Is volatility good or bad for bitcoin?
Bitcoin’s price volatility, or how drastically and often its price fluctuates, has been a popular criticism for almost a whole decade. Sure, it can be hard to watch an asset rise and fall in price beyond your wildest expectations, but we need to remember how young bitcoin actually is in the grand scheme of things. Bitcoin was only created in 2009, the US dollar has been around (in its modern form) since about 1913. Bitcoin is destined to grow, and its growth is reflected in its volatility. The good news is that bitcoin’s volatility has been almost exclusively to the upside since 2009.
