They’re basically being forced to use Bitcoin to get around U.S. sanctions, and that’s part of why there’s growing demand for BTC.

They may use Bitcoin due to the sanction, but they all (both the Russian government, the US, Ukrainian, etc) understand that Bitcoin is the most performing asset. The records and its achievements in the last 16 years can't be denied.

Bitcoin is an unstoppable global currency.
Hopefully, the U.S. also wakes up to the fact that they can’t just sanction anyone forever… because when that happens, Bitcoin steps in to save the day.

Bitcoin is not the solution to everything, and it's not unstoppable either. Bitcoin exists because some government officials and legal teams supported it. They may not proclaim their enthusiasm for Bitcoin in public.

Volatility is already becoming the thing of the past.

You can look at how BTC was shaken in the previous cycles and what it withstands now - and you will see a clear difference.

Volatility is not yet a thing of the past, mate. Price might not be fluctuating the way it used to in the past, but that does not make Bitcoin not volatile again. As long as price still experiences up-and-down movement and it's not stable in one place, then we shouldn't be talking about Bitcoin not being volatile. Only stable coins are not volatile, Bitcoin still can't be completely predicted can only make assumptions and speculations, but you can't predict its next move.

Yes, volatility will never be a thing of the past in the Bitcoin market. Even when the market is not going down more, so it's not stable in price, it's still volatility, and the stablecoin either is also volatility in nature although their level of volatile is different from Bitcoin.
Therefore, stablecoins are not excluded and are also volatile in nature, but they have lower volatility, while Bitcoin has higher volatility.

Volatility is a statistical measure of the amount an asset's price changes during a given period of time.
