However,<strong> Bitcoin <\/strong>gained ground in recent days. <\/p>\n<p>The cryptocurrency business is a<strong> roller coaster.<\/strong> It has high peaks and drastic falls. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Massive retracements<\/strong> are always scary, but seasoned investors tend to see them as buying opportunities,&#8221; said <strong>Mati Greenspan<\/strong>, portfolio manager and founder of Quantum Economics.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ue-c-article__subheadline\">Why is Bitcoin so volatile?<\/h2>\n<p>Nathan Reiff says that <strong>Bitcoin<\/strong> is volatile because it depends on<strong> feelings and projections.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bitcoin&#8217;s price fluctuates because it is influenced by <strong>supply and demand<\/strong>, investor and <strong>user sentiments<\/strong>, government regulations, and media hype,&#8221; Reiff published. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All of these factors work together to create price volatility.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For example: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>-China cracked down on banks completing crypto transactions.<\/p>\n<p>-Tesla will not accept more crypto transactions as a form of payment.<\/p>\n<p>-Elon Musk altered the crypto market by tweeting. <\/p>\n<p>These three reasons <strong>alter the value of cryptocurrencies<\/strong> and the will of investors. <\/p>\n<p>However, the main clue of<strong> volatility <\/strong>relies on its supply and the <strong>lack of central bank control. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Crypto developers say the <strong>added value <\/strong>of all assets is the lack of control from a central entity. However, it is also a curse. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>No central bank or government <\/strong>can step in to support or prop up markets and artificially subdue volatility,&#8221; said former director of research for Fidelity Digital Assets<strong> Ria Bhutoria. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Bitcoin&#8217;s volatility is a trade-off for a <strong>distortion-free market.<\/strong>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>Another reason why Bitcoin is so volatile relies on its <strong>time of existence<\/strong>. Bitcoin has <strong>13 years of life, <\/strong>it is a young asset that needs more analysis time. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While a company that went public yesterday in an<strong> IPO doesn&#8217;t have any history<\/strong>, a company can at least be evaluated on its business prospects, earnings, and cash flow,&#8221;<strong> Peter Boockvar,<\/strong> chief investment officer at Bleakley Advisory Group commented. <\/p>\n<p>[It&#8217;s] only <strong>13 years old<\/strong> and thus doesn&#8217;t have much of trading history.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>(function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(d.getElementById(id))return;js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=&#8221;https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/es_ES\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&amp;version=v2.8&amp;appId=160427764002568&amp;status=true&amp;cookie=true&#8221;;fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}(document,&#8217;script&#8217;,&#8217;facebook-jssdk&#8217;));<br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marca.com\/en\/lifestyle\/us-news\/2022\/05\/21\/62890511268e3ef5448b45ad.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cryptocurrency is a volatile business.
