I was reading some of the replies in of @mr_jk's thread when he asked what will happen if bitcoin's price became stable?
The replies were unexpected hehehe. Much of them argued why or how can bitcoin be stable? This makes me ask the question do much of the holders of bitcoin want the price to be stable or do they really want it be volatile? I ask this because stability makes bitcoin become a good store of value and medium of exchange. Volatility makes it good for trading and speculation.
I'd rather have Bitcoin be volatile. Stable Bitcoin will make the market boring and the opportunity to gain profit is somehow nullified, though I know it is good to have the price stable for Bitcoin because it will increase the rate of adoption since merchants will not that worried anymore. So for personal interest, I prefer a volatile Bitcoin.
