摘要
We compute optimal hedge ratios between bitcoin and other financial assets by using conditional volatility estimates of different GARCH models for a period over January 03, 2011 to February 19, 2018. Gold is found to provide a better hedge against bitcoin. Following generalized orthogonal GARCH, which offers maximum hedging effectiveness, U.S.$1 long of bitcoin could to be hedged with 70 cents short of gold. Our findings are fairly robust to alternate specifications.
