There was a 2-year decline. The market entered a period of accumulation. Many altcoin charts are deemed to have returned to their starting points. I think a new story might begin. New investors may come to the market. In addition, the internet is becoming more and more common. Trust in banks is decreasing. What will happen in this case. Bitcoin pumppp
especially with the current tensions between the world, I think it's a trigger to use bitcoin, we can see many people buying gold, to secure their assets. and I think bitcoin will be the second option after gold


yes it will be the second option. The only problem is price volatility unlike gold that the movement is not so much movement. If you buy bitcoin and store it in the time you want to use that money will be  difference in price  and that was the main advantage of bitcoin if the price will increase you gain while just storing it .

The volatility is mainly because there isnt a larger community and there are people who hold a big chunk of a coin. These people will try to manipulate the market by creating volatility with their large chunk. If the common man starts using the crypto and holds a small piece of it then we may not have this much volatility.

There are good and bad aspects of everything such as cryptocurrency and Working in crypto such as risk is easy to reap If the cost of investing in crypto fluctuates you can make good money if the price rises and you will be at risk if the price goes down a little. It depends entirely on your investment.
Well that's cryprocurrency for you, we'll encounter lot more risk situation tham a success one because of the volatility of cryptocurrency so it is very important to analyze which coin will you invest your money, if it's worth taking the risk then don't doubt to take it but if the profit that awaits you is way to low than the risk you'll take then drop it but always prepare for the worse so that you'll always be prepared when risk cross path with you and be able to escape and always remember the golden rule, do not invest what you cannot afford to lose.

BBC recently did a interview around the volatility of cryptocurrencies. I think we are still so early in this industry but I would love to know your thoughts about where we are going and how you think the landscape will change.

People in the podcast include:

Marc Warne, Founder, Bittylicious
Jemima Kelly, reporter, FT Alphaville

Well there's risk in everything isn't it?! Bitcoin and crypto has risks too, but in the long run, these are proven to give solutions to many problems of life and hence we should consider the risk as collateral tension for a better profit in future Smiley

 I actually took the risks when I jumped both feet in to crypto, now I am a full time crypto writer and I kinda enjoy my work, of course it comes with its challanges because here we are used to writing very casually but when you write for somewhere important you write very carefully and that takes a lot of time, I know it takes me one full day to write a blog article for example but in the end it all worths it because you get to see people reading what you wrote (there is a viewer count but no reader count so I assume some of those viewers must be reading as well) and also economically its a good job as well. However the risks involved me not being employed or have any kind of insurance and if anything bad happens to me there is no plan B for this business, which is why its quite risky as well.

What do you expect from a speculative asset? Of course there will be volatility and we can't simply escape that. Right now is just an example, reaching as high as $13800 on some exchanges and now down to $9800. You do the math as how much it drop? Just two days ago it was around $13200, and now below 5 digits again, so talking about volatility.  Grin

I agree with that, to be honest when you are talking about risks and rewards most of the time here, we will encounter much more risks and failures rather than rewards, and as what they have said what do you expect? Bitcoin-sphere is a free platform wherein foreign people are free to join, invest and trade here which we don't know if all of the transactions were done legitimately and I can say ome of the things that put us to risk, scams.
It is the reason why we should identify both rewards and the risks before we make investment. I only take a risky investment if the rewards is greater than risk. We should also know how to compute risk and rewards ratio in order for us to be aware if the investment is worth taking or it is just a shit investment that can make our portfolio to become full of losses.

