Low volatility is welcome when it has triumphed. Right now it's a long way from that and stagnation isn't the healthiest of signs.
What seriously good signs are you talking about? Please let us in on the secret.
Many people are ready for the next Bitcoin party to finally start, but the best moments can take a really long time to develop.
Agreed, that there are some 'seriously' good signs.

we've had enough volatility already. exchanges getting hacked, stolen coins getting dumped, etc. the market isn't moving anymore with bad or good news. i think at some point the volatility will vanish and we'll see the price go up or down only a few bucks per month.
Merchants would probably consider taking up bitcoin payments as they see that it has decreased volatility and can now be used on their businesses. I don't think that it will be a major problem for bitcoin, but rather a start of what's coming. Maybe some people are "bored to death" because of the loss of the roller coaster rides, but all in all and in actuality, that's a good sign.
Many people claim "high volatility" makes Bitcoin difficult for businesses to use, hard to hold, etc.

I don't think this will become a serious threat. The most interesting stuff is being played right now, this translates into a stable price because all the moves are being made under the blanket. Whales are buying slowly to not destabilize the market (which wouldn't be beneficial). The 2015-2016 era is the era of stacking up while the software gets better and the infrastructure around it gets built. After 2016 I think we will see some serious shit.
