Have Fun )@@( Stay Safe
Volatility will remain so long cryptocurrency or bitcoin is decentralized. Is simple, the reason for volatility as far as cryptocurrency is concern is because it is not moderated or controlled. And so any body can order whatever volume or dump too.

This is why some icos try to regulate how much coin you can order for at times but this is just on their individual platform.
Volatility and decentralization does not have anything in common, look at stock exchanges and forex, they are not decentralized yet you see volatility in the market, as long as there are new investors into any form of investment, the price will be volatile and there is nothing that can be done, the increase in price depends upon the buy and sell order and that determines the market situation.

As compared to cryptocurrency market, the prices of stocks in stock market are quite stable. Unlike various altcoins, they do not suddenly increase or decrease (pump or dump) with 30-40% in a day. Is this because less people are into crypto market and the cryptocurrency prices are controlled by those who have ample amount of coins?

So, will mass adoption stabalize the prices of Bitcoin and altcoins?
most people choose bitcoin because bitcoin is a strong cryptocurrency so that price increases or decreases will not be too significant. most of them make a bitcon become an investment. maybe with a lot of activities using bitcoin, making the price of bitcoin stable.
Even if there is a mass adoption(possible) but still it remains unstable only it lessen its volatility.
The good thing when there is a huge crypto market adoption, it surely it increases it value since the demand will absolutely increase and with that, there is no worries of losing.

Basically there're lots of crypto currencies and altcoins are circulating in the market and its a big competition among them. Its very difficult to make a decision which is the best currency to make them beneficial. Initially investors are connected with trade market since when technology doesn't exist so investors have real trust on trade market and now after bitcoin success, crypto trend has been successful. Investors attracted towards crypto and altcoins. There's no comparison between stock market and crypto or altcoin. Investers should make crypto more stronger.

The stocks are independent of one another. All coins follow bitcoin and whales manipulate the price making the market volatile. Better distribution will prevent this so mainstream could help

It's a very interesting question.

I personally have always thought that stability is a relational thing. Because people still perceive value in fiat terms at the moment, it is incredibly difficult for bitcoin to gain footing as some form of stable currency, because people aren't using it for actual commercial purposes in the majority of the time.

Of course, this will change in the future, which is I think what you're proposing.

I personally think that increased adoption, especially merchant adoption, will certainly help the value of bitcoin become less volatile. Firstly, the increased market cap means that manipulation of the market becomes tougher to do, especially in the short term. Secondly, if people start pricing goods and services in the future in terms of BTC, these goods and services will essentially lay a "foundation" for the price, making it less prone to fluctuations.

Mass adoption by whom ?
The government ?
The people ?
Well you know right now the Bitcoin trading is setting an all time high in many places and still the value of Bitcoins is not that good , let's be honest it's worst as compared to the previous records.

Now I think if the government again allowes Bitcoins and integrate them with the society like normal Fiat then it will be much easier for the process to grow in number and reach a stable amount.

It's really hard to predict so as what will change the Bitcoins price and what won't , but Mass adoption will put a social security on the price cap and could really benefit us.

Other than that only good knows where the prices are heading now.

Mass adoption will surely stabilize the price of crypto as then it will be used for transactions on different platforms and also for payments of goods and services meaning people all across the globe will have cryptos to do whatever it is they want to do thereby keeping the price stable. Remember one of the reasons why price pumped in 2017 was because lots of investors came into the crypto space and when demand is high, price surely goes up and since demand has gone down for a while price has been down. Well i maybe wrong but thats my opinion.

You don't compare Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency to stock,  they are two different things even though their model may look a bit similar.
Moreover, it is possible for Bitcoin to stabilize when it hit a particular price and it may not be an influence of mass adoption. Things like regulation can also affect it towards that direction.

Even with the massive use of cryptocurrency in all countries, its high price volatility will never decrease. As long as the price of cryptocurrency will be based on the relationship between supply and demand, high price volatility of cryptocurrency will always remain. That is, a decentralized cryptocurrency is doomed to always have high price volatility.

There are not less peoples engaged into the cryptocurrencies. Stock prices are stable because they do change once the company/Industry has some major ups and downs rather than going for demand and supply.

Crypto markets run on demand and supply factor so they have high viability and changes from 30% to 40% a day. Stock markets are a bit stable and they don't have these huge changes. Mass adoption can stabilize the prices of small volume coin. It is not possible to stabilize the prices of bitcoins or any such major cryptocurrency.

I don't think cryptocurrencies will be on stable because although they have been addopted by mass i don't think stocks market is stable in the price, they always volatility in the price, for example please see the stocks market of comodities sectors they are volatility in the price. And we know that bitcoin will be comodities sectors when it be addopted by mass. So the price of bitcoin will be always volatility in my own analysis.

Quite the contrary. With the massive use of cryptocurrency and the increase in its price, its level of volatility will only increase. The price of cryptocurrency is very subject to bad and good news. Since its price is completely dependent on supply and demand in the cryptocurrency market, its high volatility will always remain. And especially it will appear at high prices for cryptocurrency, as this will allow a high price amplitude of price fluctuations.

There is trouble abrewing
Why would something that was made to be unstable,
that is the first time i have ever heard someone say that about bitcoin!
what makes you think bitcoin is made to be unstable when it clearly is not?

Quote
will still be expected to be stabilize through environmental or such different external factors? While the large adoption could stack up stone in the balance scale, and it could look like it can balance its price behavior into stable one,
these are not "external factors". it doesn't get any more internal than adoption! it is called "supply and demand" after all. and when the demand grows so much that it stabilizes with a stable supply (as it would be in a couple of years) price would be stable.

Quote
but shouldn't that be happening right now?
no because we have not yet reached mass adoption. not even 1% of it.

DEFINITELY NOT! there will be no steady price of this, it is the people who declare the price which is the best of it.
This is the time that people has the power on everything! therefore there  is no stability as long as there is demand!

There is no guarantee that mass adoption will make coin prices stable, but it is more likely to increase prices. I think the stability will occur if in gunanakan as a payment method.

FABA-BREAK THROUGH IN VENTURE CAPITAL MARKET
Bitcoin needs to become big. Volatility is present in crypto market because it is so small. Just one whale can already change the prices of bitcoin, not to mention altcoins. Stock markets are so huge because market caps are so high. Imagine a whale to raise the price of Tesla stocks just by himself for 5% - impossible...
If mass adoption is the answer? Partially sure. Institutionals are bigger part of the answer.

I think yes, that's because the adoption is not widespread and it's easy to manipulate the market forming the particular groups of influencers.

If the mass adoption of a cryptocurrency increases its price, volatility will only increase, but not stabilize. There will always be bad news and rumors, and at high cryptocurrency prices, the amplitude of oscillations will become large. Therefore, the higher the price of cryptocurrency will rise, the greater will be its volatility.

Not quite. The larger the market, the harder it would be to move it. A quick and easy example that goes against your point are small market cap alts -- they're ridiculously volatile even though no one really talks about them. The more established coins, on the other hand, are far less volatile even with far more FUD. This strongly suggests that the larger a coin grows, the less volatile it becomes. We are nowhere near mass adoption, but once that time comes I could easily see Bitcoin prices being more stable than stocks.
