Volatility comes about from hype and the size of the userbase shifting. Once the userbase stabilises and Bitcoin becomes normalised in society, the volatility of the currency will decrease at the same time as a natural consequence. Unfortunately that isn't happening any time soon, and volatility prevents the userbase from stabilising, so it creates a negative feedback loop of sorts.
I thought the volatility was mainly concerned with the amount of total market cap for Bitcoin. I realize new players entering and exiting can have an effect as well but if we can reach a 6 figure or even better a 7 figure price tag, won't that in itself curb most of the volatility? Perhaps I got that twisted, but please enlighten me if so!

i believe that no one can control the volatility of bitcoin because im sure it is always depends on what people are doing in their bitcoins, if they sell a lot of bitcoin so for sure the price of  the btc will be afftected by it. also many traders will be panick
Controlling the volatility of Bitcoin is so hard that it seems to be impossible. The behavior of bitcoin's volatility will be difficult to direct, and to have power over for the reason that the market's demand always changes so it is the manner bitcoin will react - change drastically.
Yes it is the main attraction for the investors that they are investing in bitcoin as it is sure the price will be high if once it decreased I am sure bitcoin will   make it impossible by the huge price after some time in price, it is the nature of bitcoin it is volatile and get high then decrease, people always tale the advantage of this, they buy at low price and then hold it till bitcoin price get high and impressively profitable.

I dont think volaility can be even controlled because for it we need to spread global awareness first


The volatility of bitcoin cannot be controlled by the persons who are consuming bitcoin or the individuals who just want to control it since the bitcoin is decentralized not owned by anybody. By the way, bitcoin is decentralized, and there is an enormous acceptance that market depends on the consumers. Controlling for this might have to necessitate centralization, the unique thing people were evading when they got interested in bitcoins.

I don't think anyone can control the volatility of Bitcoin because it's all about the demands and supplies and actually we can't do anything about it.

I think that bitcoin volatility can't be controlled because nobody have enough hashing power or money to start doing something with market nowadays.

But as other members said, if the people unite, they can make this happen. Ever heard of the good Satoshi theory? Satoshi Nakamoto is said that he holds millions of bitcoin and in the Good Satoshi Theory, they said that Satoshi is using that million bitoins to control the price in the market. Anyways, controlling the volatility of bitcoin is very hard.
Maybe yes, if we continually do what we are doing today just like this creating  and implementing good ICOs that can be promoted here and in any other channel just like in social media which is very influencing and encouraging many investors to buy tokens such as bitcoin.

I am not sure if that is really a way to control the volatility of bitcoin since bitcoin without this ICOs and advertising, it is still volatile. It is decentralized so there is no group that control the flow of it in the market. I think the more investor invest in bitcoin, the more volatile the price will be.

I've heard that bitcoin users ie china have a strong network to control bitcoin prices, although this is hard to prove but most of the biggest and dominating exchanges are from china so it's reasonable that they can control.

With a marketcap of over $ 200 billion then it takes enormous money or at least $ 100 billion to control bitcoin, but I'm sure there will not be any crazy people who want to do that so what happens now is purely market.

Currently it can't be but in reality it is very likely possible. As long as bitcoins stay and behave as a decentralized currency it will
always be highly volatile. With the increase and decrease of demands and the conditions surrounding bitcoins with people, investors
and the whales, bitcoins will continue to thrive and attain large market prices. But once Regulation is imposed bitcoin will slowly
lose it's unique volatile essence. Banks and governments are highly aware of this, they can benefit if such a process is ever legalized.
Although I do consider bitcoin's never ending fluctuation a thrill, gives a spark that always excites every individual in the
cryptocurrency market.

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?

Actually this bitcoin volatility can't be controlled because its depend on the situation of the blockchain market.this situation depends on the fund of investment in the exchange trading,if many people hold bitcoin,the volatility price will increase ,while in the other hand if more bitcoin fund in the different exchange trading,because of  selling there coins, the volatility price value  in the market will going down.this is the real nature of bitcoin in the world of cryptocurrency.

Although it might be one of the reasons why business is not adopting bitcoin, I think the volatility is one of the reasons that many traders use bitcoin.  I think if bitcoin was tamed it would lose its appeal to some.
As far as we know that bitcoin is decentralized, and this feature is the characteristic of bitcoin or cryptocurrencies, therefore it can not be controlled. Yep, I also think that volatility is the major reason which makes many people take part in cryptocurrencies. I think that this feature is really helpful, it help me not to worry too much about it because it fluctuates currently, therefore if the value get down, it will recover again.

I think volatility of bitcoin is uncontrollable.  Bitcoin market price is too expensive to control by somebody.  The flow of the btc price is depend on the flow of demand and supply.  When demand will increase bitcoin price will surely gets higher.

I don't think it that Bitcoin's volatility can be controlled, controlling is a strong word, I may say that we can at least manage it by not being affected by FUD and do panic selling whenever we see dips. that way we can somehow help manage the dip, I think.

Dont have faith on btcs. Even if the volatility decreases it would still be prone to mass hacker invasions

In my own opinion, I think the volatility of bitcoin cannot be controlled by someone. Its price is volatile that can be increased or decreased a huge amount. Thats one of the many reasons why bitcoin is famous to some people because of its price volatility.
