Bitcoin's volatility is a feature and not a bug. It is like the flame that attracts the moths and then they get burned. However, it doesn't end there. A small percentage of the moths that get burned resurrect and then they realise that Bitcoin price is not important at all. And then they take advantage of the bear market. If not for the cycles, newcomers wouldn't have a chance to stack sats.

Adoption is not going to be linear. It will be contorted with lots of ups and downs.
