English doesn't appear to be your first language, so let me explain: compared to stocks, gold and foreign exchange - bitcoin had for many years been an asset that the financial sector has considered relatively 'new' and struggled to price.

SInce you're calling bitcoin 'new' compared to other assets, you should have used the word "relatively". When you say "bitcoin is a relatively new asset" your readers will understand what you mean. For someone with English as their first language, you should know this.

But even as it's become more widely adopted it seems that the biggest downward driver on price is bitcoin's liquidity.

Are saying adoption has a negative impact on Bitcoin? If that's what you're saying then I disagree. Even the volatility of Bitcoin is something that makes it stand apart from other assets. Bitcoin is $58k today, if not for volatility people like me wouldn't be able to buy it at a cheaper price when it was $30k. If the lowest bitcoin can drop to for instance is $57k, there would be no need for holding bitcoin for a long term and it wouldn't be an asset that gives good profit if the highest it can grow to is let's say $60k. Volatility is part of what makes bitcoin a good asset.

As for adoption, Bitcoin is a currency. Of what use is a currency if only a couple of people use it? The more the adoption, the more people accept it as a means of payment.
For P2P transactions, how is that going to be made easy if you have to search the world for people who have BTC and want to exchange?
Both volatility and adoption are good features of bitcoin in my opinion. The problem is, we want it to keep going upwards, forgetting that volatility works both ways.
