Can you explain the reasons behind the volatility of Bitcoin's price? I've noticed that it seems to fluctuate quite drastically and I'm curious about the factors that contribute to this. Is it because of the limited supply of Bitcoin, the high demand for it, or something else entirely? I'd appreciate any insights you have on this topic.