The high price volatility of cryptocurrency is one of the features of this market and you need to get used to it, since the high volatility of a decentralized cryptocurrency will not disappear. It is also the instability of cryptocurrency in the price that attracts investors and traders. The high price volatility of the cryptocurrency must be used to make a profit, but for this you need to know the cryptocurrency market well.

of course the risks and rewards that users will get will be comparable,
when you get a lot of prizes then you will also lose a lot, this is like a natural law

It is also because of the number of its supply and demand that makes its price high or low. Supply and demand for me is always opposite at each other, when there is an increase in supply there would be decrease in demand and if theres is a decrease in supply there would be an increase in demand.
There is problem with this evaluation, if there is a decrease is supply mean you cannot expect a demand especially because the demand depends upon the coin, if you take ETH do you have an idea about the total circulation and still the price is above $100, when it comes to bitcoin the amount of coins that can be mined will be reduced by halving and it will have an impact on the market and that is what is expected and hence the price will increase and that is the idea behind halving when Satoshi introduced and if you follow his path then we expect the market to move higher after halving.
many hope that by halving the amount of bitcoin, it will increase the price, let alone coupled with increased demand. and for its global effect all altcoins will follow suit, as happened in 2017. and that is what is expected of crypto holders, this will have a positive impact on the recovery of people's trust in cryptocurrency

Of course, it would be nice for the supply of coins in the cryptocurrency market to decrease and then Bitcoin's performance would improve several times, but how to create such a situation is not known.  So far, speculators manipulate the cryptocurrency market in this way, regulating the amount of bitcoin in the market and getting exactly the price that is beneficial for them to buy or to sell.

volatility is product of pure manipulation which people call pump and dump


It is also because of the number of its supply and demand that makes its price high or low. Supply and demand for me is always opposite at each other, when there is an increase in supply there would be decrease in demand and if theres is a decrease in supply there would be an increase in demand. Take for example in the normal market wherin it is time for holidays like Christmas and the demand for good and services are high so it would mean that the supply would definitely decrease and the price would be high or would pump drastically.
People will never be satisfied with the stability of crypto currencies because they were attracted to it because of its volatile nature. This is the reason why this market appeared unique to rest of the regular investment markets. If there would have been any way of making this market stable, people would have already done so. I personally feel that whales would not let it happen by any means

I for one don't think it is so much about volatility itself

On regular markets you can get comparable volatility as there are a multitude of investment instruments that are specifically designed to be volatile (for example, so-called volatility indexes, abbreviated as VIX). The difference between regular markets with their volatility tracking indexes and cryptocurrencies is twofold, and neither aspect or factor has anything to do with volatility as such

First of all, cryptomarkets are easily available to regular folks which is not the case with regular markets (the ironic pun seems to be inevitable here). And then, the instruments that such markets offer have a rather short life span as they quickly expire forcing you to liquidate, no matter whether you are in the red or in the green. With crypto, you can just sit on your hands and patiently wait out the bad times (not always helps, but the option is available at all times anyway)
There are a lot of possibilities we should have to think with regards om cryptocurrencies. We should think about the supply and demand of our economy because it helps to decide on how our economic growth been stable in it's status.There are many possible ways on how we should be satisfied on our income and daily earnings because of working online. Like, having a stable and concrete investement in some particular currency that will help you a lot with regards in your money.Gaining more knowledge is the best way on how you will get more rewards and stay away from possible risk in our way on achieving our goals in life.We should be wise on our decisions and make our life better with the help of our prior knowledge.

Gaining experience in this market means a lot. You may not be able to predict the movement of prices. But you need to learn some habits. For example, the price that has gone too high is surely making a comeback. You can calculate at what rate this will happen.

Do you want people to put on headsets and listen to this podcast for 28:33 minutes? why would people do that? I think you should listen to the podcast and then summarize what they said and post in this thread the summary you made

I would love to know your thoughts about where we are going and how you think the landscape will change.

if enter a lot of money in the crypto market, I believe that the volatility will not be very high as it is today, at least we will not see high increases and followed by very large falls

The volatility of prices in Crypto market can not be reduce by this money thing you said. The market might increase with this but later, it will balance and the fluctuation will begin again. The best to do is just to still invest at the right time so that you could gain. The market will always be volatile.
People will never be satisfied with the stability of crypto currencies because they were attracted to it because of its volatile nature. This is the reason why this market appeared unique to rest of the regular investment markets. If there would have been any way of making this market stable, people would have already done so.
