Today we answer the question: Isn't Volatility a Problem for Bitcoin?

Is Bitcoin Volatility a Problem—or Proof It’s Still Monetizing?

TCB argues that Bitcoin’s volatility is not evidence it is failing as money, but evidence it is still monetizing through global price discovery. Comparing Bitcoin to mature systems like the U.S. dollar is framed as like comparing a startup to a Fortune 500 company; a better comparison is early-stage monetary goods such as gold or emerging national currencies. Bitcoin is described as naturally volatile because its supply is permanently fixed at 21 million, so price—not supply—must adjust to changes in demand, like a never-ending global auction. As adoption grows, liquidity deepens, and markets become more efficient, volatility should gradually decline, which the script says has broadly happened over Bitcoin cycles. It distinguishes short-term price stability from long-term purchasing power, suggests dollars may remain transactional money while Bitcoin serves as long-term savings, and outlines money’s progression from store of value to medium of exchange to unit of account.
