volatility is one of the characteristics of bitcoin, which can increase losses and as such making bitcoin investment to be risky.so the only way the impact of volatility can be reduced is by investing in bitcoin for a long term like 10 years or more.
Bitcoin investment is not a risk free investment as you may think, so I don't know were you actually get that idea from.infact as an investor one needs to have a high risk tolerance to be able to hold bitcoin for a longer term .
I don't know how the volatility of Bitcoin increases losses for an investor that have his coin kept in his wallet and holding same for many years ahead. Maybe you are speaking from the angle of a trader which is not what the discussion is not about. As a long term investor, if you hold the opinion that volatility increases losses, then you have missed what volatility is hence, you should go back to the basics and refine your understanding.. I just want to make that correction that volatility does not increase losses for a long term holder.
A real investor never sees Bitcoin's volatility as a problem, but rather sees it as a better opportunity, and the main thing is that those who can see volatility as an opportunity are the only ones who can benefit in the long term, because Bitcoin is a long-term asset, and if this asset is held for a long time, Bitcoin can definitely bring huge profits to an investor, also the lower the price you can deposit Bitcoin, the greater your profit will be if the price increases later or long term. Those who have been holding Bitcoin for a long time, and have been holding it consistently, are now much more successful. And this success will continue to be much greater in the future, so you only have to have a holding mentality, and buy consistently, all in all, create as large a portfolio of your Bitcoin as possible, but success can come with certainty in the long term.
