Topic: Why Bitcoin Is So Volatile - page 10. (Read 1298 times)

The Bitcoin and the cryptocurrencies are affected by the news. Therefore, the frequent fluctuations in Bitcoin prices are very common in this market. So instead of worrying, get used to it by updating the news about cryptocurrencies regularly.

The fundamental price bitcoin falls upon is solution to modern banking.
Arguments such as " There Is Rampant Fraud In Cryptocurrency" and "There Is Rampant Market Manipulation In Cryptocurrency" can be said the same to fiat.
Now i do agree with the last point "Institutional Investors Are Staying Away" but that could change anytime soon when the technology and people are ready for it.

Bitcoin is the digital currency which is using by most of the countries in the world therefore it has so many benefits beside these benefits there are so many factors which have a good impact over it and that's why bitcoin is highly volatile currency of the world. Like the bitcoin price is more then every thing in the world currencies but the currency system is very strong.

                    Well i guess these needs to be talked over and over again, since there are plenty or tons of new users of cryptocurrency or should we say those interested and curious about bitcoin and other cryptos. Although this has been talked for almost several years until now, still we cannot deny the fact that more and more newbies and new people wants to learn crypto, and this is one of the most basic needs to be learned before entering crypto world.

I think that there's no actually exact reason of why bitcoin is volatile in the market. It really depend with the market demand. If what demand changes from time to time , the top market value is proportional with its demand. But even through it is volatile, you can still make profit of it. Just take the risk and thats what others do. As of now it is at the low value if we compare last december but if you can wait and learn how to hold on it, you can earn and that's the advantage of it.

Yes true, bitcoin is definitely unstable currency, its stability depends on the supply and demand. Its the amount of bitcoins available versus the number of people wanted to use them for exchanges or people who wanted to save them thinking that its price will be higher than today. But we all know that bitcoin as a digital currency is still very much new and still on its developing stage. There are a lot of problems and issues facing bitcoin today, however being stable is possible but not as early as now.

Bitcoin price is so volatile because of the sell/buy of it, It's not stable because of this reason, It's not like a real currency, It is used by all countries in the whole world. So don't expect that it will be stable, even news (good or bad) about cryptocurrencies can affect the price immediately.

  According to my point of view Bitcoin price is so volatile due to its speculative nature volatile means not only value is growing up  but the price has to go down also the fluctuating nature of Bitcoin says that bitcoin  price is volatile. Bitcoin is a digital decentralized currency and it is an online internet based  currency and so its value may be fluctuating and not stable .  Some countries like Japan adopt Bitcoin as a friendly currency.

I believe that the volatility is caused because it is so open for manipulation and speculation because it has not any regulation still and it is an open market. I don`t argue with the reason that it is lack of value based

No solid valuation and there are too many factors that will vary the price like security (potential hack). Too many speculators and the market is purely psychological

The price of bitcoin is volatile because it depends on the supply and demand that produce by the user. And countries is the big producer to increase the volume and also to decrease. Most of this time the reason why bitcoin price is still so volatile because of countries who banned and invest in this cryptocurrency. In this kind of market we can't assured the time we make a profit.

There are several reasons to define bitcoin (and also other cryptocurrencies) market as volatile such as absence of regulation, lack of a "fundamental price", manipulations etc. However, we MUST consider the hours of exchange availability in the cryptocurrency market. I've watched a video talking about this topic and it was very persuasive for me. To explain: cryptocurrency market is available 24/7 all around the world, on the other hand fx and stock exchanges have definite working hours. If you take hours into consideration, with a basic calculation, crypto-exchanges' 1 day is approximately equal to almost 3,5 days of regular stock exchanges (NYSE, TYO or LSE).

Recently, Dow Jones had plunged around 8% in just 3 days and it is an "index" not just a stock. Of course it was not a normal thing, it was a "crash", but there are not that few stocks in markets throughout the world (especially in less developed exchanges rather than NYSE etc.) which fluctuates as much as BTC and other cryptocurrencies when you make the math regarding the working hours.

I'm not saying that cryptomarket is not volatile. Sure, at some point, it will have to settle down between a price range and find an intrinsic value but the volatility we have now is not a tsunami for sure. It is an asset, looking for its value constantly.

P.S. the video I mentioned in this post is in Turkish language so I'm not posting it. But if anyone is interested, I can PM.

Bitcoin's value depends on some simple relation between demand and supply. Before some days many news about the ban on crypto were spending and so many people sold their crypto and lost trust in bitcoin so the demand of bitcoin e=was reduced and the price went down but people again are started gaining interest in bitcoin as they know that this is the future and can make them rich in the future so they are again investing and the price of bitcoin is rising now. It has reached 10K USD.

The price of a currency depends on the demand and supply thing so if we have abog demand to a small supply the price goes and the other way arround. The problem of volatility is that bitcoin is so limited so any small change in the demand and supply will cause a change in the price.

Bitcoin is so volatile ,as a cryptocurrency it part of economics all over the world and as a digital currency it will experience inflation and deflation of its value that is why bitcoin is very volatile.

Of course, objectively, bitcoin is volatile, but Bitcoin as an asset class is still only, give or take, $200 billion. Cryptocurrency as a whole, including bitcoin, is $600 billion. If you look at just one company, Apple, they're $900 billion. Bitcoin is less than a quarter of an Apple. It's only two Warren Buffetts.

Yes, Bitcoin is not stable, like all crypto-currencies, but it does not prevent people from believing in it and blockchain technology, while investing with a further prospect of making a profit.

Yes I agree bitcoin is volatile. You dont know what will happen in an hour for example this time btc is around $9500 then after 2 hours it will become $8500 just like that. The time of bitcoin today is so fast, so fast to low and so fast to up.

Bitcoins becomes known in its volatility, as it changes from its value and prices in the market. Due to people get in and out of the market their holded coins somehow affects its value in the market as it is called volatile.

Unstable bitcoin can be caused by uneven demand. Prices will rise when demand is high and prices will be low when demand falls. The case of using Bitcoin volatility in these countries versus Bitcoin volatility in US dollars. Bitcoin is much more volatile
