of value. Now I don't think that volatility is the main concern for its worldwide acceptance but the demand itself of consumers asking Bitcoin to be a payment method is basically non-existent as of the moment. What I see right now is that we have an adequate amount of payment options available for us that is why Bitcoin is not yet being added in a greater scale.
volatility is dependent on the demand, when demand is high then price will also high but when demand will fall then the price will fall down naturally, so that, if demand is controllable then volatility will be controlled. but so far I know, it is not controllable because human nature and taste are very much changeable.
The only thing that might tame it would be increasing eistribution massively, but there'll always be whales when it's so easy to scare people into dumping.
I really thought these price levels would do something but the percentages are often the same. I'd give it a decade or so to see if it calms or continues. The more people vested the more incentive there is to reduce it.

I agree with the many comments here saying that the volatility of bitcoin can't be controlled.
When the demand is high the price is rising and when the price is so high that people see they will have good profits if they sell now, they start selling and the price is falling. Nothing can be done to change that.

This bitcoin cryptocurrency cant be controlled that is really impossible because bitcoin is created so perfect so he is so good fast transactions and many good things so many shops,online stores and others are accepting bitcoin.
Bitcoin doesn't have fast transactions 'as of now' because it is getting crowded and it makes a lot of demand in the network to execute their transactions which makes the confirmation time gets slower and longer because the miners cannot confirm all the transactions in one time. Bitcoin is created just like a currency and the most important feature of bitcoin is being decentralized in my opinion.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).

Is it possible to control bitcoins volatility? No, since bitcoin is decentralized, it is free market, no central authority can artificially control the monetary base of bitcoin according to supply and demand and thus make it less volatile.
Would bitcoin attain price stability in the next few years? Yes. Bitcoins market cap is still small so even a small percentage of trading volume can have a much bigger impact on the price. As more people start using bitcoin and the market cap increases to the point where the price becomes immune to pumps and dumps, the market would stabilize on its own and we would have a stable and reliable currency as a medium of exchange.
