In my opinion, BTC stabilizes prices because there are so many other altcoin born, they have attracted some investors to hold them. Therefore, BTC has lost a large number of investors holding, selling and buying BTC market should not push up the price of BTC increased.

The reason why bitcoin price is so stable in two thousand eighteen (2018) because the price of bitcoin is not fix price to everyone and the demand of them invertors is getting higher

I don't think bitcoins price has been stable in 2018 the price fluctuations have been double digits multiple days in a row on a few occasions. However if you consider how quick the price rose from 6k to 20k being where it is now is pretty remarkable. But I don't know, if a coin is increasing if you take a longer term view would it still be classed as stable despite the huge short term fluctuations?

Time to look at the basics.

You've a finite amount of this 'digital asset' which has come through ridiculous amounts of regulation and other negative impacts, an ever increasing amount of demand for it and accessibility improving all the time. I very much doubt this 'stability' will last long! Wink

We saw bitcoin bull run in 2017 but now, as usual, we saw a dump like every year.its natural correction but as usual bitcoin price will head on 17k this coming month and then mid-year we will see another bull run.most probably 30k USD soon.

I'd think with more mainstream adoption you would have a more stable Bitcoin price.  Regular people aren't able to trade in and out of things like most veteran crypto traders.  Or they just don't have the time to do so.  That's my guess on it.  I'm sure there are many more factors then that thou.

What do you think is happening?

Is people hoding less their coins?

Is there more manipulation by big whales, speculators or big institutional investors trying to profit the flavour of the moment?

I feel that there are big players "pumping and dumping" in order to manipulate the market to stabilize price and "control" in a certain way the price fluctuation.

Obviously bitcoin is very dangerous for our old corrupted economy, don't you think that in acertain way there's an unusual stop of the past few months trend?
After reaching $20k there's a correction to $17k and then price stabilizes at 11-12k with mini-dips that last seconds before going uptrend...

In my opinion the key factor could be also that if bitcoin reaches $30-50k then it will be very difficult for newcomers to buy bitcoin for buying altcoins in the exchanges.

So that stabilizing the price to an affordable $10k for a while could be a way to engage more people to bitcoinworld.

Or maybe it's all ok, there's no manipuation, it is a stanby before the big run to $50k-100k. Then newcomers will start buying and trading in Ethereum or Litecoin, because at the moment there aren't exchanges accepting fiat money, you have to enter and buy your altcoins directly with cryptocurrencies...

Which in your opinion are the main reasons?
We can see that bitcoin prices are rising incredibly and altcoin prices are going down dramatically. Bitcoin prices are recovering steady and steady, and you can see that more and more people are investing in bitcoins and bitcoins are not being dominated by a large number of bitcoin owners.

i think that the reason is traders, investors are worried about the future of bitcoin because govement's of some countries have plans to control the bitcoin or coinmaket, or ban mining or trading.... they sell their coins.. that makes bitcoin price so table
Yeah the traders often worry about the price after hearing any bad news but they do not know that the price depend on them and if they will not worry about the price and will not sell panic then the price will continue to grow with the passage of time as the trust increases in it and in the strength of the coin.

I think that they have the current situation for BTC today but also the minds are cut off and will begin to understand that because of such instability, Bitcoin can not be a means to pay for purchases of goods or services. There were many people who jumped the wagon when btc was crazily pumping, people who probably don't know what they're investing on

i believe bitcoin still need a long time to become stable, even rightnow, the price is still being manipulated by big whales, they can easily control the market forever whenever they want, due to the pumps and dumps they and even us can get profit from trading, so there is no easy for bitcoin to become stable this soon, but many corrections more to become a better coin.
I agree.It's still too early to say that bitcoin price has become so stable.I know it will happen soon but after 10-20 years maybe.Right now,i think there are really big whales controlling the price and so expect also that from time to time new fluctuations will occur.I think in the last trimester of this year comes a very high speed of increase,and then comes a price correction before this year ends.

I believe the bitcoin price will be very difficult to stabilize in 2018, we can see that in the first 5 weeks of 2018 we have witnessed tremendous changes from the market, the bitcoin price has changed not after $ 19800 milestone. With the restriction of the shipping of water as China, Korea and India, I think bitcoin price will be difficult to fly high, although the bitcoin price has returned to the level $ 9600 and is still on the rise.

from your opinion I feel if all this happens there are big players who toy bitcoin with pump and dump in bulk to get profit. so this is common and in the near future the coin will return to normal and can be at the highest price.

I believe that in 2018 the digital money market will grow exponentially and more and more new projects on older projects will grow stronger. It is possible to see that every country in the world has been very interested in this market and there have been a lot of countries that have joined and recognized bitcoin as a legitimate trading currency. I think in 2018 This bitcoin price will reach $ 50,000.

Maybe Bitcoin finally has a "Fair" value, and become less volatile.

This is actually beneficial to the whole community as volatility was one of the reasons impeding widespread adoption.

Can't say exactly why price is stable this year but I'll talk about one task which was mentioned here: if bitcoin reaches $30-50k then it will be very difficult for newcomers to buy bitcoin for buying altcoins in the exchanges.
I can say that one main reason will be fees which will not give possibility bitcoin to reach 30-50k. If I have to send 100$, why will I pay 20$ in it? So not only newcomers but no one will use it for sending/receiving. It will only become coin for investing but if people won't use it for transactions, coin will die slowly.
Bitcoin cannot reach those prices with a single person trying to buy bitcoin with a one hundred dollar bill, the amount of money needed for that is going to be massive, and it will come mostly from institutional investors getting their hands in as much bitcoin as they can and we can only tell how high the price will become after that since institutional investors are not going to invest money in bitcoin just to lose it.
