Sometimes the obvious answer isn't the first one to mind. Sound paradoxical?

Which version of #btc would benefit most people?

A steady rise? No!

A crash to zero? Of course not!

Staying volatile? Could be!

For most people in the developing world, the best version would be the most volatile one, the one repeated 70% crashes.

That's the only version of #Bitcoin that will allow people in developing countries to keep getting on board the train.

That's the uncomfortable #truth.

Bitcoin cannot succeed on the West first, because most people don't live in the West.

What do other #nostritches think?

I don't get what is uncomfortable with #Bitcoin volatility

By volatile, I don't just mean bouncy, I mean it may carry on falling below 20k every now and then. The swings may even increase over time.

I suspect that's awkward for corporate investors. Maybe that's a better word?

As I can see, CEX are holding significant amounts of Bitcoin and Bitcoin-ETF exist, so you seem to overestimate the risk compared to how corporate investors see it.

I probably wasn't clear enough in what meant there. I'm sure you're right, but over the last year, bitcoin hasn't been particularly volatile.

I was looking at the scenario, what happens if it returns to its normal level of volatility? How does the corporate investor react in that case?
