Abstract
Abstract This paper explores financial networks of cryptocurrency prices in both time and frequency domains. We complement the generalized forecast error variance decomposition method based on a large VAR model with network theory to analyze the dynamic network structure and the shock propagation mechanisms across a set of 40 cryptocurrency prices. Results show that the evolving network topology of spillovers in both time and frequency domains helps towards a more comprehensive understanding of the interactions among cryptocurrencies, and that overall spillovers in the cryptocurrency market have significantly increased in the aftermath of COVID-19. Our findings indicate that a significant portion of these spillovers dissipate in the short-run (1–5 days), highlighting the need to consider the frequency persistence of shocks in the network for effective risk management at different target horizons.
期刊介绍:
Quality and Quantity constitutes a point of reference for European and non-European scholars to discuss instruments of methodology for more rigorous scientific results in the social sciences. In the era of biggish data, the journal also provides a publication venue for data scientists who are interested in proposing a new indicator to measure the latent aspects of social, cultural, and political events. Rather than leaning towards one specific methodological school, the journal publishes papers on a mixed method of quantitative and qualitative data. Furthermore, the journal’s key aim is to tackle some methodological pluralism across research cultures. In this context, the journal is open to papers addressing some general logic of empirical research and analysis of the validity and verification of social laws. Thus The journal accepts papers on science metrics and publication ethics and, their related issues affecting methodological practices among researchers.
Quality and Quantity is an interdisciplinary journal which systematically correlates disciplines such as data and information sciences with the other humanities and social sciences. The journal extends discussion of interesting contributions in methodology to scholars worldwide, to promote the scientific development of social research.
