Liquidity risk and expected cryptocurrency returns
本文研究流动性风险如何影响加密货币的预期收益,发现流动性越差的加密货币预期收益越高,且该结论在多种检验下依然成立。
Abstract This paper examines how liquidity risk is priced in the cross‐section of cryptocurrency returns. In doing so, we use the Amihud measure as a liquidity proxy. By employing the univariate portfolio analysis, the bivariate portfolio analysis, and the Fama‐MacBeth regression analysis, we document a negative relationship between liquidity and cryptocurrency returns. Additional tests demonstrate that this finding is robust to alternative liquidity measurement as well as size screens and show no evidence of a significant intertemporal relationship between liquidity and expected returns for three leading cryptocurrencies. Our conclusions add to the understanding of how markets price cryptocurrencies.
