Bitcoin Risk, Volatility & Diversification Benefits

126 Views

This video discusses the risk and diversification benefits of Bitcoin (BTC). I analyze BTC price data from 2015 to 2021 and compare it to data for the S&P 500, Gold, and the USD/AUD exchange rate. I look at the standard deviation of returns. I then also look at return histograms to consider the returns' skewness and kurtosis. Finally, I undertake a simple linear regression to explore Bitcoin's beta both over time, and recently (i.e., 2020).
