It's self-evident that a stable currency is preferable to volatile, though I'm interested in reading an argument to the contrary.

volatile: liability to change rapidly and unpredictably, especially for the worse.

stable: not likely to change or fail; firmly established.

Let me play the devil's advocate, and day that volatility is an enabler for gambling or betting, and people are known to want to bet.
