DO YOU THINK THE HIGH VOLATILE NATURE OF THE CRYPTO MARKET IS A CONCERN TO BUSINESS OWNERS? DISCUSS.

High volatility is one of the most serious issues with cryptocurrency market, and it is one of the biggest concern for business owners. Many business owners avoid to accept crypto money due to its high volatile nature. Because the values of cryptocurrency change from high to low or low to high in a short period of time, So no one want to take such a big risk.

For example, the owner of a Honda company sells his car for 1BTC, whose worth was about 35,000 Us dollors at that time. And suppose the crypto market crashes the next day and the price of BTC drops to about 30 thousand dollars, it would be a huge loss to the owner of the company and no one would take such a big risk.

This is why the high volatile nature of crypto market is a concern for business owners. So, they avoid to accept the cryptocurrency due to its high volatile nature.

WHAT OTHER FACTORS ARE CURRENTLY LIMITING THE ADOPTION OF CRYPTO AND HOW CAN THIS BE SOLVED

There are many factors that are limiting the adoption of cryptocurrency. Now we will talk some of these factors that limiting the crypto adoption.

• BANKS

The first factor of limiting the adoption of cryptocurrency are banks. If the bank is compared with the crypto then the annual return of the bank is much less than crypto. Because the crypto can gives us much higher returns. And obviously people will invest money in things that will get them higher returns. That is why banks has a danger from crypto and this is the reason the banks give money to media channels to avoid the people from crypto.

• GOVERNMENTS

The second factor that hinders the growth of cryptocurrencies is governments because the government can run cryptocurrencies regularly if it wants to, but they think that people will use cryptocurrencies for illegal purposes. Governments do not legalize cryptocurrency because of its highly volatile nature.

• UNPREDICTABILITY

One aspect limiting cryptocurrency adoption is its unpredictability. Because of its unpredictability, many investors are hesitant to invest in cryptocurrencies. Some people thought that cryptocurrency is a scam and they may be right because we can seen a lot of crypto scams in its history. So, these are the some factors that are limiting the adoption of crypto money.

In the world of cryptocurrency, anyone who wants to buy a cryptocurrency for whatever amount of money is allowed to do so, but in my opinion this should not be the case. Because he can buy a lot with money.

We have seen that some large investors buy a large number of cryptocurrencies and then sell them all at once, which leed us to a volatile market.

If the owners of cryptocurrency allow their customers to buy a limited amount of their cryptocurrency then it is possible to avoid from high volatility. So, according to my thought his is the solution of all the problems.
