This paper digs deeper and compares the characteristics of bitcoin mining with gold mining to assess claims that bitcoin is digital gold. We identify 20 differences between gold and bitcoin mining. Gold miners locate where gold is present while bitcoin miners locate where cheap electricity is present. Gold mining has large barriers to entry relative to bitcoin mining making it relatively difficult to start and abandon a gold mine but much easier to start and abandon a bitcoin mine. This is reflected in a greater exposure of gold miners to gold prices and a smaller exposure of bitcoin miners to bitcoin prices. While the analysis demonstrates that bitcoin mining is less complex and less risky than gold mining, the similarities support the idea that bitcoin is digital gold.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45111,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Commodity Markets","volume":"34 ","pages":"Article 100406"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140924456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following similar methods as Cheng et al. (2015), we find index swaps traders reduce their net long positions in response to tightening financial conditions, while commercial swaps traders absorb some of this risk by decreasing their net short positions. This internal swap market netting occurs in three of the four largest agricultural markets: corn, soft red winter wheat, and sugar. Concurrently, we observe a limited swap dealer hedging response in the futures market, especially when compared to other financial traders, consistent with swap market netting.

Market interconnectedness strengthens during extreme market conditions, reflecting historical events. Additionally, bearish markets offer diversification opportunities between these countries and crude oil. This study emphasizes the need for tailored investment strategies, monitoring global oil demand trends, dynamic portfolio management, crude oil inclusion in portfolios, and proactive responses to market players and geopolitical events.

The results reveal the following: (1) Simultaneous opposite correlations are observed, with a significantly positive relationship between attention and returns during high returns and a significantly negative relationship during periods of low returns. The correlation between the two exhibits considerable variation across different market performances. (2) A significant negative correlation exists mainly between attention to physical and opportunity risk and returns, while positive correlations exist mainly between attention to regulatory risk and returns.

We first apply the cross-spectral quantile coherency (QC) to identify the time-frequency interconnectedness among returns of 28 sectors in China's equity market. A spatial autoregressive (SAR) framework based on the QC network is further utilized to identify the indirect effect propagating through the heterogeneous interconnectedness between 28 sectoral equity markets.
