NFTs versus conventional cryptocurrencies: A comparative analysis of market efficiency around COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine conflict
This paper examines the efficiency of the market for non-fungible tokens (NFTs) against the backdrop of the market for fungible tokens (FTs) that includes Bitcoin and Ethereum. We focus on two important shocks: the outbreak of COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. To this end, we employ martingale difference sequence and conditional heteroscedasticity estimation techniques. We find that the efficiency of both markets fluctuates in time and the aforementioned shocks have a profound effect on FTs and NFTs. More specifically, we find that the effect of COVID-19 is heterogeneous for both markets, whereas that of the Russian invasion of Ukraine is homogenous for NFTs but heterogeneous for FTs.
期刊介绍:
The Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance (QREF) attracts and publishes high quality manuscripts that cover topics in the areas of economics, financial economics and finance. The subject matter may be theoretical, empirical or policy related. Emphasis is placed on quality, originality, clear arguments, persuasive evidence, intelligent analysis and clear writing. At least one Special Issue is published per year. These issues have guest editors, are devoted to a single theme and the papers have well known authors. In addition we pride ourselves in being able to provide three to four article "Focus" sections in most of our issues.
