Volatility of a digital currency depends of the demand of the people. It is a very good thing if it favors to the rise of market price of a certain currency which HODLers are the number 1 benefited to it. On the other side of it, it can hurt those investors who don't know how to HODL when its market price plummets down because they will just sell their coins in fears that its price will never come back again.
yes I think high volatility is not bad, because with the increase in the value of a good thing proves that he has done things a step better than before, for example if the bitcoin price rises from 16k us to 50k us of course it shows a positive response, so we need not question whether it is good or bad.

Amazon's stock is not a medium of exchange, so it being volatile doesn't affect the company's business operations. When Bitcoin is volatile as a medium of exchange, it makes it impossible to conduct business in that medium because profitability it volatile. No business can survive the inability to predict what its assets are worth. If you transact at a bunch of business with 5% margins but the currency you just accepted could be up or down 20% in the next few days, you could be conducting your business at huge losses. Businesses can't function reliably in this environment. The most important aspect of a currency is stability, because the other important attributes (medium of exchange, store of value) arise from the stability. That's where the idea of volatility making Bitcoin an unsuitable currency comes from.
Volatility isn't good unless you sell the peaks and buy the dips. BTC is young and it's going to be volatile for years to come.
Yes thats true , if Bitxoin is not a volatile currency we should be all worry about it and I think it will not be famous as now it remain as cheap like before, cause Bitxoin became popular because of its price nowadays.
Volatility is very bad for slow transactions. After all, it's unpleasant when you make a payment, and the price has already changed for 3 times already. And because of this bitcoin is not recognized in the world.
Volatility isn't that bad, the real issue with transactions is how slow they are, you can send a good fee and yet the confirmation is going to take forever if it comes at all, that is why many people are using other means of sending payments like ETH or LTC.

I don't really think so. If bitcoin is not as volatile as it is now, then people will not be able to earn by investment. Perhaps people could just work for them to earn bitcoin. Then that would mean that bitcoin is no different from the money that we are using right now. Therefore, bitcoin's volatility is definitely a positive thing and not just something that should be eliminated.
