Bitcoin has a regular and predictable issuance schedule. The only volatility is how it’s traded against other assets measured by other assets.

Quantity of bitcoin is one thing.

Purchasing power of bitcoin is another. The value of bitcoin in dollars is another.

Volatility, by definition, measures changes in asset prices. In order to determine these asset prices you need to have metrics of relative value.

If you measure bitcoin in bitcoin, you can’t measure volatility.
