Abstract
This paper investigates the extent of connectedness between uncertainty around CBDC adoption and stablecoins. First, by employing the QVAR framework, we assess how the dynamic connectedness between CBDC uncertainty and stablecoins switches across a broad spectrum of uncertainty conditions. Next, we turn to the indirect linkage between stablecoins and CBDC uncertainty by examining the role of the latter as a driver of the connectedness in stablecoin trading activities. Results of the TVP-VAR framework and the quantile-on-quantile regression approach show that during the time of high market sentiment, investors tend to move away from diversification and reserve certain coin(s) instead.
期刊介绍:
The focus of the North-American Journal of Economics and Finance is on the economics of integration of goods, services, financial markets, at both regional and global levels with the role of economic policy in that process playing an important role. Both theoretical and empirical papers are welcome. Empirical and policy-related papers that rely on data and the experiences of countries outside North America are also welcome. Papers should offer concrete lessons about the ongoing process of globalization, or policy implications about how governments, domestic or international institutions, can improve the coordination of their activities. Empirical analysis should be capable of replication. Authors of accepted papers will be encouraged to supply data and computer programs.
